I absolutely love this place! I meant to write a review after our first visit but didn't get around…read moreto it, and before I knew it, we were back for a second time within a week. That should tell you something!
Both times, we went fairly early for dinner, around 5/5:30pm, and sat at the bar. We were greeted immediately when we walked in, and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. We had the same server both times, and she was wonderful! I'll have to get her name next time so I can give her a proper shoutout. What also stood out was how attentive the entire staff was. Multiple people checked on us or simply stopped to say hello. Such a great atmosphere and genuinely wonderful people!
Now, the food! Everything we've tried has been fantastic...both times!
On our first visit, we started with the edamame and gyoza, both delicious! I ordered sushi, which was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and filling. My boyfriend had the chicken fried rice, and it was so good that I definitely helped myself to more than a few bites! And saki, very delicious sake!
The second time, we couldn't resist ordering the edamame and gyoza again! I tried the bulgogi, and it was excellent. The meat was great quality, tender and flavorful, with a delicious, rich sauce that complemented everything perfectly without drowning the dish. My boyfriend ordered the chicken teriyaki, which was also really well prepared and delicious.
I'm including pictures, but I have to mention that the portions are fantastic! Some of the photos don't do them justice because we were already digging in before I thought to take pictures!
The location is easy to get to, with a small parking lot and some free street parking nearby. We've gone early enough to beat the dinner crowd, but both times we watched the place fill up by the time we left. Clearly, we're not the only ones enjoying it!
Between the delicious food, generous portions, friendly staff, and great service, this place has quickly become one of our favorites. It's a regular spot for us now!
