    Our 1st awaited visit. Service was a little slow but food was great. We'll definitely be back to try the bento box lunches :-)

    Great Japanese street food place. If you ask me how are my Oni, I will answer that it was excellent - almost too small! you have to come with accompanied to share and taste the different options. I felt a ONI was not enough, two would have been too much! will come again to try their pancakes! Service was quite slow.

    Interesting menu, charming service and a good buzz. Only critique is that the food took very long to come out. We sat down at 19h45 and were finally served at 20h30. I would definitely still return though.

    I cannot recommend this establishment highly enough. I recently celebrated my birthday here, and the team was incredibly accommodating. In the special requests section of my DinePlan reservation, I mentioned that a few of my guests were Muslim and asked if there were any Halaal options available. I honestly didn’t expect a response, as most places don’t follow up on such requests — but they went above and beyond. Not only did they acknowledge my note, but they also ensured everyone felt welcome and cared for. The atmosphere was perfect, the service was exceptional, and they even surprised me with a beautiful birthday dessert. I would absolutely book here again.
