I have now been to this restaurant twice after seeing fairly positive reviews of this restaurant in openrice.
This is a small family run restaurant that can house about 20 people. It was full around dinner time during the weekday and weekend that i visited.
This restaurant stands out from other restaurants in the N.T. because there are alot of authentic choices in the menu that you would not normally find in a HK-style japanese restaurant where the sushi and sashimi are all usually ready-made out of a box delivered from a Japanese food merchant. For example, you can order 神戶牛肉, grilled puffer fish, real doa ting udon, etc.
The sashimi in this restaurant is very good.The salmon is more fatty and sweeter than normal. I enjoyed it very much.
The noodle and udon is also good. The soup base is not too rich nor too bland. More importantly, the noodle is still bouncy rather than being soft and soggy. The tao ting udon is very smooth and not the usual elastic bands from ready-made packets served by many restaurants.
The sea-salt grilled chicken wings I tried was also very nice with a strong sea-salt taste.
I didnt try much on sushi and handrolls, so I cant comment on this area.
Overall, the price is this restaurant is probably 50%-100% higher than other Japanese choices in the area. The cost goes into the quality of the ingredients. This is a good place for sashumi with its own sashumi bar and noodles / udon.
