"Incredible vegan selection – they also have a completely separate vegan menu. Ordered starters to share — the vegan bao, and the momos — the bao were delicious enough, but nothing unforgettable if you go for a, go for Momos. Jackfruit Rendang was tasty like banana fritter for dessert! Went with Alli friends who loved it too. Nice atmosphere, will go again."

"This place is amazing!<br/ <br/ For starters great food, but that’s not the most amazing part! They put on a performance and celebrate special occasions! Honestly couldn’t recommend this place more! Every dish comes out on a special dish with fire and coals and other cool surprises!<br/ <br/ 5/5"

"Tried this place today for an anniversary celebration. The seating was spacious and the service through out our lunch was exceptionally good despite the restaurant being quite busy.<br/ Anyway, in the order of the food coming, the salmon nigiri and the chefs choice of sashimi was quite yummy, no complains there. Next came the deep fry soft shell crab and squid. The squid was well fried but I could hardly taste the squid inside the batter. For the crab it was similar, it felt like eating fried batter with very tasteless crab meat as well, definitely not recommending anyone to try.<br/ The grilled eggplant was next and the sauce was very good. However the underside of the eggplant was very burnt and after letting our server know, she insisted that the dish was meant to be like that. I was not impressed.<br/ The 2 mains came next was the grilled charsiu pork and the clams. Both of these was quite nicely made. I prefer the clam the most. There were around 8 meaty clams and the soup base was well flavoured.<br/ Finally we were given an anniversary dessert, this was a nice gesture and was quite happy for this.<br/ <br/ Overall, quite expensive for some ordinary tasting food. Service was quite good though. This place is also quite clean.<br/ <br/ Taste 3.5/5<br/ Service 4.5/5<br/ Ambiance 4/5<br/ Hygiene 4/5<br/ Value 3/5"

"Stopped by for a dinner with a fairly large group. The place was also quite full even though it was a Wednesday night. There happened to be two birthday parties that day and they dim the lights when they bring out the cake/dessert. Even though it was fairly full the service was still quite good. The food was really nice, I went with a beef sukiyaki with a side of katsu. What was interesting was that with the sukiyaki you can order a zousui where they add rice and egg to the left over sukiyaki sauce for a final dish. Really interesting and nice. Good food and nice service so its no surprise that they are busy. If you are really wanting to come here a booking is recommended since they are busy."

"Everything we ordered was delicious! Really good quality of meat and good selection of wine too. If only the portions were a bit bigger. Service is top notch!"
