On my food journey through Berlin was this one of the stops I enjoyed more than others…read more This place is a rather small restaurant with smaller portions but it is good food for people who enjoy eating rather than trying to satisfy an "all-you-can-eat-appetite". The menu is nice and easy to cover - about 8 appetizer, 6 udon soups and 6 don dishes which allows you to get a good feel for what they are all about in one sitting. My friend and I shared the japanese omelette and the gyazu as an appetizer which I can both recommend. I chose the Gyu Don which they actually didn't have and what kinda caused me to give 4 stars only. We then actually ordered the sake don and the chicken terriyaki don. Both looked and tasted absolutely fantastic! To complete the experience we chose the "3 out of 8 sake sampler" for 12€ that allows you to trial 3 of the 8 sake they offer in their restaurant. Whenever I am back there is just Onigiri and Udon left to try. Check this place out! Really good...

Totally enjoyed. Gyu don was just the way I wanted it, rice was well-covered in sauce, but not soggy nor swimming as some other Japanese restaurents I experienced. The only issue we had was the portion of Sake don, it would have been perfect if the portion had been as generous as Gyu don. However, the service was pleasant. We would definitely go back.

We didn't realize Shibuya was literally in the shadow of Uber Stadium and, since information is…read morevaluable, lack of information is costly, so we paid 68 Euros for the food shown in my photos. 8 pieces of sushi, 2 bowls of ramen, 1 coke 68 Euros, or $78 dollars for lunch. How was the food? It was fine. Not exceptional, not bad. But the price tag was the same had we been dining at a pro sports event or concert: excessively expensive. As soon as we arrived and entered the restaurant within 50 steps of the stadium we knew the prices would be gouging. We considered going somewhere else but I had scheduled meetings for it was a Thursday at noon and time was valuable, expensive even, and our expensive, valuable time was traded for expensive, but pedestrian, food.

In Berlin visiting from America. I'm a vegetarian and was looking for a good Japanese place to eat…read moreat for dinner. Found this place and was extremely pleased. My boyfriend and I were able to get 2 drinks, 2 entrees, and 3 appetizers for the price of about 60€, which we consider a steal as we got a large amount of food and many variations instead of one expensive dish. The waiters were kind and able to speak to me in English. The food cane out fast and was super good! My local boyfriend has now recommended this place to his friends.

You all talked about the food, yes it's very good…read more But there was just one male waiter, who was acting super weird against me. I happened to be the asian guy and my friend a Berliner. And I'm not usually this sensitive but this weird shit really got on my nerves. The reservation was made by my friend, and the waiter denied my request to take the seat only until my friend showed up, even if I had all the informations needed. At the end I paid the bill, and he acted as if I didn't exist, only trying to interact with my friend instead, and again, pushed me, giving orders like "hold it", when I simply tried to attached my card to the machine. It was too aggressive for a waiter's body language. There was so much cringe in the air that I had to laugh, finally he realized my presence and gave me this shocked look as if i came from nowhere. And you know what, all these narrations don't actually come from me, but from my white friend, with whom this waiter was, compared to what I experienced, perfectly polite and friendly. To be fair, other waiters were really kind and attentive. The way they talked to me and my friend was equally nice as professionals. So we can be almost sure that it was not me being a bitch. He couldn't hide his discriminations or make it even just a bit easier to ignore. And I will not ignore or tolerate such behavior. So here you go. And yeh, good luck with your special charm my guy.

The avocado roll was downright inedible. Its inscrutable popularity was clear when I came in to find 80% of the tables empty but reserved, but I was told I could sit down "if it's quick". I would advise them to be politer and at the same time more assertive about tables without reservation. I ended up taking the food to go, feeling unwelcome -- and this isn't my first rodeo with German table service by any means. You can do better than this place, especially given that it's right by U Rathaus Neukölln. Hop on and ride away --

A good looking bowl can be deceiving…read more I had men men on my list of ramen in Berlin to try from the pictures alone. It just recently opened after a serious renovation. I got the shoyu ramen. Portion size is a little small. Noodles were perfectly al dente and a good diameter. Low alkalinity in the flour mix so they tasted a bit like pasta to me. Broth was salted correctly but was missing the savory notes that make the salt tolerable. Seemed to be chicken based. Very little fat in the bowl. Pork tasted like sliced tenderloin. Not bad but definitely not what I want in a bowl of ramen. Too chewy and under seasoned. The egg was in between hardboil and soft boil. Some of it had solidified and it did not appear to be marinated. Bean sprouts, sprouts, spring onion, and boc choy were all prepared well. There were elements here that have potential but I wouldn't come back again unless I hear it has changed a lot.

Takoyaki is a speciality in this restaurant and as simple as that I obviously had to get them. So far these were the best Takoyakis I had in Germany but they are a rare species to begin with. Unfortunately I have one major complaint. The Takoyakis were not fresh and hot. They came out very fast which is surprising considering how long it usually takes to make them. I can only assume they were pre-prepared and finished to order. You could argue that I took pictures but I only needed about 5 minutes for that and all the Takoyakis I had in Japan still burned my mouth even after that time. These here were warm and could be eaten as a whole which I would never do in Japan! SERVICE Lovely service. The staff also explained the different Takoyaki variants on your plate at the table. ATMOSPHERE Small and simple restaurant. I decided to sit at a table outside because I felt it was nothing special. RATING If my Takoyakis were hot and "fresh" it would have taken me back to Japan instantly. I think when you put an item on the front of your menu, you should give it your best even if the customer has to wait. I will gladly wait thirty minutes or longer for hot and fresh Takoyakis. They still get my recommendation!
