Wow! Two trips to Japan but can't say I've ever had okomomyaki before! Delicious and a unique departure from the the usual Japanese fare available in the Bay Area. We had the signature Fugetsuyaki okonomyaki and a pork yakisoba noodle dish and both were excellent! Top it off with Asahi Super Dry on draft, an excellent small bottle of Hakatsuru unfiltered sake for the wife and you have a great meal! read more

Fugetsu - Sunnyvale - Asahi Dry on draft! - Japanese Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I've never been to japan before, so im not sure what to expect. But I had an absolutely phenomenal experience here. My friend and I came here for dinner one night and we decided to order the yakisoba and the uni okonomiyaki. The yakisoba's noodle were al dente, and it came with plentiful of shrimp, cabbage and pork belly all stir fried with yaki soba sauce!. a sweet and savory treat! . It was hot and served on a foil, while the grill in front of us was warm. it kept our yakisoba warm while our next dish came out. Oh I forgot to say, they make everything ordered in the back kitchen, then come our on a big paddle to serve at the table. it's kind of fun to see honestly. Uni okonomiyaki. who would've known that Uni would melt on top of the okonomiyaki. well at least you know it's fresh and they just made it. It had more cabbage and other meats than batter (which is great!). and of course, you have the sauce on the side for you to add more if you'd like. I really liked it here. it was packed when we came on a wednesday night. I can only imagine all the other nights there. read more

Portions are TINY. Like fun- sized. But without the fun... you don't get to cook it yourself. Flavors are okay. Standard. I get that it's tapa style and meant to be shared... but not at these prices! The yakisoba and okonomiyaki are both nearly $20 each! With no add-ons read more

It's really hard to find a Japanese restaurant that serves yakisoba and fugetsu does not disappoint. It hits the spot each time. The sauce is chefs kiss. Every yakisoba tastes similar except for the mayo. The okonomiyaki are also delicious as well; they're soft, a bit crispy on the outside, and loaded with savory sweet sauce. Like the yakisoba, they all taste similar. read more

OKONOMIYAKI! I had never had this until a trip to Hawaii, and when I realized that there was a place driving distance to my home, my fiancé and I had to try it. My fiancé loves seafood pancake, so this was definitely a good similar alternative for him. I recommend my order which was the spicy cod roe noddle topped okonomiyaki, so good. The space is a bit small, but is nice and intimate and would be good for a dinner date with your significant other. There is a flat top grill in the middle of the table which they place the food onto to continue cooking. There were so many options and we even missed some of the specials on the board, but definitely recommend trying this place out! read more

I came on a Friday night and waited about 30 minutes for my table and 15 minutes after preordering my food. Definitely loved the cheetama pork modan! It was full of flavor and the noodle/cabbage blend definitely added to the dish. I'd recommend getting your okonomiyaki modan style. Also ordered the chanpon yakisoba which was good but i felt that it was lacking in flavor compared to the okonomiyaki. It was pretty much like chow mien to me. Checked in for yelp for a free starter. We got the butter corn which was pretty much just corn; definitely wouldn't pay 4 bucks for it. The taiyaki was good especially since the whole thing was filled with red bean. Yum! Will definitely be back! read more

I love this place! Just don't go during lunchtime because the menu is very sparse.. dinnertkme is amazing though! They have no problems accommodating a 10+ party and long as you make a reservation and give orders before hand. I just made a list of orders from all my friends and gave it through the phone. (They needed it at least 30 min before hand) As soon as we got seated at our reservation time, all the food came out flying! It was wicked quick!! I ordered the grilled smelt with soy sauce butter, white tuna carpaccio, uni onigiri, and of course the fugetstu okonomiyaki. Awesome service, the waiters got even we needed efficiently and we also made additional orders (beer/appetizers) throughout the rest of the meal. They were great! read more

Great food as always! Their takeout is exceptional and of high quality. I will order again and visit once we reopened. read more

Who can say no to assorted noodles and okonomiyaki served on a griddle at your table? This is the perfect place for getting a refill of carbs after a tiring day out, and we typically pick a variety of okonomiyaki and yakisoba each time we come. Even thinking about it now makes my stomach growl. Bonus points for taking online reservations, so we don't have to wait too long for a table. read more

I came here for lunch on a Saturday and didn't even have to wait that long for a table. You could just put your name and phone number on the wait list and they'll call/text you when the table is ready. Love that service. Their lunch menu is pretty awesome since they'll offer 1/2 okonomiyaki and 1/2 soba or w/e else (there's like 10+ lunch combos). Super dig it. The okonomiyaki was REALLY good. I love the sauce, love the pork and it was just so tasty and fragrant. I'll definitely be back for more. Their soba was decent, the flavors were really good but not sure if the noodles were all the way done. The only bad thing about this place was the wait for the okonomiyaki.... It was well over 15-20 minutes for the food to come out and it took about the same time for someone to come take our order... This is a place to go when you have time to spare. read more

I was lucky enough to get seating during their soft opening and really looked forward to eating some good Japanese-style pizza. I've had this Japanese specialty in Tokyo before and enjoyed it immensely. Fugetsu is located on El Camino Real in Santa Clara. It's in a strip mall in the area known as K-Town. There's a 99 Cent Chicken and a Petmart in the same plaza. The parking is actually pretty small. It gets packed during peak lunch/dinner hours and driving around the parking lot is not easy for larger cars so beware of every car moving around you! When I got seated inside this new specialty restaurant a few weeks ago, I was a bit disappointed to learn that customers can't cook their own Okonomiyakis and Modanyakis on the table themselves. I wanted the same experience I had in Tokyo. Not having the option of customers cooking it themselves takes the uniqueness out of the whole experience. There's one chef in the back cooking everyone's order which I realized is not the most efficient way for this business. Why? After every table has put in their order, the one chef has to cook maybe 2 to 4 and each table waits for over 30 min just to get their entreé. It's a good thing we ordered other small appetizers first or else we would just be sitting there drinking beer. We probably waited around 40 min to get our Modanyaki. This is definitely not a place to go if you are in a rush. The service was good. The servers were very attentive and they did tell us that the entreés will take a while. It's a good specialty Japanese restaurant to have in the area, but I'm not really sure I'll want to risk the wait just for cooked Okonomiyaki I can get somewhere else in a much shorter amount of time and less of a price tag. Modan Fugetsuyaki : We decided to get the "everything" Modanyaki since it was our first time. Modan style has added noodles on top of the cabbage and proteins while regular Okonomiyaki has only proteins and cabbage. There wasn't enough of the proteins so really wasn't worth the price. It was mostly noodles and cabbage. The size was ok for one person. Butter Corn : This was a tiny amount of corn so wouldn't order this again. Tonpei-Yaki : This was more like a slice of bacon cooked on the inside of an omelette. It was tasty with the sauces. It did fill the void while waiting for our Modanyaki. Kimchi Pokka : This was just ok. It's more like stir-fried pieces of bacon and squid with kimchi on top. There was more kimchi than pork and squid. read more

I came with a couple of friends and we all decided to split and order everything on the menu! We ordered the Cheetama Pork Modan, Negi Tsukimi (Modan), and Pork! I was excited to try the Negi Tsukimi (available only during lunch), only to find out they ran out of green onions :(. What Asian restaurant runs out of green onions!? It did take a while for the Okonomiyaki to come after we ordered. It arrives already cooked, and the grill just keeps it fresh, warm, and crispy! I like that they provided, sauce, seaweed flakes, and chili flakes. As for the Okonomiyaki, it was savory and fresh; however there wasn't enough pork. I tasted mostly noodles and cabbage! After a while, all three Okonimiyaki started tasting the same, and I got sick of it. Fugetsu is a good place to try since it is a unique restaurant that specializes in Okonomiyaki, but I probably wouldn't come again (definitely a one-time thing for me). read more

You might've heard about how the South Bay is home to one of the largest demographical groups in the U.S... You heard correct...The South Bay is home to one of the largest "Weeaboo" populations in America at the moment. That's right, this place is trending to be the Mecca of the Weeaboo Empire. If you don't know what a weeaboo is, I suggest you watch Filthy Frank's weeaboo video on YouTube. It sums up the topic pretty well, albeit a little extreme and exaggerated. Filthy weebs love this place, and quite frankly, so do I. That isn't to say this place is void of any mistakes or things they could improve on, however. For those of you don't already know, Fugetsu is a Japanese franchise restaurant that specializes in Okonomiyaki, which is a savory pancake. I like to describe it as Korean seafood pancake meets stir fry meets Japanese Takoyaki. The flavors are really bold with the Okonomiyaki. It's sweet, savory and delicious. I've been made aware that many other Okonomiyaki places in Japan allow you to cook it yourself on the griddle provided at your table, but this place serves it to you already pre-cooked. It's probably for the better, I guess even the chef doesn't trust filthy weebs to cook their own Okonomiyaki. The Asahi beer pairs really well with the Okonomiyaki. As the already-mentioned bold flavors of Okonomiyaki does a cool little hand shake with the light crisp flavor of the Asahi beer, followed up with a nice little dab at the end from both sides. If you aren't going to have more than one glass, I recommend asking them to serve the Asahi beer at the same time the Okonomiyaki comes out, so it is still icy cold. I've ordered the beer beforehand and it was lukewarm/room-temperature by the time the Okonomiyaki comes out. Now, let's talk about the things I don't like or needs improvement: Almost everything short of the food needs improvement. The problem is, senpai didn't notice us. In fact, senpai probably doesn't even really notice anyone. The services and overall logistics of the restaurant seem all out of place. You have waiters/waitresses standing around sometimes doing nothing meanwhile there is a long queue outside of the door. The food also takes painstakingly long to be cooked and served. You've gotta realize that at the end of the day, it's just a savory pancake that takes 30-40 minutes, that is pretty damn absurd. At that metric, Okonomiyaki may be one of the least efficient foods to prepare and serve in a restaurant setting. Maybe have more than one chef making the Okonomiyaki? Just please do something to alleviate the long queues and the long wait times to have our meal ready. So yeah, chances are you'll spend some time waiting in line to be seated, and if not, you'll spend some more time waiting for your savory pancake to come out. By then, you'll probably be hangry as hell and almost a couple minutes short of storming the chef and letting him know a piece of your mind before the Okonomiyaki comes out and you bite into it and all your anguishes are gone. Furthermore, the griddle at the table is pretty useless from my observation. They come around to wab it with some lard, and maybe it gets a little warm? At the end of the day though, it pretty much just takes up space on the table since the food comes precooked by the chef. I think what happened was since this place was formerly a Shabu Way, the Fugetsu owner bought it out and thought he or she could reuse the shabu tables for okonomiyaki, but it couldn't heat up the griddle that well so now they are kind of SOL. This is all speculative, however, but really the griddle serves very little purpose other than to house the okonomiyaki and keep it semi-warm for the duration of the meal. So there you go, weebs. That's a piece of my mind about this place. The food is good, but you'll be hangry at almost every operative and logistical point in this restaurant. read more

Had the set with the mentai udon okonomiyaki, udon bowl, and salad. It was absolutely enormous and delicious - so be warned and be hungry.

For a dinner place it's very cramped. Think of a steam or sauna room in the size of the typical first class seating section of a regional 737 plane. But that's not even the part that really puts you off about coming here. At this establishment, apparently walk-ins take precedent over those who have RSVP or are on the waiting list for 30+ mins. Walk ins party of 3 + get seated before parties of 3 or less so I guess it's better to just stumble in with your drunk housemates than to actually be cordial and wait your turn like a civilized patron normally does...even for patrons of McDonald's have better decency and respect for others. Its a real shame when you tell a party of 4 people in a packed house that their wait time will be less than 10 minutes but then 4 walk ins get seated before them without even a sniff of a wait time... Being a party of 2 only you kinda think that you may luck out on wait times as you would at most sit down places... Not here... ...outside of that debacle.... The butter corn appetizer :it helps kill out the over salted scallops...but God help me if they try to preach to any of us that it's anything above " cheese corn" ...this is is more of a salt cleaner than it is an appetizer The seared scallop carpaccio: I've had fries with less salty taste than this. But it's not overwhelming ...still not sure if it's worth the price tho..meh The uni seafood "pizza/pie": I dunno how u get away with putting a high value ingredient on to a pie like entree as if it was pepperoni..but these guys did it somehow... And taste wise it's pretty dam good. But it falls apart like a soggy wet paper towel trying to hold the weight of. Bowling ball..not sure what to think of it The wait staff: the hostess and female server we're really friendly ...but the whole cutting the line in front of everyone really irked me still after the fact.. Esp when it's a full house ....that just ain't right read more

A savvy friend was able to secure a dinner reservation here during their soft opening and so we had the chance to delight our taste buds with this authentic Japanese delicacy. Fugetsu is a Japan-based restaurant chain that finally made its way to America - this is their first location! Their specialities are the okonomiyaki (commonly referred to as "Japanese pizza") and the yakisoba (stir-fried noodles). There are also a variety of Japanese appetizers that can be ordered to compliment the main entrees. The okonomiyaki takes about 20-30 minutes to prepare so order early. They deliver the freshly-cooked pancake to a hot plate on your table, which keeps it warm while you work your way through it. The pancakes are delicious and very filling. The portion is sizable so make sure you come hungry :) Opt for the modan if you have a big appetite - it adds a serving of noodles on top of the regular okonomiyaki. Fugetsu is a relatively small shop that takes on a typical Japanese theme. The cooking station is a windowed-off section near the back where one can view the pancakes being made. Unlike the locations in Japan, the pancakes are not cooked before your eyes (thanks again to my savvy friend for this tidbit of info). The service was great. They accidentally mixed up one of our orders and offered to take it on the house. For those wondering about clothing smell... yes, it's just like hot pot. You will be bringing the essence of okonomiyaki home with you :) There's no place better than Fugetsu to try out this unique Japanese dish that is the okonomiyaki! read more

I'm so glad that we have authentic and yummy Japanese okonomiyaki and yakisoba in the Bay Area! :) it's yummy and satisfying! My husband and I made a reservation on Yelp and we got our seats once we arrived. We ordered a beef okonomiyaki and a seafood yakisoba, roasted salmon roe rice ball, we also got a complementary bowl of kimchi after checking in on Yelp. I make okonomiyaki once in a while as well and the taste and texture of Fugetsu's okonomiyaki are just excellent! The price is fair- but I wish there is more meat. They made our orders immediately and we waited around 15 mins. Good portion is just right. This place is clean, servers are polite and friendly. We will return! read more

This place is not just good, it's great. There is not one place in the Bay Area that makes okonomiyaki style food correctly and Fugetsu makes it the way they make it in Japan. We got 6 different dishes for 5 people for take out and it was a food fantastic salivating meal that satisfied everyone. Thank you for your existence Fugetsu. Shin-san please don't close and go back to Japan...please do all possible to keep in business! read more

The service and food here was really good! We ordered the deluxe okonomiyaki and seafood okonomiyaki and they were suuuper filling. For the deluxe we decided to get it with the noodles and over for three people it was just enough. The server thankfully let us know that it'll take some time to make it and recommended us the fried calamari which was AMAZING. Super crispy and fresh calamari For three people the two okonomiyakis and the fried calamari was enough for us to be full. Will def recommend the food here! read more

Finally an okonomiyaki place! I adored the cute griddles on your table, and the okonomiyakis were DELICIOUS! Remember to add green onions on top and CHEESE! The yaki onigiri was so crunchy and fantastic. The mochi okonomiyaki was good for vegetarian eating, and the potatoes in it reminded me of brunch. Almost wanted some ketchup haha! And the pork one with cheese is a good standard for the okonomiyaki newbie. Can't wait to come back to try the omelettes! If you're not sure which okonomiyaki to get, just ask. They're so nice to you there. Also, our female server was fantastic! The guy also kept filling our water at halfway empty. WOW! read more

Got the deluxe and it was good as the reviews stated. A little rich but we really enjoyed it.

$25 Uni Seafood Tama comes out COMPLETELY different from the picture. False advertisement. And the waitress and manager are not doing anything about it saying it is seasonal thing. The description even says extra sea urchin flavored in soy sauce but we got only two pieces of sea urchin.. and a lot of the food was burnt. read more

Upon seeing the sign for this restaurant go up back in August, I googled their name and found that they are rather big chain in Osaka; a city that I would be travelling to in October. I was excited to see a new Japanese restaurant opening near my house; and even more excited to see that it was Okonomiyaki; something that I had heard about but never tried. Sadly the opening of the Santa Clara store was delayed, so to satisfy my curiosity I sought out a location in Osaka (29F of the Hankyu Grand Building in downtown), and now that I have tried both, I can honestly say that the food you are getting here in the US tastes exactly like they have in Osaka. The only major difference between this location and the one in Japan is that they don't have the capability to cook the food in-front of you instead they need to prepare it in a open kitchen before placing it on a hot-plate to stay warm in front of you. I really enjoyed the food; it was rather unique for the bay-area. If you haven't tried it before Okonomiyaki is essentially a chopped cabbage & egg pancake with some kind of meat inside and a lot of sauce on top. So good. The restaurant is still new and has some growing pains and there was a wait for the food, but the management was quick to correct any issues that arose. One last thing to note: this restaurant is not for strict vegetarians as they use animal fat to grease their pans and most dishes contain some kind of meat and/or eggs. Looking forward to the next time I get to visit! read more

Delicious! Attentive service as well, granted we came around 3 pm, but the wait staff were all very friendly and nice! The portions were well worth their price unless you were a big eater. Sadly wasn't able to cook it directly on your griddle but I'm assuming they don't want messing it up and possibly getting food poisoning. read more

Tip: it gets busy and popular so it'll be good to make a reservation if you can. It was such a fun and interesting experience eating here. We ordered one Okonomiyaki and one Shiosoba and it was the perfect amount for two people. It was our first time there and the waitress was very kind in being patient with us and giving us recommendations. It does take a while for them make the food (~20mins) but the food was delicious. You each get a mini spatula to scoop the food onto your plate. The cheese in the Okonomiyaki adds a unique yet delicious taste to it. read more

One of the very few places in the area that serves authentic okonomiyaki! Came here on a Wednesday night for dinner, and they said there was a 35 minute wait, which actually turned out to be a 10 minute wait! Keep in mind that it takes 30 minutes for them to make the okonomiyaki. I was under the impression that you cook the okonomiyaki yourself, but unfortunately it seems that there's just a hot plate that keeps the okonomiyaki warm while you eat it. That was a bit of a let down, but the food was still very tasty! We ordered the Fugetsuyaki and the Cheetama Pork Modan (with cheese, egg, and noodles). Sooo decadent, and soo delicious! Ordered the buttered corn to pass the time while we were waiting for the main dishes, and it was convenient that that appetizer was free with Yelp check-in :) read more

A really cool place. Restaurant is pretty narrow and there are planchas at certain tables to keep your food warm. My gf and I almost ordered a steak and one okonomiyaki.

Going to come again! read more

Check in on Yelp for a FREE appetizer. We chose buttered corn (yummy!). Service was great. The waiter was attentive and helpful in explaining what each type of food if you are unfamiliar. First some education! *Okonomiyaki is a grilled Japanese pancake with flour, egg, shredded cabbage and meat topped with a bunch of sauce (Japanese mayo, etc.) Technically you can put anything you like in it. *Yakisoba is grilled soba noodle. *Modanyaki is okonomiyaki with soba noodle. Now let's talk about food: Mentai Potato Salad ($7.5, 3 stars) - I was expecting this potato salad to be chunky. To be fair, it did say "mashed potato" on the menu. Small fish roes were mixed in the mashed potato, which added an interesting crunch. Spicy shrimp & scallop ($11, 3 stars) - generous portions of shrimp and scallops, but it was WAY TOO SALTY. I ended up finishing it with the okonomiyaki. Yaki onigiri with sea urchin ($7.5, 3 stars) - the uni was not the freshest I've had but the rice ball was grilled nicely. I would try the chazuke one (grilled rice ball soaked in tea broth). Pork & Kimchi Okonomiyaki ($13.95, 3 stars) - there was too much batter in this okonomiyaki, also a lot of sauce. I like the pancake to be crispier so I think it should be cooked longer. Garlic Mayo Seafood Yakisoba - ($17.95, 3 stars) - yakisoba is just soba noodle first cooked then grilled, and this one was nothing special. The garlic mayo had a good kick to it. Tip: Be careful with the HOT metal plate in the middle of the table. It's there to keep the food warm rather than cooking the food. Nonetheless, it may be extremely hot and simply touching it can burn your finger. read more

This is a small restaurant that does not fit that many people.. I came here with my BF on a Friday and was told the wait was going to be 45 minutes and that they would text me when our table was ready. OK, not bad. We live like 5 minutes away so we drove home. Almost immediately after getting home, we got a text saying our table was ready... I didn't complain since I'm always down to eat sooner rather than later, but that was a pretty poor estimation of waiting time, lol.. We ordered a modanyaki and a pork omelette since the waitress recommended getting a side as the entree would take a long time to come out. The pork omelette was covered in tons of mayo but was overall yummy, though the serving size was pretty small for the price in my opinion. The modanyaki took 30+ minutes to be ready! I find it very strange that it is pre-cooked and don't understand why we don't cook it at least halfway by ourselves when we have a hot plate in front of us... It takes away from the experience and also makes the food take too long. Plus, after putting the already-cooked modanyaki on our grill, it started to get burnt on the bottom even though we weren't eating that slowly. I think I'm mainly confused by the presence of the hot plates as something to "keep your food warm." I was really excited to try this place because I thought it would be like the okonomiyaki places in Japan! But at this point, it's preferable to just order okonomiyaki somewhere else where it won't take 30+ minutes I think. I might still come back because I love okonomiyaki. BTW 1 modanyaki is not enough food for 2 hungry people! I would recommend 2 okonomiyaki instead. read more

I like this establishment. It was very clean and welcoming. Staff were very hip and cool. Our appetizer was okay. We had the butter squid. Presentation was what you would expect. It tasted like butter and squid. Smelled good. We waited about 15 minutes for our Okonomoyaki. It was the Modan special (pork and cheese). At a price of about $16, my partner and I were decently satiated with the quantity served. I also was particularly pleased with the taste of the egg and cheese after letting it cook on the grill for a bit. Overall the meal was OK. Maybe we will come back here in the future. Maybe we won't. We paid a pretty penny for an egg with cheese, pork, cabbage, and noodles. That is the most offputting part of Fugetsu for me. Maybe it's because I'm an ignorant MURICAN or maybe it's because I'm a poor frugal pleb - maybe both. I even chanted itadakikasu before the meal. It was a nice experience. Hopefully you will be more WOWEd by this place than I did. read more

Food took a lot longer than we expected. We ordered 3 different onigiris (rice balls): the sea urchin with shrimp fish eggs inside, original negi with shrimp fish eggs inside and the salmon roe w/ mayo. It was nice how they fried the onigiris and I think this was the best part of the meal. The sea urchin though was sometimes too fishy. We order the pork belly--the picture on the menu made it look a lot bigger. The pork belly was thinly sliced and it was perfectly salted and had a generous amount of chopped green onions and side of lemon slice. It was good, but it was nothing special. It reminded me of the time I bought my own pork belly and salted and grilled them. It was delicious, but nothing crazy special I would say. As for the star of the show, the okonomiyaki. We got the cheetama pork modan and unfortunately it was this dish that came out ridiculously slow. Once we got it, it just wasn't as satisfying as we were told it would be. It lacked the crunch and it was just a combination of eggs, veggies, pork, squid, noodles and cheese pancaked together. While the teriyaki-like sauce made it better, this just didn't really make me go crazy for me. It was very filling since it was grilled with all the creaminess, fattiness, and cheesiness. Reluctant to come back, but I'm glad I gave this place a try! read more

Our experience here was actually pretty unpleasant and I can't say that for most places I've been to. My boyfriend and I decided to try this place out because it seemed like a fun dining experience and the food looked good. It was a Friday night so it was pretty busy. Waiting for our table, it seemed like it was going to be a 4-5 star restaurant for me. An employee(seemed like the owner/manager) came up to us and explained the menu and was very welcoming. We were seated maybe after 10 mins of waiting....and then we waited 20 mins to order...I think there were 5-6 servers who passed our table; a few I made eye contact with, but no one came to take our order. I finally flagged someone down and he seemed in a hurry to get the order in(it was 45 mins before closing). We got our order fairly fast. The tonpei-yaki was good. However the yaki-soba was so dry, hard, and flavorless. It didn't seem cooked at all and I'm pretty sure our burner wasn't on cause our food got cold 10 mins in. And I wish it ended there, but then we get our check and the server tried to tell us we ordered 5 entrees and I even asked to order another...which seemed pretty sketch to me. I thought he was gonna argue more but he made a face, talked to the manager guy and came back with our correct bill. Such a weird place. I usually try not to try so mean writing reviews, but this is my honest experience here. read more

Came here for lunch on a Monday and there was no problem getting seated in the middle of what would be lunch rush. We ordered the following to share: Omusoba: Pork wrapped in an omelette. I enjoyed the thick noodles and the nicely cooked omelette. It wasn't good but nothing I would return for. Negi Tsukimi-Tama: Pork okonomiyaki with egg and a ton of green onion (yum!) I thought it was on the sweet side so I needed to add a lot of the chili powder to balance it. I'm not sure why there is a griddle if you are served everything ready to eat. Maybe it's just for dinner? Service was friendly but a little slow even though it was not busy. I probably wouldn't go back but it was good to try. read more

Super tasty Okonomiyaki with noodles. I highly recommend the Modanyaki deluxe version. A must try once in your life!

I had the omiyaki(the dish that takes about 30min to make, they let you know about that up front and it's stated on the menu as well) the dish was really good all around. Maybe I'll ask if I could get a little less mayo next time tho but thats just preference. read more

I love this place and I think its super underrated. Maybe not on yelp because the reviews look good but many of the people I know have actually not heard of this place until I bring it up. First tried this place about 2 years ago with my mom. We didn't plan it and only picked it because we were in the area. The number one thing that I would recommend is the omusoba, which is only available for their lunch menu. I would describe it as a stir-fried soba noodle dish with pork and veggies with a thin egg omelette on top drizzled with sauce. I went here again with my entire family and we all agreed this was the best dish that we ordered. The food is cooked in the kitchen and then at the table you're seated at as hot grills to keep the food warm and enjoyable. The table has extra sauce and spice you can add to your plate. I've tried other dishes here and I like those too but I can't remember the names right now. One complaint someone had was that the dishes are quite heavy. The food is very dense and saucy so I could understand where they're coming from. read more

Tourist review. We were out and about when lunch struck mid week. There are several Asian restaurants in the area, but we randomly picked this one. We struck gold! This small establishment was packed with lunch diners. It is clearly a favorite of the local crowd. The staff were really friendly. We expressed our novice status and we were quickly guided through the menu. Accepting the suggestion to pick a few different items, we were treated to a multi-course lunch for a VERY reasonable price (salad, soup, and entree $12.95). The food was phenomenal! I had never had yakisoba before. Although very good, I could have made a meal of the seafood kimchi soup or the beef udon. Both had amazing flavor and tons of meat. Lunch did last longer than an hour. I understand why some people chose not to wait for a table. Turnover was slow for the lunch hour. However, the food would be worth taking a long lunch. read more
