    I've been here way too much!! It's a must go if you're visiting from out of town or if you just wanna eat and sing your heart out. Why is it a must?? It's soooo cheap. Last night a few friends and I went to we ordered two nigori sake bottles, three large bottles of Kirin light, and some food and we each split the cost and it was only $20/person!!

    The service is fast, the food is good, and you can drink and sing!!

    My favorites to order:
    1. Yakiniku - grilled sliced tender beef in spicy garlic sauce (order it with one or two sides of rice and share it with everyone)
    2. French fries - they cover it with nori and Parmesan and idk why but it's so goooood
    3. Tekkadon - sliced tuna on top of rice
    4. Gyudon- sliced beef on top of rice
    5. Sunagimo nanban - fried chicken gizzards in sweet and sour sauce
    6. Cheesecake with vanilla ice cream

    Oh, and bottles here are way cheaper than getting bottle service anywhere else!

    There's so many other options I haven't tried yet so you'll know I'll def be backkk!

    -          Service: Average delivery
    -          Environment: N/A
    -          $: Average
    -          Perks: N/A

    More details:

    Ordered from this place twice. Had the miso soup ($2) that was very good and tasty, the Vegetable soup ($2) that was very lean. I particularly love this as in most American restaurant, they add a lot of oil and other sauces in the soups, but this one was really good and lean!
    Edamames ($3) were good too.
    I was not a fan of the Yakitori chicken ($4) on the other hand, I found they fat...
    Will try it again for their sushi/rolls though.

    Overall?

    Average delivery. Open late. Good food. Average portions. Average prices

    I was invited here for a birthday dinner/celebration by one of my good friends. It was a large party and the service was just OK. We had to flag down our waitress to get orders. We ordered the California rolls as an appetizer and they were pretty good. I then ordered the beef ramen and it was also pretty good and I had 2 glasses of the house red wine. They also offer specialty drinks too.

    They are known for their karaoke there and man what a night! My party as well as the others in the restaurant had a ball. Some of it was really hilarious. If the service was better I would have probably given them 1 more star.

    It is dark inside and the bathroom stinks. But we go there sometime with friends bc food was cheap and good there. 3 ppl for $80 is so fulfilling. order some Japanese beer and they have lots of starters.Fried chicken is good as well. But the Udon is kind of tasteless. Try ck wings, fried tofu and some sashimi combo which is tuna and salmon.Those are fresh and good.

    Probably my favorite place to drink for sure! They have cheap drinks and good Japanese dishes! I definitely recommend beef tongue from here because it's absolutely amazing! They also have good steak teriyaki and many other dishes people enjoy dearly. The only thing is there karaoke system is a little outdated so they don't have a lot of songs
