This restaurant will be compared to Guu Izakaya for it's similar approach to Japanese food. Having been to both Guus many times, I was excited to find an alternative that appeared to be more affordable than Guu - plus the menu seemed really exciting.
We went to this restaurant on a Sunday night and ordered lots of small dishes. Emphasis on word small as they were really tiny. We ended up ordering so many dishes that the bill got as high as when we dine at Guu. Which would be fine if the food was as good as at Guu, but this was not the case. Admittedly, the sashimi that came with the drink combo was one of the best I've ever had. The rest of the dishes ranged from rather good to ok. The baby squid appetizer was truly disgusting and it took many sips of Sapporo to get the taste from my mouth.
Bottom line is, the value for the money is simply not there. Other than the sashimi the food was average and forgettable and I will be saving my Izakaya dining budget for Guu.
