| - This is a hard place to find, but once inside has beautiful interior decor! It has a nice vibe and good drinks. I would say the dishes were very simple and well thought out, but I would not say that every dish stood out on its own. This place has more appetizers than main course dishes, which aligns more with an izakaya vibe. We tried the octopus, grilled squid, red snapper carpaccio, ramen, tonkatsu curry, and two drinks off the menu. The only dish that I liked was the carpaccio, everything had a home cooked vibe that I would not want to pay ~10$ a dish for. I would only pay 10$ for the squid, because Squid is naturally not cheap. It would be good if they added a bit more "Jazz" to their tako celery by adding more ginger pieces to make it unique. We had taro root icecream which was very good, I was not sure if it was homemade but nonetheless a great flavour. If this place was more central I think it would get more business, but it needs to bring a bit more "A" game to get people to travel west to eat here more than once. On the right track, but unless I hear of some dish upgrades accompanied by rave reviews I will not return.
