Absolutely amazing experience!! We didn’t have a reservation prior, we walked in and got very lucky that we only had to wait 10 minutes to be seated. They seated us in a private room which we loved! If you want to enjoy your meal on a tatami mat, I would recommend booking a reservation. We ordered the wagyu sukiyaki and it was delicious! The waiter will show you two ways on how to properly cook the dish. After we finished, they gave us a free cup of matcha to cleanse the pallet as well as an origami crane for good luck! Our waiter and the rest of the staff are so nice and attentive. Great service overall! 10/10 would recommend if you’re looking for a cool dining experience! Everything about this place is perfect. The service, the food and the place, all nice. Annabelle was our staff for the night. Great explanation, fun and nice person. Thank you for your superb service. Plus plus point for the cute origami. Highly recommended. It's easy to make reservation online. Please try this place. Absolutely brilliant experience and exceptionally tasty food! The restaurant is in the basement floor and there is an elevator to get there if you want to avoid stairs. The restaurant has a nice vibe and you feel like you are in an intimate setting and you are taken care of by staff like VIP no matter how busy it gets. Our server, Annabelle was absolutely lovely and made this experience so much fun and interactive. Offered to take our pictures, showed us how to make and enjoy our Sukiyaki and even gave us the cutest little origami and matcha tea to end the night! The meat and accompanying vegetables were all of great quality too so overall we genuinely loved coming here! +++ they reassured us everything here was 100% halal!

this place is amazing! annabelle was an amazing host - she explained the menu well and took pictures of our group and gave us very cute souvenirs at the end of the meal. the food was amazing and the portion size was incredible for the price. we sat in a tatami room which gave us extra privacy. i would 100% recommend this place for a slightly pricier but well priced meal
