Creative dishes with well-matched ingredients, definitely deserving of its 1 Michelin star. However, it lacks a WOW factor in general.

This was one of my best experiences in Japan. The food and service was amazing. I came for the lunch with wine pairing. It's a steal for the price! I highly highly recommend it!
