My only critique is I wish more places did a mix up of what you can order. I like to try different things and I can never eat more than a starter & a main. Would love to see more set menus where you can try a bit of everything. Plus I'm greedy and get bored of the same thing lol I had pumpkin katsu...so delicious, never had that before, really tasty. Then chicken Katsu which is chicken in bread crumbs, smothered with lovely curry sauce and noodles. Quite a lot on my plate so I shared it with my BF. We also ordered variety of sushi but I wished I had the meat rather than the fish. All in all I've had a lovely evening with my friends & my man stuffing our faces drinking my birthday gin.

I may have found my Japanese food refuge in Birmingham. (See previous review of another Japanese…read morejoint for clarification). So I came here for lunch on a Wednesday and wanted to try it out to see if it was worth another visit, particularly with the hubs. This place is definitely nice, kind of "bougie" but not intimidating. I like that it's just a Japanese restaurant and not combined with other cuisines. My selection: spider maki (soft-shell crab rolls), and the lunch special of smoked (?) mackerel nigiri. I washed them down with a melon soda that I hadn't had in a loong time. It was tempting to try other sushi, but I have a soft spot for soft-shell crab rolls (say that three times fast). I'll come here again.

The Teppanyaki chefs are very talented and put on a real show for you while cooking the food. They also serve Sushi, Sashimi and Yakitori. I am lucky enough to have eaten Japanese food in Tokyo so the bar is set quite high fo me in terms of quality and authenticity. While this restaurant appears to be Chinese run rather than Japanese, the food still tastes authentic and the experience is very worthwhile. The Sake is great too, especially warm. Highly recommended, only loses one star for the prices.

Called Saturday evening and tried a mixture of dishes…read more The Teppanyaki bit itself is great fun: around 12 seats are arranged around a metal hot plate and the (shared) chef works in front of you. In addition to preparing the food he flourishes his tools, juggles with some of the implements and even (optionally) threw the bowls fried rice to the customers! Somehow everyone I saw trying this managed to catch it, which was a relief. For starters we had Chicken Yakitori (chicken on skewers with leek and yakitori sauce), Harumaki (deep fried Japanese spring rolls) and Prawn Tempura: these varied from £4-5.50 per portion and I'd suggest one or two each as the dishes are small but tasty. We didn't try the Sushi, Makimono, Temaki or Sahimi, although some of the others at the shared table did and it looked nicely presented. For the mains (£10-17) we went with Traditional Teppanyaki: this is the food that the chef prepares in front of you on the hot plate. This is safe, but I don't think it would be a good idea for very young children. We had Tuna filet steak seared and served with teriyaki sauce and chopped pickled ginger; Scottish sirloin Hibachi Steak which was served to order, in our case rare. The steak and teriyaki sauce was lovely, the tuna was very nice but a little overcooked to our tastes. This was accompanied by egg fried rice with chicken at the start (£4.00), fried mushrooms and bean sprouts at the end (included in the cost). Everything was nicely cooked and very tasty. We had a bottle of Australian Merlot, which was good value at under £15. The food was good value, the staff were helpful and polite, and there is a reasonable amount of parking outside. Highly recommended.

They had it going around a few times for no reason which got a little tiring. Spicy miso soup was delicious! Full of tofu and veggies it had a lot of flavor. The spider roll was big and tasty. Marinated bamboo shoots were a nice touch. The mixed sushi platter with a long name I can't recall was great. This was enough to share between two people. Hamachi, salmon and eel were of excellent quality. Tuna was average. Rolls were good. Overall a nice place for a date and worth the slightly higher prices.

The bento boxes are generous, and I am a huge fan of their katsu curry sauce. It seems like portion sizes vary though-- sometimes it seems like you're really getting a bang for your buck, other times it feels like you've paid way too much. They have such a varied menu with options that appeal to everyone (who wants to try Japanese food), methinks. Very good-- definitely not particularly refined cuisine, but it doesn't give off the vibe that it's trying to be. It's 'fun' food. My main qualm is that I find them to be just a *tad* overpriced. I also find the restaurant space and seating to be a bit jarring and uncomfortable. The plastic-bench-picnic table vibe doesn't really match the price or presentation of the food. The restaurant is very small but feels very hectic. I get claustrophobic in there when it's busy. That said, the management is incredibly friendly and helpful (had a really nice chat with the manager), and again, the food hasn't disappointed yet.

It loses 1/4 star for being quite expensive compared to what I am used to in London (strangely I have found most decent restaurants in the countryside to be more expensive than what I would pay in London), and 3/4 star for only accepting cash payments.
