Before you even step in to this place, you'll probably need to take a double take before finding it, as there's no signs and almost hidden on Lakeview. Once inside, you're greeted with a small, grungy space, almost like you're in someone's garage, but in the best way possible. The decor is charming with vintage signs and accents here and there and neon signs to contrast.
We had the Uni-Bomb, Dino Wings, Salmon Aburi, Roasted Eggplant with Fried Beet, Katsu Bun and to end off, the Miso Ice Cream. Highlights were the Salmon Aburi and Uni-Bomb as the flavours together worked really well although I felt the salmon supposedly being raw was a bit overcooked. The Dino Wings, their most popular dish, was alright. The batter wasn't great, felt a bit too fried and the stuffing just felt like eating a dumpling. Not sure why people rave about this? Also, skip the Katsu Bun, it's not worth the money at all. The roasted eggplant with fried beet was excellent, definitely recommend. Miso Ice Cream, was a bit strange.. Felt too salty and had no balance.
Overall, great vibes, service was average and food was also only okay. Did not try any of their drinks this time, but I can see this as a good place for a snack and/or drinks after dinner.
