AI Summary

Bentleigh's new Japanese favourite for fresh sushi and gyoza, despite notoriously slow service.

Cosy, warmly decorated dining room with a genuine Japanese ambience. popular for date nights and birthdays despite being a newer, sometimes under-staffed venue.

Good range of sake; lunch set menus; mocktail options; helmed by a chef with 20 years of Japanese cooking experience.

Reviewers repeatedly praise it as 'genuine' and 'authentic' Japanese food and vibe, run by an experienced Japanese chef.

Generally reasonably priced for lunch sets and good value, though several reviewers found à la carte and dinner pricing steeper than expected.
