Terrible service and wildly overpriced food. I ordered two chicken katsu curries and one vegetable curry and couldn’t believe what I receivedβ€”tiny portions, lukewarm food, and katsu that looked like frozen nuggets. The β€œsalad” was maybe 4 or 5 wet pieces of lettuce. When I went in to explain the issue, the owner denied everything and took zero responsibility. No apology, no solution. For nearly $100, this felt like a complete ripoff. One of the worst dining experiences I’ve had in town.

Loved the place. Amazing food and ambiance of a proper Japanese restaurant, Totally worth the price of admission. Sushi was fresh and the Ramen broth was mouth watering. Definitely going back multiple times to try their whole menu:)

Authentic Japanese sushi and comfort food. All of their fish is fresh, their sushi rice is perfect, and their miso soup is authentic miso. We stopped by for lunch and were blown away. Great, welcoming service. The interior is cozy. They serve fresh green tea, which is always a plus! This is the best quality sushi and Japanese cuisine you’ll find in all of Princeton.
