"Great little place with vegetarian/vegan options. We ordered the katsudon and ramen. Free of charge we also got to start with some macha tea. Very pleased with our experience here. Highly recommended!"

"Good Japanese restaurant. The decor is sort of boxy, the 1 Japanese song was on a continuous loop. The ramen was tasty, shrimps free, the vegetarian ramon same good flavour but no extra veggies. The sushi roll was good we had to ask for ginger and wasabi."

"As an Asian person this cannot be classified as food let alone Asian food! Clearly they’ve never had good ramen before! Broth was tasteless noodles were wrong, toppings were wrong. The sushi rice was wrong and it was just inedible. Just absolute garbage! My advice, stick to Chilean food, don’t attempt to cook food u don’t know in a restaurant for the public. The “good” reviews here are from other white people who clearly also have never have good Asian food! You can see Asian people leaving accurate reviews of how terrible the food was (if you can even call it that)"
