Boriana Karakasheva

Authentic atmosphere - beautiful wall paintings and tables where you sit on ground. Large sake choice, but most are only sold in bottles. I got disappointed with my dish, the description misled me.

Jamie Goodwin

Sit upstairs for a slightly more authentic feel. I come here every year with Manchester Jitsu club. Can't recommend it highly enough. If you want a taste of everything, get the Samurai selection.

Aline Assis

really good guyozas and sushi . friendly staff and nice music . honest price.

Estella Zeng

Sukiyaki soup base is too sweet to be authentic , but still one of the best u can get in Manchester.

Joseph S

The lunch buffets are tasty and amazing value. But avoid the matcha green tea ice cream—the texture's not that great (lots of big ice crystals).

Marina

Bento boxes are amazing!

Philip Hanes

Go for the £15 buffet with a pot of green tea ! Ask for more of the mackerel and eel ! Yums!

Bora Demiralan

it's getting less better every time I come here. two disappointments so far and two great comments in the past

Derek Liew

Bento of the day comes at a reasonable price.

Paul Sweeney

Ask for the traditional tables upstairs if you can.

Mike Braun

Good sushi . Bento boxes are great value .

Joe Maddison

£9.50 Bento Box is outstanding value and excellent quality. Staff were friendly and the food was very tasty. Would recommend highly.

Lewis Smith

The £9.50 lunch is massive and has good sushi

Joseph Dent

Good stuff. Japanese goods in the basement too!

Posco Tso

Brown Rice tea is gorgeous (beware, tea pot is really heavy)

Maxim Fedotov

One of the best Japanese restaurants in town

Brendan Keegan

The £12.50 buffet is the new £10! Upgrade for extra fishy yumminess

Sophie Coates

Sushi and bentos are delicious, staff are very friendly but stay away from the sukiyaki , way over priced and just not traditional.

Nay Kersh

Nice food but extremely slow service. Don't understand any Japanese words from the menu, which makes ordering difficult. Didn't ask if we wanted dessert , and charged us for the rice they never brought

Tian Cereal

As an Asian I can only say the food is below average with slow service. I'm sure there's a lot more better places else where.

David Edmundson-Bird

order the £10 Sushi buffet at lunch time. it's the same as the £15 and they keep coming and asking if you want more. Fishtastic

Bora Demiralan

Wow! That was a great experience

Kira Jones

Disappointing with service and food on a Sunday lunch . My friend had specifically asked no sesame seeds had to ask for it to be redone after 30 mins of waiting. Gone downhill a lot :(

Krissanapong Wongsawarng

the price is reasonable. the taste is traditional. lets try.

Juicy John Dr by day
