Had the crispy beef and trio of prawn starters. Had tastier king prawns but the crispy beef is something special! Rib eye steak and short beef rib for mains. Steak was perfect but the short beef rib…oh my days! Soooo good! The gravy/sauce that it comes with was amazing and the beef just fell apart and there was plenty of it! Wild mushrooms as a side were excellent! Quiet evening as we went early! Never had a bad dining experience here. 🧡

Amazing Omakase experience. The menu was so fresh and our chef had lots of knowledge which he shared with us. The Sake pairing was amazing. All the staff were attentive. Highly recommend

Great experience, food and setting good. Make an amazing effort with my wife’s birthday and provided a free round of drinks as a ‘birthday gift’. That’s what makes customers return!

    The Food here is generally Thai based. We were a party of four and ordered 7 Tapas dishes and a chicken Pad Thai from the main. We found that we spot on with our ordering. The food was very tasty and service excellent. Would highly recommend.
