Excellent service and zero waiting time. I loved that the dishes didn’t arrive all at once, it makes it so much easier to enjoy everything fresh. The price-to-quality ratio is great, and the sashimi portions (read: fish, salmon, tuna) were generous! Overall a fantastic experience. 10/10, would definitely come again!

Delicious and affordable Japanese food. I love their sashimi and maki offerings. We also had a generous serving of their mixed tempura. Wonderful ambience and very cool air-conditioning. We absolutely loved their Uni sashimi.
Please be aware that serving time is where they’re a little weak on. On average it takes 30-40 minutes for your order to arrive and don’t expect it all to be served in one go. Overall, a great Japanese restaurant and would recommend.

Best and authentic japanese dishes in Dagupan specially the sushi/sashimi platter. Served with hot oolong tea. Try their teppanyaki too if you want to be entertained while dining.

Place and food is great. Perfect for Japanese food lovers. And for first timers who want to try and explore other foods this is a must try! They also have japanese liquor/beer. Service/staff are also nice and approachable, when you need something or you ask about aby menu item just call for their waiter/waitress. Parking is a bit difficult because its always full, so be early if you can.

It’s okay-ish and perhaps the best japanese restaurant in dagupan.
Pros:
-Affordable Prices
-Good ambiance
-Cozy place
-They hire PWDs
-Reasonable taste
Cons:
-LONG Waiting time
-If you’ve been to different ramen places you’ll probably find their ramen kind of lackluster
-Service charge for a very slow service.
I ordered Salmon Maki, Tonkotsu Ramen, and Pork and Shrimp Gyoza as shown in the photos below.
The Salmon Maki is passable as it tastes good but you can tell that the salmon used isn’t very fresh.
The ramen’s broth is kind of bland but I’d give it a passing scors.Unfortunately, they dont have many condiments you can use to tweak the flavor.
The gyoza is alright at its best as it didn’t really have the umami and creamy taste you’d typically taste from a gyoza. (Highly suggest mendokoro’s gyoza as it sets the bar)
Overall, the place is a good place to go if you’re craving japanese food. However, one must not set high expectations for the taste of their food.

first of all, the place is beautiful, the place is cozy. As soon as you go to the entrance, someone will attend to you, then, upon entering, the employees will greet you in Japanese. that’s what I liked. When it comes to serving the food, it takes a long time, maybe it’s because we went late that’s why it took a long time to serve the food. We waited maybe more than 30 minutes for our food order. Then, I was waiting for the robot crew to come and serve our food, but, I was sad because the crew themselves delivered our food. The Place, it’s beautiful and the ambiance is solid. It’s for family and friends. When it comes to the Food we ordered, the RAMEN TONKUTSO, it’s okay for its PRICE, you’ll be SO full and the RAMEN I ordered had a lot of INGREDIENTS and MEAT. As for the chicken torikatsu, the chicken taste is just right, the flesh is not tough.

Food was advertised inaccurately. Expectations weren’t met, especially for the price. We ordered California Maki, it didnt even have mango, and had to send it back. The oyakudon was dry and I even had to ask for sauce. The tempura we ordered didnt even arrive and had to cancel cause it took too long.

Delicious and tender salmon sashimi, special wasabi, and Miso soup. Kirin beer in a bottle was also available. Perfect!
Their customer service is excellent! They went out of their way to ensure I got what I ordered even if what I ordered was seemingly out of stock. They made me feel even more valued by giving me a complementary Salmon Aburi. Amazing and awesome!
Will keep coming back! You should too.

I have to say that I am glad there is a local japanese resto in dagupan. Tamago was very tasty. Ordered the sweet dragon, mind it was past 8pm and the shrimp was still fresh. Tonkotsu Ramen was suprisingly good .. reminds me of ramen from Yamazaki (Makati). Karaage portions are easily more than 35g of protein .. not net weight .. yes very tasty ☀️☀️☀️☀️
