My first experience was a good one. I got the Honey pepper chicken with Fried Rice and I really enjoyed. The place looks beautiful inside and out. I will definitely be back for dinner in next time.

I had the katsu curry and the beef ramen, and both were absolutely delicious. The broth was incredibly rich, and flavorful.
The katsu curry was amazing too. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and even the rice was done beautifully.
I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Came here on the first day of opening and left full and satisfied. Food came out fast and very fresh. The noodles had a little bit of spice but not overwhelmingly spicy, and calamari tasted great. Staff were lovely and catered to all of our needs.

The restaurant was clean and modern looking. I would come here again maybe for a nice date night or before a night out. Hidden gem indeed and fairly cheap as well!
