My first ever time at this place and the food was distinguishingly good!! I had an amazing plate of seafood yaki udon, sashimi, a bowl of charsiudonburi and a bowl of their signature chicken wings.Ngl, their chicken wings were exquisite for a Japanese cuisine restaurant.

Thank you for coming back Annie.We hope you enjoyed the sushi and your birthday.Once again happy birthday to you.
This was great all around, I had mixed tempura and beef bolgogi teriyaki with some unagi rolls.This is probably the first time in Houston I’ve had a meso soup that was actually hearty and flavorful. The kimchi was next level and blended with the teriyaki beef in a way I cannot describe.You could eat them separately and they would be delicious but together they make two tasty fresh 2 dishes even better than they were alone. The tempura was so crispy and light you could drag a knife across it and feel the perfect crunch without even putting it in your mouth yet. The unagi rolls had the rice cooked perfectly tender without being mushy or too hard.Every bite I was able to identify every ingredient individually instead of a sloppy mess. The last compliment I’d like to make on the food was the spicy mayo.I dislike spicy mayo everywhere and it usually taste like straight chemicals.This was AMAZING.It was so gooooood. Thanks to Hang for the great service And the atmosphere was super great for a date or relaxed dinner
