Nice sushi good taste and a nice clean place. Very tasty. To bad they had no beer on the menu. Very fresh fish and good portions. Maybe a menu or selection would be fine to order.

We got here by pure chance after landing in DMK and having couple of hours to spend. The prices are affordable, and we didn't expect this kind of treat! The dish sizes are great. Everything was served fresh and with care! The lovely team served us kindly and made sure we got each of our dishes well prepared. We enjoyed every dish! Each was flavourful and unique and was truly authentic Japanese cuisine. Definitely a great surprise for this hidden gem.

The tastyest and best sushi I've had in Thailand and even in USA. Forget about the drunkard farang complaining about lack of beer as if that matters in a restaurant where the food is amazing.

I'm not going to lie, it's just ok. But you know what, it's better than Fuji over at Central Plaza but let's be real, this area of Bangkok isn't gonna make it on Anthony Bourdain's itinerary. The restaurant itself comfortable inside and the service was good so extra point for that.

Located just near the entrance of Ram Inthra soi 5. Parking aplenty and is located just at the front of the restaurant. My go to place for affordable Japanese food when in the area. They have the usual fare of shading, sushi, rolls, dons, etc. Sashimi is always fresh and cuts are pretty generous. Do expect the pricing for premium items like unagi and wagyu to be higher than the normal dishes. The wasabi packs a punch at this place, best to go easy at first to test your tolerance. Love the staff here, friend and always wears a big smile! They are kind enough to send my orders to the neighbouring bar as well!
