We were given a free sushi starter upon entry, to eat whilst we viewed the menu, which was a very nice touch. Food was delicious, staff were so friendly. Overall a great dinning experience : )

Great sushi - great range of menu items - the wasabi prawns were excellent. We were a bit overwhelmed when everything came to the table almost at once - but that's our only (very minor) complaint.

Enjoyed a family celebration dinner. Have eaten here many times. Always able to get a table. Japanese food and beers were good. Unfortunately only Moscato sparkling wine. Would have preferred something drier. Shared entree dish arrived after the mains rather than with them as requested. Otherwise a good dining experience.

The venue was clean and well placed, the service was good, the people obliging and welcoming but the food was a big let down, the scallops were delicious but nothing else appeared as fresh as it should have been. Price was appropriate if the food was fresher.

Food was generally very good. Had been there once before. It was quite busy with lots of people coming in in out. This added quite a bit of atmosphere. We had a set banquet, which was very good (except for one dish - we thought the main was a little ordinary). The Tempura, Potato Croquets and sushi dishes were really good. I will go back ........

The tempura & sukiyaki was great. Matched with a warm sake. The waitress was very accomodating and friendly. Would definitely come back again in the near future. My 10 yr old daughter loved the tonkatsu with omi fried rice.

Food was cold and flavorless. Tasted like it had just been defrosted. Plenty of staff hanging around, but pretty poor service. Won't be going back.

The sashimi & miso soup were the only dishes we enjoyed. The sizzling seafood plate was not sizzling, lacked flavour and the sauce was runny. The calamari was tough and the prawns were overcooked. The table water was warm so I had to buy mineral water. We would not eat here again.

The food was nice as always, but service was lacking. It took half an hour to be offered a drink. Food came quickly but mains were brought out while we were still having our soup. They just need to polish this up a bit.

Staff are friendly and the food comes quickly. There is a slight language barrier with some staff but overall it was lovely. All sushi sashimi and rolls are a must and the best part of the menu.

The waitress forgot our entree order of goyoza and the katsu from the bento box was dead cold despite everything else being ok. Told the waitress about it and nothing was done until about 10 minutes after I finished my meal and they replaced it freshly cooked. The teriyaki sauce on the teriyaki tofu was also very runny. It’s cheap but you get what you pay for.
