Food was tasty, but prawns were overdone. Price was high for what I got. Teriyaki was light on sauce, feels like they went for a healthier style than most I’ve seen. Edamame was good, salad was pleasant. Overall an okay choice for lunch.

One of my favorite lunch time spots in downtown because the food is good, the service is quick and the place is always very clean. They have a cold deli with a selection of bottled drinks and small cold dishes to go. The menu is small but this allows them to make high quality meals quickly. The large windows make for a nice ambient lit room to have lunch in.

Think of the part last time you ate teriyaki…dried chicken with a bunch of gross sauce. This place perplexed me… the chicken and shrimp are perfectly cooked, with just enough sauce. The care in the prep is beyond anything you’d expect for what you’d think is a simple dish. I honestly can’t think of another place that makes food this juicy, and with care. It’s been on my weekly lunch rotation for a reason. Shame it’s in a dead city bc you can tell they care when restaurants around them only care to make a buck.

Food tastes great, but if you have a big appetite you’ll want to grab more than just the normal combo.

Clean, fresh, simple Japanese meals. They cook everything to order and don’t over-sauce their food like a lot of Americanized Japanese restaurants. Great mom-and-pop place run by a hardworking family.

The menu is limited but the quality is always high! The chicken is fresh from the grill, not sitting under a heat lamp. The slaw and edamame are perfect accompaniments.

I saw the great review about the teriyaki chicken from previous review (didn’t look at the year..oops) and decided to try a combo of beef and chicken teriyaki. All I can say is it wasn’t seasoned well. The meat should taste good by itself and it wasn’t. The slaw/salad wasn’t seasoned well either.

My favorite lunch spot. Very healthy, fresh food. Portions are perfect for me as it never makes me feel bloated. Delicious shrimp teriyaki and their miso soup is amazing. This is not a sushi restaurant – I’ve seen some people mistake it for one. They serve teriyaki bento plates with rice, protein, small cucumber vinegar salad and edamame. It fills me up for the day. Owned by the very sweet and nice husband and wife (chef and cashier). The line cooks are also super nice guys. Love this place very much!

I came here about 2 weeks ago for lunch and man was it delicious! I ordered a to go plate with Teriyaki chicken, Teriyaki shrimp, and brown rice but it also came with edamame and this tangy lime cucumber salad. I highly recommend this restaurant! My new favorite spot I can’t wait to take my family here
