There's a gloriously thrown together feel to the boxy interior of this reliable Soho stalwart, its smattering of wooden tables topped with mismatched tea cups and faded plastic soy saucers. The cafeteria vibe was bolstered on our last visit by an unfortunate line in radio-friendly R&B seeping from the stereo. Set lunches offer everything from tempura to teriyaki beef or chicken, all served with vegetables, rice and miso soup, while a kaleidoscopic array of hand-rolled sushi is available alongside a comprehensive list of à la carte options. We plumped for chirashi, a generously heaped bowl of steamed rice topped with a colourful assortment of raw fish - tuna, eel, shrimp and salmon roe - that was disarmingly fresh and delicious.

Authentic Japanese cuisine, a eating place with a humble entrance, honest and modest. Fair and reasonable priced items, good for a quick lunch and dinner. Ingredients are fresh, nicely prepared and services are well commented. Highly recommended for a visit to enjoy Japanese cuisine without the worry of high price

Did not think that this Japanese restaurant lived up to the reviews I had read. The food was expensive and very average - the sushi rolls arrived oozing with mayonnaise which was a bit odd and unexpected. As my friend is allergic to eggs, I asked them to remake the roll, as mayonnaise was not one of the ingredients mentioned on the menu - not a huge request. The waitress was very unfriendly and acted like I had asked her to do something completely extraordinary, and then proceeded to charge me extra for the remade sushi roll. In the end, the food was good, but much to expensive for what it is...maybe lunch deal is more worth it?

A cosy Japanese restaurant on Brewert St down the road from uber trendy Soho. This restaurant is tiny -- seated downstairs, we ordered some sushis to sample. The sushi is not the best in town, however it's value for money.
