One of my favourites. Usually you’ll have a great time here but dishes don’t stay consistent. It’s not a 5 star because the last time I went to the place (Jan 2026), it was absolutely freezing, it was so cold me and my date were shivering and had to wear our big coats. We told the waiter. We looked around and everyone else were also wearing their jackets and so that wasn’t the best experience otherwise a great place for good Japanese food in Leeds.
Was a family meal out and it was a quiet evening weeknight too. Service was good and food came really quick too. We all enjoyed it. Food was fresh as always. Will recommend to others
Ordered sushi rolls from this place. Order was wrong and received something that made me sick. Sushi were all glued together some type of sauce and some type of doritos crumbled on top making a mess. Size of sushi is too big impossible to eat. All rolls were made loosely, falling apart. Tuna did not taste fresh at all and tuna rolls still had water under them, while trying I could feel it being wet. The whole ordered made me sick. Absolutely do not recommend. Such a bad experience. Should have been a treat but end up something worse.
Food was good, but I think I will try different options next time. Prices and presentation are amazing though (£25 for a starter, main, desert and beer!!!) I was seen to straight away and the food came out very quick. Portion sizes were big so good thing I didn't eat owt beforehand ha! All the staff were super friendly, welcoming, professional and just lovely all round. Credit to the restaurant! It's a nice little place, lovely atmosphere and decor, chilled out :)
Came for a quick lunch and we were met with friendly and speedy service. They catered for an allergy and provided very good value for money options.
