    One of the best communication between customer and owner. At each stage of the booking there is an email, really love this idea. Services very attentive and excellent food presentation. I loved the duck aubergine with the Madeira sauce; the meat was so tender only problem was there was not enough of it. Same go for the sashimi of ge day. I thought it was costly for the size. Taste wise amazing; wagyu beef tataki, blue spot emperor as well as the desert. A good date night meals overall.

    I recently had an exceptional dining experience at this Japanese tapas restaurant. From the moment I entered, the service was prompt and friendly. As it is a small restaurant, I highly recommend making a booking in advance. One dish that stood out to me was the Tuna toro onsen egg. It was so good that I couldn't resist ordering a second portion! However, I am already looking forward to my next visit in order to try other enticing dishes. During my dinner, I had the opportunity to try eight different dishes, including dessert, and I can confidently say that everything was delightful. The scallops and duck were particular highlights for me, and the quick service ensured that all eight dishes were brought out in about one hour and fifteen minutes. The staff were incredibly friendly throughout the meal. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an amazing dining experience. The combination of exceptional food, friendly service, and great atmosphere make it a truly memorable place.

Will certainly go back.

    Due to the great reviews, visited the restaurant for quality meals. Ordered couple of mains only to realize that the place was a Japanese tapas bar not a full restaurant. Only our table was eating whilst others were there to drink and socialize. If you are going there for food, wouldn’t d recommend it. The service was good however splitting the bills was a bit of a challenge. I’m sure their bar is fine but its a bar more than a restaurant. Everything had a fusion to the Japanese traditional cuisine. Friend stated why is there rice cereal on top of the main dish. The okonomiyaki and sashimi of the day was pleasant. Otherwise mediocre compared to high end Japanese food in other cities.

    Very attentive staff. You can tell the authencity of this place from the moment you step in the restaurant. Can’t find any fault to this place. Food tasted good and fresh. My only opinion is though traditional, the selection on the dining menu is very limited . Would love to come back more often again if the menu can be updated with more choices.

    Food was exceptional. The service was prompt and friendly. It's a small restaurant so bookings are essential. My favourite dish was the Tuna toro onsen egg! It was so good, I had to order a second portion! Looking forward to going back again to try other dishes. The pork belly at the next table looked amazing and the chicken karage portions are huge.

    Love this place but dropped one star for food as we prefer our pork belly with crackle.. it was more of a pulled pork. The staff are attentive, it's smaller in size which gives it a great atmosphere. Worth the visit.

👍👍 Been in this more than once over an ongoing period. Highly recommended as a unique bookshop cafe. Morning teas and cake great. Great concept of a cafe with bookshop. Plenty of other venues to explore in area too. Great access to public transport.
