Before you head over

Practical advice on menu choices, pacing, and ambiance

  • Focus on Raw Specialties

    Order the sushi and sashimi over deep-fried dishes like tempura, which can feature a heavier batter.

  • Traditional Fitout Expectations

    Expect a traditional, older dining room rather than contemporary high-concept decor, though the space is clean and comfortable.

  • Avoid Late Dinner Sittings

    Arrive earlier for evening dining to ensure a relaxed pace, as later sittings can feel rushed near closing time.
