We booked a Friday night table, which meant a 2 month wait, but it was well worth it! The food was sensational - our waiter recommended some great options and I enjoyed all the specials too! Great service - really quick and friendly; our waiter even recommended some places to visit in Tokyo during an upcoming holiday! Brilliant atmosphere; restaurant was completely full for most of our visit (took a rare snap empty between sessions)!
You need to book well ahead of time (months). However it is well worth the wait! The menu offers some great options and the combination of tastes and flavours are incredible. Some of the meat dishes such as the beef is a must. However, they do offer a great vegan menu if asked and it doesn't limit options too much.
Service was very friendly and a 90 mins slot should more than fit 3 courses. A must for foodies in Nottingham.
Absolutely superb! Cannot fault this place. It’s creative, it’s delicious, it’s unique and everything from start to finish was divine! Service was immaculate, with smiles, natter and genuine care, and the vibes in the place are buzzing - lucky we got a table really and it’s clear to see why! The £15 lunch deal is a steal btw (even though we couldn’t resist a few other dishes and desserts, and recommend you don’t either haha)
The skewers were all so different and all so yummy, meaty and umami, but the tuna takes the top spot for me, being delicate and light yet so perfectly seasoned in its sauce. I was really surprised by just how good everything was, including the quality of the rice and snacks, I mean look at the prawn toast. The little rolls made me girlfriend so happy :)
Thanks for a wonderful meal and we cannot recommend the tira-miso enough. The sweet and salty notes are something I’ll be dreaming about for a long time to come…
This place was the bizz for good quality food. Friendly staff. Nothing too much trouble. We had lunch time deal 15.00 each. Definitely worth it...not to mention the dessert 🍨 everything superb
Incredible food. Perfectly cooked, beautifully served. Every course, from entree to desert was a sight to behold, with a great beer selection to match. Time limit on table is quite strict, as the place is so busy, so dont hang around chatting too much!
Wow wow wow. It's rare something lives up to the hype.. this place does and not breaking the bank either. Flavours. Service. We are still talking about individual dishes the following day. Sadly, rarely get to go out for nice dinners, so this being my graduation I was really really pleased with this venue. Compliments to the whole team

It gets very difficult to book a table at this restaurant, and on this occasion had to chance our luck by going to their walk in lunch on Saturday. There was a long queue when we arrived so was sent to their sister bar around the corner whilst we waited for a table to become free. Food was still amazing and the service impeccable!

Revisited my favorite restaurant in Nottingham! Food was excellent as always. Have posted latest menu and pictures. The sashimi and prawn toast was amazing! Thank you to the staff who are attentive but not obtrusive. This place is an absolute gem.

Everyone in our party had their favourite dish but the braised pork and tiger prawns were particularly enjoyed. As it was our first visit we tried as many dishes as we could and they are all very good and made fresh to order. The sushi salmon is also one of my favourites of the evening. Sadly we were so full we didn't have room for a pudding, but we promised that we would return to have another go at the menu.
One of the best restaurants in the Midlands. Second visit. Menu evolves. All the plates were of excellent quality. The prawn toast remains my favourite item. The pork and kettuce is also very good. Check the specials board though as these items always prove worthwhile but seasonal. Good drinks also and decent service.
Amazing cheese cake! you have to try
booking a space here been challenging but eventually find the right timing for visiting.
had lunch menu with snack + 2 skewers+sticky rice =£15
pot of tea and dessert 🍮
satisfied !
We visited today for the lunch menu, as it is walk in only we were put on a waiting list and sent to bar for a cheeky wine and cocktail. The wait was approx 45mins but we waited less than half an hour!
We ordered soo much food and it was all outstanding!
Starters we ordered miso soup which was a special, plate of pickles and edamame. All packed with amazing flavour! The mains we had were, the chicken skewers, raw salmon, beef skewers, sweetcorn fritters and 2 specials, pork belly skewers and pork with miso butter! All of this food was incredible like nothing we have had before! We had to round it off with a dessert and we chose the matcha cheesecake and amazake cherry and almond and both were devine!
We weren't drinking but the drinks menu looked great! Loads of Japanese whisky to chose from and beers!
The service was quick and friendly. The staff were very knowledgeable and chatty! I loved the decor it was simple but effective (loved all the serving plates) If I could give more than 5 I would! Will definitely be returning! Well worth the money and wait!
