Rock RainesRock Raines: Charming, old-school vibe. Food is prepared lovingly but don’t expect any sort of elegance in the service. Thought entrees were a bit overpriced

Lisa Marie Phoenix J.Lisa Marie Phoenix Jackson: Favorite Japanese restaurant near the office. I'd recommend sitting at the back bar for 1 of the 10.75 daily lunch specials or the front bar for green tea, ebi tempura rolls, & niku udon for dinner.

Christen D.Christen Duong: Hang a right at the entrance for the front bar. Find a seat among the Japanese salarymen and trust the staff to provide comforting food and conversation.

Alex G.Alex Guevara: Friendly service and old school Japanese decor! It's surprisingly bigger than I thought. Try the deep fried veggies and meat! (Kushiage katsu)
