“Had lunch here today and ordered the chicken katsu donburi special for only $17.50. Best value for lunch, as it also comes with a small bowl of miso soup. The chicken katsu was tasty and the serving size is enough to make me full. The salad is good as well as the carrot tempura with dipping sauce. The staff is nice and friendly. Will come back to try the sushi train or some other food in the menu, and better with my family.”

“Even though it is a little expensive, I can't deny the food tasting very good. I would always order either the Vegetable Tempura Noodles [I think?] or the Pork Tonkotsu one [I really can't remember the exact names but something of the sort]. Come out fairly quick and quality has never changed since I started eating here. It's a great place to treat myself. Not to mention the sushis on the constantly moving conveyor belt are also made to great quality and taste. I especially love that one Aburi Prawn one? It just has such a nice taste to it. Great place awesome 10/10 yum yum delicious.”

“Highly recommended by a Japanese local! The Tonkotsu Ramen here is amazing. They offer three types of ramen: Tonkotsu, Tonkotsu Shoyu, and Yuzu Shoyu. I tried the Tonkotsu and it was absolutely delicious. The noodles were thin with a great texture, and the wontons were soft and juicy. It’s evident that the chef is truly dedicated. I definitely come back! They mentioned that the restaurant had just reopened two weeks ago.”

“Tempura was nicely cooked, udon noodles were fresh and not too soggy. The bento set was good and not too pricey.”
