I've tried tonight for the first time this new place and I definitely found my new spot for dinner with friends on a Tuesday evening.
When you come in everybody greats you in choir with a welcome in Japanese (I suppose, hopefully they don't say something bad you can't understand LOL), the sitting is really fun so basically you get to sit with a bunch of people you never met before and hearing all their conversation and actually make new friends. Coming in with a date not to worry they have couples sitting too.
The menu is very different from every other Japanese places I've been before and they actually don't carry sushi -unless for a specific night or change of the menu or special- but they have really typical delicious Japanese dishes.
The servers are really helpful also in giving you advices of what to choose also for a specific mood you are in that night.
My friends came here many times and never been disappointed. And I can say the same. It is really a cool place.
