My first time in the place, and it was an okay experience. I came in later during the day and was looking for something quick to eat. I ordered their Takoyaki along with their Chocolate Temptation Cake. The wait time was quite long but the food was pretty good. I then ordered a vanilla latte which was descent compared to what is in the area. But despite that, the service was nice and friendly.

Went early in the morning, nice and quiet. Only person there for a few hours, perfect while I was studying. Got the cocoa smoothie and grilled mackerel for $20. Very delicious! The employee that helped me was very nice, helped me to decide what I wanted :). Definitely planning to come back for more study sessions!

Finally tried this place after seeing this for years back when I went to UTA. Parking is a little inconvenient because you can only get in through a one way and there aren’t alternative entrances. The outside is a little run down and the inside isn’t all too flattering. Despite the menu being somewhat basic, the food itself isn’t too bad. It’s not amazing or the best Japanese food, but it’s good food for a decent price. The beef udon was delicious, noodles soft and thick, it wasn’t too saucy. I added soy sauce and spices to take the flavor up a notch. The Japanese chicken katsu with curry tasted great. I enjoyed the flavor. The mango green tea was good. It comes pretty sweet so I asked to do 50% sugar and it was still sweet. I think I could have lowered it to 25%. Whenever you get water (you have to ask), get it with ice. Water by itself without ice comes lukewarm. WiFi there is strong.

I must say 30 dollars for that limited amount of food, and the fact that they didn't have any authentic Japanese sauces, it was mid at best. The chicken was good, the unagi was good, but everything else could have been replaced with fries. And for 30 dollars to spent on food and to be just as hungry when you show up, not worth it.

Jan. 2021 - 5 Stars Loved my Pork Katsu Bento box. The pork was so crispy and tasty. Nov. 2019 - 5 Stars We ordered Yaki Soba, Stewed Pork Bento box, and Black Garlic Ramen. All 3 meals came with free tea drinks. We chose 2 boba teas. We really enjoyed all 3 dishes. The ramen was great and the bento box was really good too. I'm bumping this review up to 5 Stars with the better experience over a year ago. Nov. 2018 - 4 Stars We came here for boba teas and some sushi. The place is nice and clean and the employees are very friendly. Seating space is not as large as it seems from the outside. The boba teas were OK and the sushi seemed a little dry.
