Exquisite restaurant where the staff were very friendly! The quality of food held up to the prices and the drinks were delightful. My partner and I had the Help Me, Obi Wan Kenobi dish from the menu which allowed us to try a range of food items to share. Everything was well cooked and the flavours were amazing. Highly recommend a visit and suggest making a reservation before you go.

We came here on a Friday night and the place was bustling. There were so many temptations on the menu we wanted to eat everything. Finally, we chose “Help Me, Obi-Wan Kenobi” to enjoy their Omakase option for between $55-$65.

Tried a variety of dishes including the potato gems, seared salmon rolls, wasabi octopus, ceviche, chicken karaage & the matcha cheesecake. Could not identify a single fault in any of the dishes ordered as everything was made to perfection. I’m not a huge fan of matcha but when we ordered our first matcha cheesecake we opted for a 2nd slice. If you’re after quality Japanese thats reasonably priced then this is the place to go. The staff were warm and welcoming and the atmosphere inside was fantastic.
