"Such a lovely place, warm, cozy, and softly lit, with music that instantly puts you in a good mood. The atmosphere feels intimate, like a little hidden corner made for relaxing after a long day. The staff couldn’t be sweeter. They’re so attentive and genuinely kind that you feel welcomed the moment you walk in. And the food… honestly, the best sushi I’ve had so far. Fresh, delicate, perfectly balanced, every bite felt special. I’ll come back without a second thought on our next trip to Bangkok. It has officially become one of my favorite addresses. Thank you so much"

"Parking is right at the restaurant's entrance (behind the big construction door - yes very hidden but spacious. Just drive to the shop entrance and the guard will open the door for you). The place is very well decorated with Japanese streetfood theme. Ideal place for friends, and families (drinking also nice). Food quality can be better for the value. They have all kind of sake, highballs. Service is fast and friendly. Milk Ice cream is very good!"
