Wonderfully cozy and intimate atmosphere. Perfect for enjoying classic rock and jazz with friends. The owner is personally present and engaging, though there's room for the bar staff to be a bit more interactive. The food quality is good and solid, making this a great spot for a relaxed night out with long-time companions. Warmly recommended

Amazing omakase experience for a special occasion! We booked the take course, and every bite of seafood was super fresh. There were some unique seasonings and flavor combinations that definitely surprised us. Chef also took particular care of our specific fruit allergies. You can taste the thought and love the chef put into the menu, and the team was incredibly warm! Super chill environment, great music but still soft enough to be able to chat with your friends. Absolutely recommend the omakase if you’re treating someone to a special meal. We are definitely coming back for happy hour!

The omakase experience was simple, short, direct and just enough food for the night. Not too heavy, not a lot of heavy flavours. Particularly the rice, well made, tasted great, slightly sweet, not dry at all. Had interesting dishes I have never had before and they were good for the price point. The drinks were also deliciously made. Had a nice conversation with the owner and he is a chill gentleman with great taste in music. Definitely recommends this spot for a nice and relaxing evening. A good way to calm down your day after a busy day in Saigon.

Small and definitely very cosy Japanese Kanpai restaurant and bar in Thao Dien. Not too crowded and definitely a place for good friends and couple to hang out. The food is fresh and if you do not know what to order, you can ask the owner for recommendations. My kind of music as well with oldies played from the turntable. Something you hardly see these days. Truly enjoyed the place - good food, nice music and great company.

🍣 Food: Fresh sashimi and tasty rolls. 🍹 Drinks: Good 🪑 Space: It was quite condensed for the open area, exposure to outside airs through windows. The restaurant was neatly designed. 😎 Vibe: Overall vibe was pretty good. Music played nicely in the background. A good place to spend a good time
