Really great food here. Waiter was super helpful as there wasn't an English menu. Style is build your own dry curry. Food was exceptional. Service excellent and a quirky, trendy atmosphere very welcoming.

Delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere. The owner was so kind and welcoming. They were open for dinner which was perfect for us after a long day from our tour group. The space was rather large for the restaurant. Easily could accommodate a few of us. It's a build your own curry style (one option was vegetarian) where you just check mark what you want on your curry. Google translate worked great for the menu. Dessert was so delicious and cute! Drinks were great as well. Would definitely come back if we were staying longer! Thank you again for welcoming us. Your kindness and patience with us as we didn't speak fluent Japanese was greatly appreciated!

Delicious food, cozy place, excellent service! I have never tried the dry curry rice before and it was an amazing experience! The restaurant doesn't have menu in English but all the staff and especially the person in charge of our table was so kind and gentle that the language was not a barrier for a great dinner! Thank you!

Rarely give reviews, but this place is simply exceptional. The food and drinks were exquisite yet affordable, decor inspired tranquility and the service was patient and extremely customer centric. Only suggestion I would have for this place would be to have an English menu to ease communication and minimize confusion. Otherwise, 2 thumbs up! :)
