  • Sangchu-twigim tendon (tempura rice bowl with lettuce wraps)Light, crisp batter with an interesting green-lettuce wrap combination
  • 5-piece omakase sushi selectionThick fish slices; the particularly firm flounder may divide opinions

  • Delicious house-made kimchi
  • Generous amount of tempura

Downsides

  • Small rice portion
  • The firm texture of the flounder sushi may not suit everyone
  • The seafood rice bowl is very small
