If you haven't seen videos from food bloggers regarding this place, then you're surely missing out. Upon entering, you are greeted with a warm, ambient, classical Japanese restaurant. The walls and decor are calming and serene. The menu offers a vast array of food to choose from. Some are classic Japanese dishes you'll see in other restaurants, but you'll also find restaurant specialties. To my surprise, the sushi was perfectly balanced, probably due to our little Buddhist monk and his dry ice! The sashimi were soft, and the flavor were neither too fishy nor too weak. My friend and I were disappointed that we could not try the sake ice cream, but all the food were delicious nonetheless. Of course, the service here was impeccable as well.

Everything I ordered was delicious down to the single skirt stake skewer and the ramen I got. The fruit Nana lemonade was also perfectly balanced. The atmosphere here was super cool and enough privacy to spill some drama. I definitely recommend coming here.

Great atmosphere - you almost feel like you got transported to Japan. They have small coves for smaller groups, a nice bar area, and little private rooms for larger groups.

Food was delicious- Definitely recommend ordering the sampler platter. Our favorite was the octopus and the tofu with yuzu. Drinks were strong and the matcha crepe was amazing.

Service was exceptional and food came really fast.

The food was absolutely delicious. The staff were excellent. The decor makes you feel like you are no longer in Queens.

We started with the Karaage Chicken and Yakitori Platter. This was a great choice to share in my small group. The beef short was my favorite part of the Yakitori.

I also got Katsu Curry which I thoroughly enjoyed. My friend got Sashimi Sampler and Hako Sushi which he enjoyed as well.

Always excited to try something new and see what the buzz is all about 😋 Very creative food and drink menu with a diverse range of offerings. Overall we enjoyed the sushi dishes over the yakitori. The crab dish had a bit too much mayo for our liking and I wish they clarified that the truffle supplement was for oil and not the freshly shaved kind. It’s a fun place to go with a group to try a wider variety of items, but it does get pricey.

Prompt and courteous service (dig the call button feature at the table). Shout out to Angela and Stephen for their attention to us.

Went here after seeing it posted all over TikTok. The atmosphere is amazing and definitely has a wow effect. A great spot to go to for an event or visitors. The food is alright but also very pricey for Flushing. It's apparent you are paying for the decor and story. We got a platter of skewers and the sushi ball tray. The sushi balls were adorable and had a dry ice flourish which was great to see. Again, great for a special event...don't see myself coming for a solo meal or casual hangout. If you have a good $50-$70 to spend for 2, then definitely go try it out. If you are on a budget, there's tons available in Flushing that is less than $10 a person.

Paying for the experience, ambiance and presentation. The food was beautifully arranged and presented but a-lot of dishes lacked flavor. The dragon sushi balls were hit and miss freshness wise. Everything else was good but not at the level you would expect for the price. The service was great but im not sure if the buttons in the rooms to call a waiter actually work.
