Description

Behind the menu's staples are daily-prepared options like eggplant, agedashi tofu, and tender, non-greasy eel cooked over Japanese grills. The seating follows a long, shotgun-style layout that gets loud quickly, meaning it is not suited for intimate, low-key dinners. Instead, the draw is a fast-paced meal with prompt service, capped off with desserts like matcha affogato or a light banana ice.
