What our guests are saying

Took me back to Japan. I went before the crowd and enjoyed a delicious meal. Excellent for solo dining. Plan for street parking and make a reservation or be okay with possibly having a wait.

I took my parents here, and we all loved it. I ordered many different plates, and each was great; the grilled kabocha and garlic chicken really stood out! The staff was very friendly and the whole experience was very reminiscent to those I’ve had in Japan

One of my favourite places in Ventura County hands down! The staff are amazing and the food is to die for! I suggest it to everyone. Truly one of the best restaurants in Ventura, bar none.
