They were able to find a space for me at the bar (dining alone while away on business!) and it was fun to watch the exuberant cooks cheering and yelling in Japanese as they whipped up concoctions!
The energy is fun and happy (and LOUD)! You can't be in a bad mood here!
Had the salmon natto - my first experience with natto and while the foaming slimy dish wasn't the prettiest (especially after it's been mixed), I really enjoyed it. Also loved the uni special (SOOOO FRESH!), beef carpaccio, and the fried chicken appetizer. Left stuffed with a giant smile!
Will definitely be back, wish it was in NY!
