The staff is nice and the place can be pleasant when it's not busy, but there are better options in the area. I went there for lunch on a weekday and the place was about 80% full but the kitchen was already unable to cope. It took forever to get our food. It gets fairly noisy when it's busy, which doesn't make the waiting more pleasant. I had the tonkatsu (fried pork cutlet) and was disappointed. It was dry and tasteless like this review. The marinated daikon that came with it was yummy though, but that's about the only thing that I really liked in this dish.
