Food not clean. My spouse got diarrhea 20 mins after dinner at this place. She had salmon meishi with uni. Sashimi salad. Something is not good.

Highly recommend salmon avacado carpaccio, salmon sashimi and niku don. It's really fresh. Unagi don is also good, despite a bit too much rice. Overall great Japanese food with decent price. Note that they didn't provide free water. They charged $1 for bottled water.

The food here was AMAZING. We got seated in one of those booths that you needed to take your shoes off. It was like a private dining experience. There is so much attention to detail in each dish. My group of 4 adults ordered the aburi salmon carpaccio, vegetable okonomiyaki, premium Kani chirashi, deluxe meshi with uni, and premium sashimi set, and takoyaki. The aburi salmon carpaccio was one of my favorite dishes. Each salmon was seared perfectly and had a great balance of sweet, savory, and onions. The deluxe stone meshi with uni was also one of my favorites! The seared salmon mixed with fresh uni and perfectly poached egg with crunchy rice and tobiko hit the spot. Veggie okonomiyaki wasn't smothered in mayo but it was a little dry with limited veggies. The sashimi set came with a bunch of side dishes. The raw octopus had Wasabi flavor in the middle which was okay. The monkfish liver was delicious!!!!! And the eel was cooked to perfection. Sashimi was all very fresh. Chirashi bowl ha
