Good was fantastic, but the vibe and service was hard to swallow. When we walked it in was an absolute ghost town even though it was a Saturday evening. No big deal. I don’t mind some peace and quiet! But the hostess asked if we had a reservation and it felt odd how she said it. Weird, as empty as this place is, but yes, we do! We had a pretty big group and wanted to make sure there was no issue. Then when we sat down, there were three servers asking about drinks, waters, giving menus, etc., which felt promising, but then 2 of them just kinda hovered oddly while one of them scrambled to cover all of us. Food came out oddly separated because he was the only one running the food, table lined with empty drinks, it made no sense. Especially because these other two lady’s were right there almost the whole time because the restaurant was still empty. I asked one of the to help him and she began refilling water and taking empty plates. Just weird. The hardest part to imagine about the experience was all of the food was delicious and unique! The pork skewers were the fav, and the ceviche was unique and tasty as well. Just needs some help with management, and it’d be a great spot. I’d give it another shot just because the food was great!

We happened to come across this spot while we were out and just needed somewhere to pass the time. We kept it simple and ordered a Sapporo, a lemonade, a side of rice, and a cup of their tri-mushroom consommé. The soup was amazing! It came with one mushroom ravioli, honestly, two would’ve been perfect, but it was still delicious either way.

This place is awesome! Food was super tasty and the portions were good. Staff was really friendly and made us feel welcome. Chill vibe and a great spot to grab a bite. Definitely coming back next time I’m around!
