Myself and my friends came here because the restaurant we wanted to go to next door (Thai) was fully booked. Was a good choice! I loved the chicken karaage and gyoza, authentic flavour. Will definitely be back again.

First thing you notice at this store when you walk in is the open kitchen which the chef does the BBQ skewers in, the open kitchen is surprisingly quiet as you could not hear it at all. The presentation and aesthetics are one of the better ones compared to other Asian dinning I've been to in Auckland. However this brings me to the next part. The price is well, shall we say... Expensive. Pictured below, is a dish of chef special" skewers which sell for just south of $30 of which while looks good

Feeling robbed. Disappointed by my food and won’t be back. Ordered online expecting good food but definitely not a 4+ star restaurant. Portions are tiny and lacking flavour. Spent $17 on tofu donburi, $25 on bento box. Not worth it

Fantastic authentic Japanese food. A wide variety of food freshly prepared and cooked in front of you. A packed house told me I wasn't the only one who thought it was good!

I have never left a restaurant review but this the food here is exquisite. No tedious sushi overwhelmed with rice; no basins of noddles in broth which are wholesome and fun to slurp. This is an entirely different level. Tiny portions of tasty pork, lamb, salmon, shrimps wrapped in bacon etc all so simply and intensely what they are, not adulterated or played around with. Everything is cooked on tiny racks over a rectangular ditch containing the charcoal. The maestro Japanese chef stands in his kimono and head scarf watching his customers as he manipulates the delicate and tasty morsels with chopsticks before each is placed in tiny bowls and born by delicate looking Japanese waitresses. I went last night and wish I could go again tonight. And the next night....

Superb skewers, well priced for the quality. The service is friendly and efficient. The chef has a DJ booth style thing where you can see him turning the skewers over a grill, there's a giant lantern and cold asahi. What more do you need?

I always have a great time. Good people, good food, consistent service and quality. I really like when we have a big group and stay by ourselves in a private room as it can be quite loud in the main area because of others. But that doesn't mean that is bad. And it is a BYO
