Taste: Sushi offerings were varied (so many options!) with a particular freshness, as well as fun presentation. It’s a unique sushi izakaya like I’d never seen before. I enjoyed the various toppings which come with the sushi rolls. While the sushi was all quite good, so wouldn’t order the fries again (they had a Pringle’s taste)
Price: reasonable to even cheap, with some items on the expensive side.
Service: polite and decent; nothing special

Overall: a great place to go with friends and share different types of food in a relaxed, but fun atmosphere. I enjoyed the seats we had on the second floor! Wholly recommend !

Found this quiet local place serving great food and light bits perfect pairing with drinks. Excellent service and very friendly with good English communication. The food is decent and delicious very different style to other drinking places. Would recommend this place though there are many izakaya places in the area.

A bit overpriced with some interesting unusual take on seafood and sushi. The ingredients were fresh and the place itself was located within a compound so there were other places to hop to before or after.

Good food and atmosphere. I don't know why the rating isn't higher.
