    Had a lovely experience at HYO. The miso broth was flavourful, the Okonomiyaki was generous and delicious and the music played was refreshingly tasteful and rounded the experience beautifully.

    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.
