Excellent food but service was average. I used to be a weekly client with an average spend of ~$80 for 1 person and tipped at least 20% but stopped going because at times they lost my reservation (you have to call and they write it down on paper because they do not have an online or digital system) so made me wait and stuck me wherever they could. Otherwise, I would continue to be a regular.

Food, service and ambient are at its bare minimum. Very slow service, crowded, and under staffed. Authentic but in very small portions and over priced. Paying the toll, driving to the city will cost less and taste far better.

Holy moly this was INCREDIBLE. Amazing food, the skewers are great but their appetizers are so good too. Too many things that we wanted to try so we have to come back again. It is pricier (we spent around $40 a person without ordering alcohol) but totally worth it. Recommend the fried shishito and fried baby crab for appetizers and chicken neck and chicken thigh/green onion although all the skewers we had were good. I don't drink but a lot of the menu I'm sure would be great with their beer. I also appreciate how the menu has very traditional Japanese izakaya items without worrying about what people unfamiliar with it would think (items like cartilage or liver that most westernized places would never put on the menu).<br>It's a small place that fills up fast so getting a reservation is recommended. And groups larger than 4 might be tough

First time, food was amazing but like the other reviews it definitely adds up. However the quality was worth it.
