Good food and hospitality
Very authentic Japanese place located in the hustle and bustle of the Double road in shantinagar! It has a contemporary japanese seating arrangements. The sushi and sashimi is really good, but what's even better is the price tag. 8pcs Uramaki just for ₹450/- !!
Such Authentic and fine dining food with such an affordable price tag is a bliss. Not to forget the quality of sushi. However the service was a little slow but good food takes time to be prepared 😁

Delicious authentic Japanese food and a very serene ambience. Tried their free wheat tea and it is a perfect hot beverage to go with their dishes. Good service. Must try for someone who likes or wants to try Japanese food.

One of the best sushi bistro in Bangalore with authentic taste. It is easy to find and the interior of the bistro takes you to Japan literally.
Parking would be a concern during peak times but the location is quite good at the heart of Bangalore.
To start with we ordered a bao basket and Sushi:
Chicken Xiao Long bao - Good (4/5) - The taste was good but the soup was literally missing from the bun filling. As this is supposed to be soup dumpling hence we had expected some soup to ooze out when we have the dumpling. But as the skin was very thin and had broken .. all the soup had dripped out into the basket instead. So essentially we had dumplings instead of xiao long bao :) but then it melts in your mouth so I am not complaining
Ebi Fry Maki Sushi - Excellent (5/5) - The best dish of the day. The wasabi and gari which accompanied with the sushi was nice. Gari or picked ginger (galangal mostly) is used to cleanse the palate between eating different pieces of sushi. It may however be consumed before or after the meal. The wasabi was not that strong and was bit diluted and smooth more to in tune with my taste. But then real wasabi is hard to get and expensive!
For the main course we wanted to give donburi and ramen dishes a try
Chicken Misokatsu Don- Very Good (4.5/5) - Originally Misokatsu is generally juicy breaded deep fried pork cutlet however in our case its chicken served with don(sticky rice) and miso paste (Miso is a traditional Japanese seasoning produced by fermenting soybeans with salt and koji and sometimes rice, barley, seaweed - ref: Wiki)
Chicken Ramen - Decent (3.5/5) - Probably the weakest of the dishes I tried today and the chicken portion was small compared to the portion of the dish.
If you love Sushi and Onigiri then I will definitely recommend to give this place a visit at least once.
Ambience - 4.0/5
Quality - 4.5/5
Taste - 4.5/5
Value for Money - 4.5/5
Overall -4.5/5
Hygiene - Good
Service - Decent
P.S: Do not keep expectations of a 5 star restaurant from this moderately priced bistro
Tidbits: Don't miss the complimentary Mugicha (Wheat Tea) - you might find it invigorating - it is made by roasting barley/wheat seeds, which gives it a mild and refreshing flavor.
A Japanese Stunner...!!!
This one's real Japanese style restaurant. The seatings are just perfect like how Japanese usually eat in their homes.
And the dishes are just delectable with no words to describe.
This place sits just few mts away from Lalbagh garden and is a perfect hideout.
Ngiri Sushis, Cold Soba Noodles, Maki Rolls are just perfect to make up your mood.
Highly recommended...!!!
Best place to have authentic Japanese food. Ambience as well is authentic. Best sushi in town. Menu is exactly as you would find in restaurants across Japan.
Japanese to the core. Great ambiance, food quality top notch. 💯 authentic japanese food. Mastery on handling the chopsticks required to enter the place. Really loved the food (Arigato. Mata atode.)
Blissful Japanese cuisine, ambience captured perfectly, every element fits one another very well giving a elegant look and even the Staff is amazing.

Pretty great sushi, compliments to the chef. Chashu bao was melting in your mouth, it was so great. Their oyakodon was a culinary experience altogether. Their accompanient tea was pretty great.
Didn't like the yakisoba though, sadly they didn't have ramen available when I went there, which was a bit of a damper.
Simple and No nonsense Japanese food. It's more like a Japanese Dhaba. Loved it every time I go there. Cleanliness could be improved a bit.. please work in the upkeep
Amazing food! I had udon with tempura prawns. It's exactly like you would get in the streets of Japan. A must try if you want to have authentic Japanese food. Worth spending money here!
Very authentic Japanese cuisine that tastes lovely. The Sushi was a simply and delicious, while the Ramen broth was some the most heartwarming broths I have had in the city.
This place is a must if you love Japanese food, and it's the added vibes such as the Japanese music and books that make the place all the more of an experience.
Tables are a bit limited, so better have a reservation. Most tables are of a traditional low form factor, so might be a bit harder for elderly or physically challenged people. They do have two normal tables otherwise.

One of the best places to try out authentic Japanese cuisine. Absolutely loved them all. Prawn tempura and teriyaki chicken were the best. Also the chicken ramen was one of it's kind and very unique. They serve a welcome drink, known as "Mugicha" which was very refreshing. They also have a karaoke corner with every possible kind of songs. Enjoyed a lot. Good place for a group hangout. Highly recommended. ❤️👍
Very good ambience, there is floor seating and japanese music in the background. We can get mugicha (wheat tea) here. The vegetarian options are limited, but enough for a meal. The food is very good, although a little on the expensive side. The staff is very polite.
Food was delicious, staff was responsive, cool and clean room, but i can still see flies, that felt un-hygienic. A great Restraunt representing Japanese style food. I liked Salmon Sashimi, please do try that, when you visit.See the pics for the Yummy Treat!
Good authentic japanese restaurant. Food is good. You can have authentic japanese food. Place is good for non vegetarian. Sushi and corquette was great. But Ramen was not that great. That might because I had veg ramen. Lot of different japanese dishes is available there. But they have limited number of tables, so it's better to book table before going there.
This has to be one of the most underrated Japanese restaurant in town.
Very old school decor gives old Bangalore vibes.
The meat based food are top notch, even better then the well known Japanese restaurants in town. Please try their Ramen bowls as they are delicious.
But they have stopped service Sake and other alcoholic beverages for quite sometime. So please be mindful of that.
Liked my first visit here. Nice set meals. Decent collection of Japanese manga.
Update: I've been there a few times since then. While the service is a bit slow, the food is always rather good. The maguro and Hirame are not always available however, whatever is available, is usually good.
Food is decent, but was expecting better.
Staff is very sweet and tends to all your needs.
It's a cosy little diner best suited for private lunch or dinner with it's quite and peaceful ambience.
They even have Japanese magazines, so if you are a Japanese language enthusiast, you can spend your time reading them while your food is being prepared. (It takes some time)
They have a pretty good range of liquor too, from hard drinks to soft drinks.
Loved the food here. The food was fresh and yummy. The Wheat tea is a must have . Place is simple and nice. Price is a bit on the higher side . So you gotta plan before going to the restaurant.
