Reviews
"Authentic Japanese izakaya with a wide selection of delicious Japanese food, everything from ramen and sashimi to curry and bentos. Lots of great side dishes too, I personally enjoy the natto, sushi to pepper and tsukemono. They also have plenty of Japanese beers and sake. Open pretty late too (11pm) for when you get a late night craving for Japanese food."
"This was a great find while on a business trip to San Jose. It is small, crowded, and has a very authentic feel to it. The food was amazing and there was a nice variety of options on the menu in addition to some daily fresh catches. A bento box is a good way to try some of the options and you can also order small piece of sushi and sashimi or larger options to share. Expect to wait if you get there after 7."
"Cozy authentic fabulous! As good as it gets, got lucky we stumbled on this spot after attending an event nearby. Do try the chirashi and nigiri choices, particularly Uni. It’s the best way to experience the deftness and skill of the sushi chefs. Seat at the bar is perfect, feels like warp travel to Japan!! Sapporo is a great complement, even the green tea! Must visit when in the area!"
"Great food and fair pricing. Came across this restaurant by accident and decided to give it a try. After waiting in line for quite some time (this has happened to us various times, it is worth the wait but it won't be quick. If you're super hungry or in a hurry go someplace else). The food and the atmosphere both feel very fresh and authentic. We were seated at the bar so we got to see the chef prepare our meal. We appreciated the care and craftsmanship that they put into our meal. We will return soon."
"Went in with low expectations but the food is super authentic and reminded me of hole-in-the-wall joints in Japan. Massive menu with plenty of options to hit your Japanese cravings and they did not sacrifice quality for quantity. Our group liked every dish we ordered! Place is quite small so we had a long wait, but once you sit down service is prompt!"
