Great place, the food was excellent and the staff very friendly and knowledgeable. We loved the Japanese pancake and the cocktails were divine! Good value for money too, and a great night out.

We had a great experience at this authentic Japanese izakaya. The restaurant was cozy, traditional and made us feel like we were in Japan. For starters, we had gyoza and karaage, both delicious and flavorful. For the main course, we had tonkatsu (crispy on the outside and tender in the inside), japanese rice and yakisoba (super tasty). For desserts we had mochi filled with chocolate and with matcha. The staff were friendly and welcoming, making the overall experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for real Japanese food, which is not only sushi :D

Sometimes it just goes wrong and then it’s all about how the experience is recovered. And very occasionally that goes wrong too. Won’t return. Uncooked chicken served after being partially eaten and sent back, staff seemed pretty disinterested. They changed the main which arrived after everyone else had finished and took 20% of that dish only as compensation. To give that context that €3 on a meal of €128. Waiter said he wasn’t empowered to do anything else. Luckily I’m empowered not to return. Too much choice in Lisbon to eat at places that don’t care.

The only GENUINE Japanese Izakaya in Lisbon! Simple and tasty izakaya food, excellent execution of the chef, real high balls and Asahi draft beer, good music, very friendly and professional service and attention. Prices are surprisingly correct, compared to many other fashionable “cool spots”, on this Lisbon-Absurdity era. If you are looking for instagram moments or fancy colorful dishes with hot young and clueless staff, you have many other better options… Lisbon was missing a serious Izakaya like Koji.

The team here is excellent. Vivian gave us some great recommendations for sake, and the food was pretty good. The Negui-Ma yakatori, Ajitama and okinomiyaki were all excellent. A few other dishes could use some more love. The takoyaki for example were a bit too mushy and dense. Overall, I thought the food was above average and we will be back. Value was quite good for the price, and the vibe inside is great.
