Dined here on their grand opening night. The decor is dark and authentic to what I think a Japanese tapas bar would be. Fully stocked bar with lots of sake, cocktails and beer--plus a couple of wine choices.Bartenders were attentive and asked for our feedback on the cocktails. We sampled a couple of the pass-around food as well as ordered from the menu. Everything we had was tasty--edamame, yellowtail with jalapeños, bacon wrapped asparagus, mushrooms, grilled steak and the dumplings. I also ventured out and tried the monkfish liver and pickled octopus-- interestingly tasty . This is a great addition to the Plaza Midwood area. Stop in and enjoy the authenticity that the owner and his wife have brought to Charlotte. I look forward to coming back and trying the ramen and other tapas dishes.
