Amazing authentic Japanese restaurant. Fish was fresh!! Fried dishes light and delicate. Extensive menu will be appreciated by connoisseurs of Japanese cuisine. Service can’t be faulted. Will be back!!

Went here after my friend suggested it and was not disappointed!!! The interior was amazing, and the food was great, we made a reservation and got a private room where we had to take our shoes off! Friendly service and great food ! Fully recommend!

Really enjoyed the agedashi tofu. Gyoza and yakitori were okay. The buttered scallops were ok. It cost slightly more than the pork dish. Was expecting it to be better..maybe bigger and with a more grilled flavor. Overall tastes for all dishes were good. Major downfall is price. A bit too expensive. We each had one drink. We had a highball and Kirin beer.

Our 4th visit to Asakusa and just as good as every prior visit. The chef is nothing short of a magician as the menu is huge but everything is delivered with consummate skill every time we eat here. Presentation and flavour are fantastic and the quirky atmosphere only adds to the experience. A hidden gem....

Chicken nanban might be my favourite Japanese dish so when I saw it in asakusa menu, I realised I need to visit. Booked with no issues and got a seat on the sushi counter. Ordered a pretty wide sample of the menu and I would recommend some rather than other bits. The menu is huge so take care on what you order.

Would not recommend: yakitori, came out quite dry. Mind me that I didn't love it even in Japan but I thought it was weak, also the simmered tuna in soy sauce was tiny and not that great.

Recommend: chicken nanban, quite unknown Japanese dish but it is really something. On the other hand the best thing I had there was sushi. It came just like I remembered it from Japan, huge fish and not much rice. It was also quite affordable I thought.

I would need to mention though that they seem to have confused when to bring rice as they didn't have it ready for chicken nanban. So in the end I ate everything without rice. So perhaps it is worth specifying while ordering. Despite it all I will visit again.
