Service Rating: 7/10
One of the most popular Japanese restaurant in Brussels. For those uninitiated to the Japanese cuisine, this is a perfect starting point. There is a daily 'Bento', which is the plat du jour, and is usually a full warm meal (3 or 4 items) for a fixed price of 10 € which includes Tea and Soup. An unbeatable value, especially for a Japanese restaurant. Bear in mind that the Bento runs out before 1 pm, except on Thursdays, when they serve Sashimi. Then, it runs out before 12.30.
I always see regular faces there which is a good sign. If you are in a hurry, you can be in and out in 15 minutes. Beats eating an unhealthy sandwich any day.
The dinner time is also fairly busy and it is impossible to get in without a reservation. Dinner is slightly more expensive. Lot of cooking and grilling during dinner is done in front of the diners. So is cutting and skinning of the fish. For those who enjoy food and everything around it, this is nice to watch, and a sure sign of cleanliness; for those are squeamish about these things, do not sit near the counter.
The chef, working in the front, is usually friendly but can be grumpy sometimes and makes no apologies for it. He is usually in a good mood if there are some beautiful girls sitting at the counter.
This is a no-frills restaurant with a focus on good food and good ingredients and one of the best price/quality proposition among Japanese restaurants in Brussels. Service is fast and efficient.
