Very nice atmosphere and feel. Trending hip hop music playing. Tables a bit too close together and ours was a very wobbly table. I was super excited at the array of menu items featuring mentaiko, but my main dish still left something to be desired. We ordered:
-corn app
-wasabi octopus
-mentaiko udon
-mashed potato croquette
-original udon
Based on these items alone I wouldn't come back. The corn has a nice texture but was a bit too heavily breaded. The butter-mayo was unique. The wasabi octopus was mild in flavour which was disappointing. The mashed potato was actually really nice - it was soft and smooth inside with a crunchy breaded shell.. with a delightful dipping sauce.. lots of flavour. Probably my fav dish out of everything we ordered. The mentaiko udon was very disappointing for me - the usual saltiness of the mentaiko was drowned out by the sheer amount of cream sauce. All I tasted was buttery cream. It was too too heavy and I could not finish the plate. The original udon was nothing special. They had orange slices in their water pitchers but there was no hint of citrus in our water so I think this is moreso decorative. Their receipts have precalculated tip amounts for 15, 18 and 20%.
