I want to say thank you to master and his wife for the wonderful dishes and vibes. Master took care everyone although I didn’t speak Japanese. My family and I had a wonderful evening there. I liked the かつお so much, it didn’t like any かつお I have tasted. Master chose seasonal and regional seafood and handled them nice. I would definitely recommend my friends to come.

Lucky enough to fill in the last spot of its Omakase dinner on the first day of JP golden week holiday. Top notch quality from the passionate chef. I shall certainly revisit the restaurant when I visit Kanazawa next time.

It was the best dining experience in our recent trip to Japan. Every dish was so delicious and fresh. Owner and wife were very friendly and explain every dish to use even though we have to communicate through google translate. A must try in Kanazawa if you are a sushi fan.
