My boyfriend and I were going to a place next door so we decided to give this restaurant a try because I just read an article about it. It's pretty small, but I liked the atmosphere. Whenever I visit a restaurant I always take into consideration if what I'm getting is worth the price. Who wants to pay $50 for food they aren't huge fans of? They recommend the plates to be shared 2-3 per person. We weren't super hungry, but decided to try a couple of the small plates:
Crab mandu: (2/5) I wasn't a huge fan. I kind of wish they just put the cocktail sauce on the side. When it was put on top I couldn't finish more than one. I ended up giving it to my boyfriend because it was overpowering.
udon fries: (3/5) This dish was pretty good because it's different. I really enjoyed the texture of the fried udon. It was a little chewy but had good texture. The one thing I didn't like was that the sauce was just placed in the middle, but since the noodles were long and kind of hard that I couldn't even tell and ate a bunch of noodles without the "dirty sauce." When we got to the end there was way too much sauce because we couldn't mix the entire dish up.
crab croquette: (3/5) Good flavor. You get 4 of them, which I'm not sure is super worth the price.
mushroom takoyaki: (5/5) I love takoyaki. I loved this mushroom one. The flavor was so different than what I'm used to. I would come here just for this.
The service was nice. They were pretty attentive. When we visited they have been open for about 5 days. They let us take the menu home in case we ever want to call in an order.
