Relaxed Japanese standby with sashimi. Longtime Japanese spot with a serene vibe offering a Kyoto-style menu of hot dishes, plus sashimi.
Very relaxed meal, intense and distinct flavors, in a relatively vibrant Japanese restaurant. The staff was very friendly and seemed to really respect the food. They made me feel very welcome. My favorite dishes in the tasting menu were the beef soup and noodles, as well as the misa soup in the appetizer. They were however rather salty and I woke up thirsty. I would love to be back.
Unwelcoming atmosphere but attentive service. Expected it to be run down after not coming back for a few decades but it was well maintained and clean. Cocktails are a hit or miss. Tuna tartare was of quality but bland. Nice agedashi. Miso udon was nice. Futomaki was surprising small for the price and just ok.
A very authentic and sophisticated Japanese restaurant. The price is a little high, but the food, workers, decor, atmosphere and plates+ utensils are all just very beautiful. They take only cash or American Express credit card.
We took our daughter and a couple of her friends here during a recent visit to NY, and we all enjoyed a wonderful evening! The service was top-notch ~ our glasses were never empty, and our plates were brought and cleared promptly without us feeling rushed. To begin, we ordered the assorted seasonal appetizer which had something for everyone, even the vegans among us - very tasty! Our entrees included the black codfish, the skirt steak (both cooked and seasoned perfectly), the omen noodles (vegan) and the Kobe beef Shabu-Shabu hot pot, which was an experience in itself! Exceptional customer service and exquisite Japanese cuisine. A great dining experience!
Service is very slow. Food is great tho. Make sure to bring cash!!! It’s cash only or American Express.
Cozy spot with really warm service. The agedashi tofu is superb — the best I’ve ever had. So I’ll definitely be returning for that and to try other dishes!
Had the handmade udon signature dish. Very nice texture from the noodles & the dashi was concentrated but not over seasoned. Also they make the nukazuke pickles which were nice and crunchy.
Very romantic and low key place. The food is excellent. Feel very authentic.
