More of a self service place and no frills - but the food is amazing!! People complain about the lack of sit down environment but I feel like it’s actually a great place for hanging out and eating some really amazing curry! The portion size is great too. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Japanese restaurant. I ordered the lunch special with teriyaki chicken and side of tempura and tonkatsu. The tempura was genuinely the best tempura I've had in my life. It was crispy yet flakey and light. Didn't feel oily but had fantastic flavor. The teriyaki chicken was also excellent. The tonkatsu was ok but not bad. Only negative would have been the green tea was something I could've made at home using a tea bag. I would've preferred green tea brewed by the establishment like some other restaurants. My partner ordered some sushi and they were very generous with the amount of fatty tuna. In general, still a fantastic restaurant. The lunch special was about 19 for two sides. And with two orders of sushi was still under 60. Not bad value.

I went to a Japanese restaurant with my friends today. It had been two years since I last ate sushi, so I decided to gather some friends and go out to eat. We ended up finding this restaurant, and it was amazing. The food is delicious, the service is great, and the dishes are served very quickly.

Food here was tasty and service was great. The curry udon broth was very good. The tonkatsu was acceptable, could have been slightly less dry, but tonkatsu is usually on the drier side anyway. The teriyaki salmon was really yummy especially with rice. Super crisp. The tori karaage was only okay, probably wouldn't order it again just because I felt it wasn't worth paying extra for along with the main.

Open till 9 PM, very clean super nice and Hella good.... The menu is packed with really cool options for sushi, and the fish was fresh and delicious. We ordered a quick dinner and ordered a few rolls enjoyed everything, but most importantly the people you’re working are super nice.

Small homey place. Amazing curry sauce. Got the katsu curry and karaage. So so good. Very nice staff. Update - they are closing... see picture I am attaching. So sad, nice people and delicious food.

Came here for dinner on a Saturday night after some rock climbing. Luckily we put our name down right before a bunch of groups came and we got seated in a few minutes. Otherwise it was looking to be at least a 20 min wait. Ordering was through your phone. You also pay on your phone. Water is self serve. Food comes out on disposable plates. So turn around for tables can be pretty quick! They have their system nailed down. All the food came out quickly and it was all delicious. But oh my god the pork katsu. That first bite was heavenly and I will have to order it every single time! We all got a variety from karage to chicken katsu but the pork...always pork from now on. It was tender and just melted in my mouth. And the fry was perfectly crispy. I can't wait to come back!

The most authentic Japanese curry I’ve ever had in the U.S.! Made us miss our vacation in Osaka the curry is addicting, and the salad and sides that come with it complimented the meal so well. You have to order using a QR code, and the wait can be a little long, but it was so worth it! Would love to come back again!
