Great service, cozy ambiance, wonderful music which makes you travel along with the food. Truly like being in Japan, while living in Lisbon. I was lucky to be in Japan traveling already, and this place is quite loyal to the experience you’d get locally. My second time here, and it certainly won’t be my last one :) congrats to all the team for this marvelous place!

Such a lovely place for authentic Japanese food! It's Japanese-owned and the ingredients and menu feel straight out of a Tokyo izakaya. The service is kind and sweet, which is rare for Lisbon. Would definitely recommend!

The food was outstanding! We sat at the bar and we were able to sit near the chef’s station. He was chatty and gave us recommendations. This added to the experience and made it feel more involved and intimate.

The vibe is very nice and they have a good menu to choose from. Service is friendly and attentive. Portions are not for the big eaters. We had a discount code. We personally didn’t like the one time use wooden chop sticks. They sort of ruined the more upscale feel of the food and for the price one can expect better.

Friendly staff, and tasty food, albeit a bit too expensive for what you get. Coupling a visit with a the fork deal? Perfect combo

Great food, cocktails and extremely good service. Worth trying out new and unexpected combinations on the menu, and as someone who has been in Japan it definitely tastes and feels authentic.

Such a super cute spot! The moment you step in, it feels like you've left Lisbon and been whisked away to a cozy corner of Japan. The atmosphere is warm and thoughtfully designed, making the whole experience feel special. The food was excellent—each dish was beautifully presented and clearly made with care. You can really taste the attention to detail in every bite. I especially appreciated how balanced and flavorful everything was. A lovely spot for anyone craving Japanese vibes and delicious food. I’ll definitely be back!

Felt like being in Tokyo again! This place is awesome, no doubt best japanese restaurant in Lisbon. The atmosphere is the same as a traditional izakaya, the food is superb and the menu is huuuge! We would need to come back several times to try everything. They had a special menu for today and we ordered everything from there and still wanted to try a lot more. The chef is an artist, every dish is so pretty and delicious! Oishiii, I love it!
