Diane Lucille S. • January 5, 2014Eating sushi here is a must! Most go to sushi dai but I went to the one on the other end and it was fantastic

Samuel C. • December 28, 2016The soba is a must try. It's probably the closet thing to feeling local. Food comes out quick as well. Remember to put place your tray back to the cleaner/kitchen. Apparently, that's the norm there.

Giacson • October 20, 2019Beautiful traditional Japanese restaurant with lunch set menu. Cozy environment and delicious food, every day specials. I got the steamed pork set (buta no kakuni)

Marcopolos • November 16, 2011Try the yakitori course, brilliant sampler selection. Includes chicken veggis & seafood

Yuko M. • June 9, 2013One of the best Udon ! Waited about 1 hour around weekend lunch time but worth it. cozy Japanese style interior.

Tracy L. • January 16, 2023sukiyaki croquette is very delicious, soft and flavorful meat with crispy outer layer. another snacks they sell is also equally delicious. https://t.co/dtbq0RuhXt

Kara M. • October 18, 2015The food and sake is great! Standing room only, and a little bit away from the main streets but definitely worth making time for. There is at least one English speaking bartender.

Nun A. • April 25, 2018Sake and prices are great. The owner was super friendly and was able to give descriptions and recommendations for sakes to try. Try the smoked horse sashimi with your drink!

Ernesto H. • November 26, 2017Huge gyoza and delicious ramen! Try the half soba tonkotsu.

Tee C. • September 1, 2015One of the best ramen near Around Akihabara.Highly recommended. Good soup and greater noodle. Must try. Need some time to find but worth it.

Mark A. • March 7, 2019Don't eat the sashimi they give you until you've eaten the rice halfway. Once you've eaten it halfway, put your bowl on the counter and ask for it to be filled with soup. Put the sashimi in the soup.

Steven A. • September 2, 2019Fantastic quality sushi and super affordable. Definitely order anything aburi (torched). A little hard to find, just look for exit C6 in Ikebukuro Station (near the Fukutoshin Subway Line gates).

Milad C. • May 8, 2017Excellent sushi 🍣 place. Nothing pretentious. Love ❤️ it. Especially sea eel Anago. Worth waiting for 30+ mins

Mari A. • October 15, 2012Nestled at the foot of tokyo tower, enjoy traditional Japanese cuisine in private rooms tucked throughout the garden grounds. Tofu is the specialty here. Must go for tourists!!

Ange S. • March 20, 2015Tempura servings are HUGE. The イ is a good size, although if you want anago, get the ロ.
