Booked this restaurant specially to celebrate our honeymoon and it was worth every yen! The food was absolutely amazing and showcased the best of Awaji produce. But the highlight was definitely our wonderful chef who took the time to explain every dish to us and chatted with us all night. Would love to come back here every time we visit Japan!

My husband randomly found this gem! We took the counter seat and I am so glad we did because we got to interact with the Chef, Amari, who was honestly the best he tried to explain everything and was so very sweet. He also makes some food! Definitely go if you can

The food was varied, with a couple of choices to personalize your experience. The meat and the curry were especially great! We sat in front of the chefs as we'd ordered the teppanyaki, which was fun. The atmosphere is intimate, with 6-7 teppanyaki seats, and a few private rooms. The staff were very friendly, and the chef who I think was the head chef spoke good english, which helped wrt. explaining the dishes etc. I found the location itself to be a bit refreshing, as it was a 10min walk from the nearest metro station, and the area is quiet. The extra trip was well worth it though!
