I could only do a brief review because we tried this restaurant awhile ago. However, the impression which still sticks in my mind and my Japanese wife's mind was that it was barely "OK", and it was perhaps a generous verdict for this restaurant. It gives the feeling that it's a "jack-of-all-trades" but master of none - bearing in mind that most Japanese restaurants specialize in a particular style of cuisine. Generalization sits ill with authentic Japanese cuisine. We've ordered the assorted sas

I could only do a brief review because we tried this restaurant awhile ago. However, the impression which still sticks in my mind and my Japanese wife's mind was that it was barely "OK", and it was perhaps a generous verdict for this restaurant. It gives the feeling that it's a "jack-of-all-trades" but master of none - bearing in mind that most Japanese restaurants specialize in a particular style of cuisine. Generalization sits ill with authentic Japanese cuisine.

We've ordered the assorted sashimi set. This was OK - better than some Japanese restaurants but nothing special.

You might see some Japanese customers there but that's really no guarantee of quality as they might come from Tokyo (which is not at all famous for fresh seafood ) or that it might be their first time there too!


The "Goya Champuru" (bitter melon stir fry with sliced pork and Okinawa hard tofu) was not really up to standard when compared with "En" at TST or "Raku En" at CWB. This should be the stock dish in ANY decent Okinawa restaurant. However, the pork was overcooked and the bitter melon was a little bit too bitter (which was not supposed to happen if the Okinawa melon was fresh).


We also ordered a number of cold dishes to accompany our drinks, such as natto, a California roll, cold tuna chunks and natto..etc. Those were fine but once again nothing that left any impression.

Perhaps the crux of the matter was that the ceiling was low and the tables inside the tatami rooms were a bit too close to each other without any partitioning. As a result, it may be very uncomfortable for those who are used to more exclusive atmosphere in other Japanese restaurants.


Service-wise was fine. The waiters and waitresses were pretty polite and efficient (I remember seeing an electronic device used for summoning the staff).

The price was around $350-$400 (including drinks).

Perhaps due to the good location, many people queue for this restaurant. However, I don't think it's really worth the time.
