As someone who loves karaoke, this place stole all my joy for my favorite activity. All of the…read morestaff was rude, including the manager. We ended getting a private room, only to find the karaoke system to be quite challenging to navigate. The staff did not bother to explain it. When we did find a song, it played the kids bop bootleg version! Far from the original song. I would almost prefer access to YouTube to find my songs that way. The song selection sucks too, and on top of that, the mics have a reverb automatically on them. I don't want that, or least give me the option to turn it off. The bathrooms are poorly maintained. The faucets didn't match, they had bottles of soap on the counters instead of in the proper dispensers AND of course no paper towel. Mind you, this was all on a Thursday night and there was NO ONE here! No excuse for terrible TERRIBLE SERVICE and a mismanaged bathroom. To be clear, the only reason why we came here was because the place we planned to go to was closed due to a plumbing issue. DO NOT COME HERE!!!! Save your money and sanity.

It has been ages since i came here last time, party of 2 dined in on Saturday night, nice…read moreatmosphere, we already had dinner and went to grab a drink, ordered seafood fishcake soup and pajun and yogurt soju, I wanted skewers fishcake soup but they ran out of it and recommended pot of seafood fishcake served on burner/stove, which was better(?) alternative, and combo pajun seem too dry, burnt and salty, I mentioned that to the server who was very kind and pleasant, he kindly re-made us seafood pajun instead which was so much better and good Yogurt soju was good too We moved everything to the noraebang/karaoke room and sang for two hours My partner ordered 3 more beers and at the end, he gave us some bonus drinks on the house which was also nice, He was very pleasant, friendly and kind I cannot wait to go back for that seafood fishcake soup again! It was so good and also it had some udon noodle in it too

Came here twice: once for restaurant and another for karaoke so this review consists of both:…read more Restaurant: Even though there's a grill in front of the table, all foods are made inside the kitchen. When asked why, the server responded because people have injured / burnt themselves in the past. You have to ask for complimentary rice. Unlike other BBQ places, they do not provide lettuce wraps. Banchan options are limited. Service: The server we had this time was friendly, however she didn't really know the menu and asked us for the menu letter. It's cool she's honest about it haha! They do check up on you if you needed to order anything else, however we had to ask for waters and banchan to be refilled. Karaoke: Affordable with the downside of having limited songs. They were missing a lot of the popular American ones. And don't have the full selection from artists but instead, around 5 songs per artist: Another downside is that for our party of 8, the air conditioning/ circulation wasn't strong enough and we ended up sweating.. Food: The Grilled Intestines and Korean cheese corn was delicious and I'd get these again. Update: got the grilled intestines again but this time was pretty burnt :( I recommend ordering items slowly as they don't taste good after sitting out for a bit. They also serve alcohol. Latest visit update: They played too much BlackPink songs (toxic femininity) and it's just waaay too much as someone who does not support BP... makes us reconsider visiting this place :/

The condensed milk in the cream complemented the banana and cake perfectly! Would definitely return just for this dessert. DRINKS We had their banana latte and calamansi drinks. Both were light and refreshing! SERVICE The staff are very kind and friendly! AMBIANCE There are two floors-- both offering a nice view of the restaurant and the street below. In the daytime, the place functions as a cafe, where guests often come to catch up with friends or study/work. At night, the place transforms into a cozy, intimate space to enjoy a nice meal with friends and loved ones. Ample seating is available on both floors, ranging from tables for 8-10, counter seating, and smaller tables for smaller tables for 2-4. PARKING Paid street parking is available at a limited capacity.

A lot to say about the restaurant and experience…read more Cute little spot. But very busy. We went during brunch hours on Saturday. Be very cautious when going with a group. Went with a group of about 7 or 8 and it was very difficult to get seating. The time you walk through the door, order your food, and to receive it will take quite a while. By 11:30 on Saturday, they have to stop people from walking in and wait outside until the line inside shortened. For anyone looking for the most authentic Filipino food, this is not the place. With that said, the food is still good. It has a Filipino flare, with a modern, for the masses, feel. Would try the place, but not frequently.

The interior had many tsvkes, some large, some smaller. I believe they regularly host events based on the section of the menu where you can order food for a large group. I got the shrimp with sugar cane wrap dish. It was a diy wrap dish. I was slightly disappointed because I thought the shrimp would be cooked with the sugar cane, but was only served sugar cane on the side. The sugar cane tasted kind of weird too... A little sour... The rest of the platter was loaded with mint, perilla leaves, carrot, cucumber, rice noodles, that you can wrap in the rice noodle sheet that comes with hot water to dip in. I also found a piece of plastic in my rice noodles. This is to say, nothing was incredibly mind blowing, but the food felt nourishing and the interior was spacious. Staff were attentive too and filled up my water regularly.

My favorite rolls were the Miso Butter Cod and the Mango Salmon. Both were incredibly flavorful, and the fish tasted fresh. Paired with wasabi, soy sauce, and ginger, every bite was delicious. The ambiance was relaxing and made for a great solo dining experience. The chef was also impressively quick, preparing each hand roll fresh right in front of you. The presentation of each roll was beautiful and definitely photo-worthy. If you're craving quality hand rolls and fresh fish, I'd highly recommend giving Chubby Nori a try!

LARGE handrolls that are packed full of protein. I love that they weren't skimping on the portions. One person would definitely get full after 3/4 rolls. A5 Wagyu: Great. What is better than rice and beef? So incredibly tender and savory. Spicy Tuna: PACKED FULL of tuna. The roll had sweet potato inside that was crispy and salty. Loved the contrast. It helped me not get too overwhelmed by the soft texture of the tuna. Uni: Buttery, UMAMI. So good. They gave such a generous portion of Uni too! An Uni lovers dream. Miso Cod: Smoky, flaky. Amazing. Maybe my favorite one. A very large portion of cod too! Highly recommend this one!! I will 10000% be back when I come back to Philly in the future.

I got their signature Ramen dish, which had a very generous portion of pork and fresh noodles. I was not a fan of their garlic broth and the significant amount of ginger slices. Lastly, my soft-boiled egg came out hard-boiled. That was a little disappointing, but I'll write it off as a fluke moment. I don't think I will get this Yamitsuki Ramen dish again, but I look forward to trying something else on their menu during our next visit. My wife got the Tan Tan Ramen. The proportion sizes was also good and her soft-boiled egg also came out hard-boiled. She felt as though the meat was very dry, and the bamboo was tough. It goes without saying, she is not very interested in coming back again, but we will give them a second chance since they are a small business. Ambience: pretty cool. The anime-themed wallpaper and Naruto on the menu were nice. I also enjoyed the music selection. It could've been a little lower. I had a hard time getting our waitress's attention and I attributed that to the music volume.
