The sashimi is thick and fresh. All the dishes are delicious. It’s too popular that we wait least 40mins during dinner time. The employees are polite and offering good service.
People queuing to get table is good reference for sushi restaurant. We were waiting for half an hour for a table for four people. Restaurant offers different type of sushi variants, beer and other specialties. Ordered sushi with tuna, salmon, eel or cucumbers. Good choice for our family dinner
We went there on a Tuesday morning, we arrived around 10:30am, we were lucky to be the first in line. We ordered the popular tuna dish, and the rice with egg yolk and prawn (please check the photos for reference). Those two are my favorites, I am always a salmon lover so you should order for yourself! Would definitely re-visit the place again!
We chanced upon this sushi restaurant one evening while shopping and boy were we glad we did. The first thing that caught our eye was the long line that formed outside the restaurant and you know what they say about long lines. We decided to return the next evening, got in after a half hour wait and frantically ordered almost half the menu. The sushi was simply divine. Soft, juicy, tender with nary a hint of fishiness that typically accompany lesser sushi. We smiled uncontrollably as we devoured sushi after sushi. The best sushi we've ever had in Osaka, hands down. This is one restaurant that we'll definitely remember and will return to.
It's not all great but definitely good and affordable. There will be a queue but it moves pretty quickly. The good is delicious, tuna and crab are very recommended. I was disappointed about the wagyu.
It’s located in an underground shopping area beneath the main road, and there was quite a long waiting line. We were able to enter after waiting for about an hour, and the draft beer was incredibly good. The tuna belly seaweed rolls and shrimp yukhoe were absolutely delicious. I think I’ll definitely visit again next time.
Be prepared for wait about 30 to 40 minites for your turn, but the wait will be worth your while! Excellent sashimi and sushi dishes that are prepared fresh upon ordering. This is my best sushi meal yet! Prices are reasonable, considering the freshness and quality. They have both table and counter seating. Highly recommended! Thumbs up! Make the trip here, you won’t regret it!
Amazing food. Will go any time again. But the queue is very long and the queue was starting about an hour before the restaurant even opened. I recommend you to go as early as possible, if not, be aware of long queue. Food is exceptionally good no matter what you order.
