A restaurant so good I went twice in two weeks--and the second time, I brought my family. They can get busy and don't really take reservations, but you can go online, put your name on the waitlist with your estimated arrival time and party size, and with any luck they'll have your table ready by the time you get there. Inside it's a little narrow, but it's bigger than it looks, and they easily seated our party of seven without issue. Ton Shou is mainly known for the Instagram videos of their bubbling Wagyu cheeseburger, but it's actually a katsu house famous for both chicken, pork and salmon katsu--and pretty much anything fried, like tempura. I first went for the cheeseburger, and OMG was it good. It's super rich (almost like French food), bursting with garlic and that deep Wagyu flavor. The bubbling melted cheese is liquid mozzarella, and the burger itself comes with two slices of cheddar. Fair warning: it's served on a piping-hot skillet, so tread carefully. The second visit was all about the dishes I'd spotted the first time and wanted to try. The spicy tuna and crispy rice was one of the best I've had--the little slices of jalapeño actually deliver on the "spicy" promise. For the katsu, I asked our waitress for a recommendation between pork and chicken; she said salmon is their most popular, followed by chicken. I'd already eaten fish that week, so chicken it was. She also suggested adding a side of curry along with the katsu sauce. (Pro tip: before the meal arrives they bring a little plate and ram so you can crush sesame seeds for the sauce.) The chicken katsu was delicious--hand-breaded tempura crust, juicy chicken, and that curry sauce were just . I actually don't know which I liked more... Everything was so good that I'll definitely be coming back and bringing friends.
Very solid izakaya! Great vibe, great food, fresh fish, and friendly service. The only thing that didn't wow us was the sushi rice. I'm a sushi rice snob, so it might just be me. Best bites: All the fish was very fresh Chicken karaage The katsu was crispy and perfectly cooked I will definitely be back to throw back a few and try more of the menu
Came here during lunchtime on Sunday, I was expecting a long wait, but it actually wasn't bad. We were seated within 5 minutes. The restaurant itself was fine, decor is okay, kind of basic. However, food is far from basic. Yes, a little on the pricey side, but once you get your meal - you'll understand why it costs that much. We got a small salmon roll order as an appetizer, Japanese Wagyu Cheese Burger (this one, we were excited to get!) and the Kata Rosu Katsu. The items took a little while to get, but they do have a disclaimer on the menu that states they need a little bit of time to prepare the katsu because its made fresh to order. However, we received the cheeseburger even after I got the katsu, so I'm not sure why the cheeseburger took that long. I wished the servers checked on you more often when you're waiting for the meal, rather than after you received it. It feels better when you know the meal is taking a while, and someone is there to reassure you that it will coming soon. I was so glad I got the Kata Rosu Katsu (the fattier pieces) Pork Shoulder Loin Cutler. It was so tender, and juicy, not dry at all! The breading was so light, and just let the meat do the talking. It came with little pickle side items, steamed rice, cabbage salad and a soup. Everything from the soup to the dressing was delicious! I'm a little sad they didn't give me the sesame to grind up, like they did to everyone around me. I'm not sure what that was about. Server just gave me the tonkatsu sauce with sesame seeds on top. I didn't get the whole experience. The burger was a whole presentation in itself! They pour the cheese fondue on the burger with sizzling plate - table side. Very cute. We just wished there was a little more cheese fondue, it was only enough for half of a burger if you want to be generous in your cheese bites. By the time my kid got to the second half, cheese was gone and the burger was a little toasted/burnt lightly from the sizzling plate and being dry with no liquid left to help. The burger itself was juicy though! The salmon roll was tasty, normal salmon roll but you can tell the fish is fresh. Sushi rice has a lot of flavor. I really loved this place and we'll be sure to come more often.
You should made reservation if you plan to dine here. They features a lot of Japanese dishes not just sushi. Personally, I think Guyodon is the highlight of this restaurant. The uni pasta is a little too fishy and small portion. Others dishes are little pricey compared to other Japanese restaurants around Chinatown. Overall, the services are nice and attentive.
Ambiance is cute, romantic dim lighting. A cute date spot for sure. Actually came here on a date night. The first time I came and got katsu, I wasn't impressed at all. But I came back and this time ordered other stuff & my experience was amazing! Service was great, we had reservations at 8pm on a Thursday night. Surprisingly it was a little crowded, we just waited like 10 mins. Our server gave us cheesecake on the house for the small wait. She was the sweetest. This time I ordered mainly sushi and the Wagyu cheeseburger. My favorites that I would highly recommend is yellowtail carpaccio & the sexy salmon roll! The in pasta is good if you like something creamy. Surf and turf roll & tuna lover was good but I think I would want to try other rolls there too! Wagyu burger with the uni pasta was too much. Too heavy and creamy. I would recommend only picking one. But definitely would come back for the sushi!
My two children, my niece and nephew, and I stopped by Ton Shou for lunch while we were in the area. After reading the positive reviews, I decided to give it a try. The restaurant itself is beautiful--dark, modern, and inviting with an upscale feel. We started by ordering several dishes, including the Yellow Yellow Roll, chicken thighs, okra, edamame, salmon sashimi, Salmon Katsu, and Tori Katsu. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We were really enjoying our meal. After my son's Salmon Katsu arrived, I decided to add a Lemon Salmon Roll and the Avocado Crispy Rice. This is where the experience changed. When I tried to place the additional order, the gentleman who brought our food was dismissive and seemed irritated before eventually coming back a few minutes later to take it. About 20 minutes later, the Avocado Crispy Rice arrived, but the Lemon Salmon Roll never did. By the time everyone else had finished eating, I asked our server about it. Since we needed to leave, I told her we could just cancel the roll. She returned and said it was already being plated and asked if I wanted it to go. In the middle of a Las Vegas summer, I didn't want raw sushi sitting in the car, so I asked her to bring it out instead. It arrived after everyone had finished eating, and I ended up eating it quickly before leaving because I was still being charged for it. I was also surprised to find an automatic gratuity added to the bill because our party had five people. Four of those five were children under 13. I couldn't find anything on the menu or website mentioning this policy, and no one informed us before we ordered. When I asked about it, I was simply told, "That's the way it is." The food was genuinely very good, which makes this review disappointing to write. Unfortunately, the service at the end of our meal overshadowed what had started as a great dining experience. I don't mind tipping--in fact, I usually tip well for good service--but having our order forgotten, being charged for a dish that arrived after we were ready to leave, and then being met with an unhelpful response about the gratuity left a bad impression. I really wanted this to become one of our regular spots, but based on this experience, I don't see myself returning.
This place was highly rated on Yelp so we had to check it out while visiting. It's in a busy strip mall but we came later on in the evening on a week night so parking was fairly easy. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. Our server, Leah, was very friendly and attentive. We ordered the katsu platter with 2 different pork cuts and 1 piece of shrimp. It came with the softest rice. The meat was so tender and juicy! It was really good! I also loved the pork belly skewer, enoki bacon skewer and the hotate nigiri. The strawberry lychee high ball was yummy! The place looks very authentic and intimate. We had a great time and wanna come back to try the wagyu burger!
Stopped by here after Meowwolf, as I haven't checked out the local Chinatown food area in a few years and wanted to see what was here. We were only going to come here to grab a snack but then saw Ton Shou and the Katsu cravings kicked in! We walked in, asked for a seat for 2, and were quickly seated. The place was already pretty full with a nice vibe, making it a pretty intimate feel, but luckily there were about 2 empty tables, so we didn't have to wait too long! We started off with some sake, extremely flavorful! And I had a Sapporo as I was thirsty from walking. We ordered the Rosu Katsu, and I believe the Roe/Uni Donburi. The Food came out quickly, and damn, did it look good! I took a bite of my Cutlet and said Oh my, this is DELICIOUSSS. I've had a set like this in Hawaii and think this is pretty similar. The sauces were superb with the Katsu, and my partner dug into the roe/uni donburi, and that gave a nice settled and mellow taste. The meal made a great alternative Pork Turf and Egg Surf combo, and David was a wonderful server! He was great throughout the night and even let us know about the complimentary cheesecake which was great once I got back to the hotel as I was too stuffed after eating that large cutlet! Definitely will be coming back!
I was in China town to grab a drink for a yelp event and wanted to get some dinner if I was going to make a drive all the way out there. This has been on my list for a bit and was one of the few lunch spots I saw in the area that served a charashi bowl. Honestly most of their menu looked drool worthy, but I am trying to eat a bit healthier, so it seemed like the best option for me. The restaurant is narrow, and all the seating is lined up in a row, but they painted and decorated it in a way that it didn't just feel like a long hallway. We were sat towards the back, which was perfect because our toddler was extra lively that day and it helped us stay out of peoples way. Plus they have a fun logo light that shines on the floor and he had a blast dancing inside it to the music. We got there just before 5 and we're seated quickly, but it did fill in fast after we arrived. This is no surprise after we ended up getting our meal, which was amazing. In addition to the charashi bowl, my fiance got the chicken katsu, and we got the beef tataki to share. The charashi bowl was fresh and a good size. The katsu was super light and tender. They have you grind your sesame seeds to make your dipping sauce, lots of yummy pickled veg and a nice salad. The miso soup here is unique here. A bit more like chicken soup, very savory and comforting. The beef tataki was served with a bed of arugula and grated cheese and a sauce that was soooo addictive. The portion was solid to for the price. This spot is definitely a new favorite spot, and I can't wait to try their burger served in a bubbling cheese sauce.
I ordered all the cold dishes so they came out first for our party of 5. The dressing on the wagyu carpaccio with arugula was just a tad intense (I think it could be diluted a bit?) but overall everything was really good. My foodie son said "this place is solid" when only eating my cold items, but was really excited to dip his katsu sando into his side of curry once his food arrived. The husband finished the hamburger; my daughter said the udon was the best one she's had in a while (she always order udon when we go out so that's really saying something!). The husband asked if I had bookmarked this place; no I did not, we just happened upon it because we needed to eat something before going next door to Moignet for dessert. We don't live in Vegas but would definitely come here again on a future trip.
The servers are on top of it. They come to you quick and get anything requested immediately. They're very helpful and were able to answer all of our questions. The food is delicious. The chicken katsu was super tender and cooked perfectly. All the skewers were also cooked perfectly and were soft and juicy and not at all dried out. The shrimp lollipops were really good and super full of shrimp. Gyoza were well flavored and cooked to perfection. The scallop croquette thing was not my favorite. It didn't taste much like scallop but it wasn't bad, it was mostly just fried cream.
If you're looking for amazing Japanese food. Ton Shou is the spot to visit. They can get busy, so I definitely recommend joining their waitlist on Yelp. My kids love their truffle wedges. Their crispy rice is amazing and I love getting their ebi katsu. I LOVE their Japanese tartar sauce. It's the best one I've tried so far compared to other restaurants we've visited. Our server Nelson was friendly, amazing, and attentive. Making sure we were doing ok. I definitely recommend this spot.
Food was absolutely delicious. Maybe I'm being a little dramatic? The Japanese wagyu cheeseburger has so much flavor and cooked perfectly. The lollipop crispy shrimp was crispy, I could have ate 10. The spicy ramen had all the flavor. The pork belly skewer was everything I was hoping. I loved the ambiance here. Nice cozy and dark. Nana was our server and she checked on us often. She made some of the recommendations and was spot on. Finished tonight off with the Japanese cheesecake. Definitely coming back here soon.

I went to Ton Shou twice, in a week, just because their Wagyu cheeseburger is soo delicious! My first ever visit to Ton Shou was on Tuesday evening, and then went again Thursday! Both times, the place was super busy! Ton Shou is located in Chinatown off of Spring Mountain and S Wynn Road. It's near the Chinatown Plaza. Parking can get relatively difficult in this area, especially during the evening hours. It can be really challenging to find an open spot. Sometimes, I'll have to park at the Chinatown Plaza and just walk over. Inside the restaurant was pretty cool! There were several tables available. The menu had a wide range of options from Starter: Chicken Karaage, Shishito Pepper, Portobello Fries, Crispy Rice, Scallop Cream Croquette Katsu: Rosu KAtus, Tori Katsu, Tonshou Special, Hire Katsu and more! Udon and Ramen: Tempura Udon, Tonshou Katsu Ramen, Tempura Cold Sora Sandos, Gyudon, Katsudon, Sashimi, Uni Pasta, Skewers (Pork Belly, Chicken Thigh, Okra, Shiitake, and more)! Service was great, even though it was super busy. Both times I went to Ton Shou, I had to get the Japanese Wagyu Cheese Burger. It was a Wagyu cheese burger served on a sizzling grill with creamy cheese fondue! My husband, on the second visit, got the Pork Katsu. We did order the Menchi Skewer (pork and Onion, fried) for an appetizer. The Menchi Skewer arrived at the same time my husband's received the Pork Katsu. I told him not to wait since I wasn't sure when the cheese burger was going to arrive. It did take another 15 minutes for my order, which I didn't mind waiting. I did have some bites of the Menchi Skewer and the Pork Katsu. Both were delicious! When the Wagyu Cheese Burger did arrive, it was quite the experience. The cheese was poured onto the sizzling grill. I had to wait another 5 minutes before I could eat the burger. Luckily, I was provided a knife and fork to eat it since it was relatively messy! It was so delicious though! It tasted like there was some garlic in the cheese. The burger was super flavorful! This is one of my new favorite dishes! Food was fantastic at Ton Shou and is one of my new favorite restaurants in Las Vegas! If you haven't had a chance to visit Ton Shou yet, I highly recommend it. Service was great and the food was soo yummy! read more
~ food: chirashi bowl 9/10 fish was so delicious and rice was nicely seasoned. price is a bit steep for a bowl that doesnt have premium fish like uni and sweet shrimp. the soup it comes in is also very delicious, doesn't taste like the premix miso soups lemon salmon roll 10/10 great fish to rice ratio and the yuzu sauce was very unique ~ service: friendly and quick ~ parking: plaza parking available but very limited since there's a lot of other stores in that plaza read more
The restaurant is busy. You sign in and receive a text when your table is ready. The are a sufficient amount of options to choose from. The service is good and the food is amazing. There's a reason this place stays busy. read more
Read how good this place was so I made a 5:15 reservation on a Saturday. Even though we had reserved, it still took about 15 minutes for them to have our table ready. The space is small, so I think reservations are recommended. They do have a longer bar table but unclear if it's utilized well for smaller parties. I shared the ton shou combo and the 3 choice sashimi. It was more than enough to share between the two of us. Our friend got the hire combo with curry which was also a generous portion. With the set you get some sesame seeds to grind with a sauce. Super filling meal, reminded us of Japan! read more

We've been coming to Ton Shou for years, and it never disappoints! Hands down the best katsu around in Vegas - always perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and not greasy! The service is just as amazing as the food. Lea took such great care of us and was incredibly sweet, friendly, and attentive. She made our visit even better! This place is definitely a local fave for a reason. If you're craving authentic, delicious katsu with outstanding service, Ton Shou is the spot. We'll definitely keep coming back! read more
I recommend getting their tonkatsu -- they've really mastered the recipe. The katsu is crispy, light, and not dry at all. Probably one of the best restaurant katsu dishes I've had. The cabbage salad and dressing complement the katsu really well and add a refreshing balance. I also enjoyed the rice -- you can actually taste each grain. I also tried the mushroom fries, chicken and beef skewers, and the hamachi kama. Honestly, I'd pass on all of those and just stick to the katsu. The mushroom fries tasted mostly like batter because the mushroom slices were too thin to really have much mushroom flavor. The chicken and beef skewers were chewy and lacked flavor. As for the hamachi kama, it was way too fishy for my taste. Despite all the "recommended" tags on the menu, I personally wouldn't recommend those dishes. Come here for the katsu -- that's definitely the standout. I'd skip most of the appetizers and sides. read more
Vegas has A LOT of Japanese places to choose from but I think Ton Shou is the most authentic and closest you'll get to being in Japan! I used to think another popular spot in Vegas that I've been going for years had the best Tonkatsu but Ton Shou does it the best. I love the options of protein, salmon, chicken, different cuts of pork. The rice is some of the best rice I've had. The dressing for the salad is a great compliment. My first visit here I had to the get the Wagyu burger with the fondue. This is pretty spot on of what a burger like this would taste like in Japan. I would def recommend this and different from other burgers you can get in Vegas Apps I also tried Takoyaki - Love it, I feel like it's elevated from its street food version Ahi Crispy rice - Great texture, has a kick, and the ahi works well if it. Creamy Scallop Croquette - this is one of better croquettes in Vegas. Love how it's fried. This is one of Top 3 choices to recommend to eat as a local or to anyone visiting! With that in mind I'd recommend getting a reservation or at least getting on the waitlist as once it's gets busy it can be a long wait. read more
Best katsu place in Las Vegas! Outside was crispy with not too thick of the breading. The pork inside was tender. You get to crush your own sesame seeds for the tonkatsu sauce as well. Favorite dish was definitely the kabocha (pumpkin) and the pickled vegetables. Next time, would love to get their Vegetable set! Also the dressing/sauce that they used for the yellowtail collar was fantastic! Inside was a nice ambiance - perfect for a date or a small friend hangout. Parking is tough typically at this plaza so aim to come a bit earlier to find a spot. read more

Pretty good izakaya place. Excellent service. Our server Nelson was great. The draft beer is really refreshing. We had uni udon, katsu, skewers, sashimi, oysters. I would say the highlight is the katsu and uni udon. Sashimi was good quality. Scallops could be softer as well. The beef tongue skewer could be softer. Felt like I was chewing on a real tongue so I couldn't finish it. Oysters were sweet but not sure if it's worth $34 for half dozen. read more
Tried a place that we heard of, but never tried before, Ton Shou. It's located in China town. We came for an early dinner, about 445pm. We found parking out front, and was promptly seated. So, my tip is to come early or during off times, because there were only 2 other tables occupied when we arrived, when we left at about 545pm, the restaurant was packed! Apparently, this place is popular, and I can see why! This place is known for their tonkatsu, so I ordered the katsudon, the other entree ordered was an unagidon. Patience. They make their food to order and waiting is worth it! For the price, the portions are very fair! You get your own pot of steamed rice, some side dishes, and miso soup. Both of the entree were really good, and the katsu was super thick! Overall, the meal was great, and can't wait to return and try more items! read more

Tonshou Las Vegas has the amazing ratings it does for a reason! The food was incredibly authentic and absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the Wagyu Sunrise Burger, while my daughter and I shared the Chicken Katsu. We also split the Crispy Tuna and Shrimp Lollipop appetizers, and every single dish was outstanding. To top it all off, our server, Leah, provided exceptional service and made the experience even better. From the food to the atmosphere and service, everything was fantastic. We'll definitely be back! read more

I made a return visit to Ton Shou Katsu & Izakaya, located in Chinatown at The Center at Spring Mountain near Wynn. It's nice they open late! Inside is cozy and lively with good seating for a table and by the bar. Music is awesome! They have a great playlist by Bob Moses, the songs are fantastic, fun vibe, and relaxing atmosphere. Menu offers a nice selection of starter, carpaccio, oyster, Katsu, donburi, sando, udon and ramen, as well as sashimi, mikizushi roll, special roll, nigiri, chef's special, grill, and skewers. For refreshments, they have highball, hot sake, flavored sake, nigori, premium Japanese beer, red wine, white wine, Japanese soda, Japanese iced tea, hot tea, soft drink, and juice. I ordered Kabocha Katsu Bite ($11), tasty and very good! It's crispy breaded Kabocha squash bites, lightly fried and served golden with tartare sauce. Also tried Tonshou Crunch Roll ($19), it's chef's special sushi roll, inside has black tiger shrimp tempura with tamago, kani stick, ginger, cabbage, pickled radish, outside has panko crunch, served with sando and katsu sauce. For dessert, you can ask what's available. It's not listed on the menu but they have mochi, cheesecake, and ice cream. I chose Matcha Green Tea Cheesecake ($8), it's imported from Japan, plated with powdered sugar and rich chocolate drizzle. Also had Ube ice cream ($2.95), which nicely pairs with Matcha Green Tea Cheesecake, ice cream is velvety smooth, has a lovely sweetness, and fantastic Ube flavor, so YUM! Service from Leah and Kevin is very kind, welcoming, courteous, attentive, helpful, and friendly! read more
Every single thing I ordered was good here - literally! The katsu was super crispy on the outside - it was still crunchy even after 15 minutes! The tempura cold soba was brilliant with a hint of vinegar. The cheese katsu was thick and fulfilling. And I had to admit they got the best tamago nigiri here. Highly recommended. read more
Came in with a group of friends for my friend's birthday party on a Friday night. We were the loud group in the back (sorry! LOL). This restaurant is stunning and located on Spring Mountain. If you're getting there a bit later in the evening, especially on a Friday, be warned about parking. It can be a bit harder to find. So if you have a reservation, just make sure to take that into consideration with your timing. Leah was our server and she was outstanding. Not once getting annoyed with how ridiculous we were. We all decided to order a bunch of things and split them. This menu is absolutely incredible so you really can't go wrong with anything here. It's now my third time eating here! From what I had was the edamame, which I ate entirely by myself haha. I also had the avocado crispy rice. SOOO damn good. I was so sad I couldn't have any of the sushi (pregnant...) but I have had it before and it's literally so good. The bluefin is my favorite. I split a couple things with my sister in law and my friend. We got the katsu ramen, soooo good. And then also the japanese wagyu cheeseburger. Everyone at the table ended up ordering that and they were all blown away. Thank god, cuz I really hyped it up haha. It was delicious!! Seriously if I could eat here multiple times a week, I would. Definitely becoming one of my favorite spots and I can't wait to come back after the baby and have some darn good sushi!! read more

Nelson, our server, was amazing!!!!! He had great attention to detail in taking care of our party of 7. Someone dropped a piece of katsu on the floor and without asking he went and got a new one for us. Wonderful customer service The tonkatsu is very traditional Japanese and our Japanese friends shared it was authentic and made them feel at home. The katsu sauce they have with the sesame seeds is a wonderful addition. The portions are very big as well. Will definitely be back! I would definitely recommend this place to get an authentic katsu meal to my friends and family! 10/10 read more
We came for the first time with friends. The service was ok, the ambiance was cute but the restaurant was kinda small. I was a little disappointed on the food. We ordered a sushi roll (forgot the name) and shrimp katsu. I also ordered tea. The tea was not good. I was kinda surprised. The sushi was okay but for the price, I expected better. The ebi katsu came with rice and a soup. The soup I wasn't a big fan of. The ebi was the highlight of the meal. They were big and tasty. Overall, not sure if I'll come back but glad to try it out. read more

One of the best places to come to off the strip in Chinatown. Everything was so delicious! We started off with the Takoyaki and takowasabi! The takoyaki was so crispy and the flavors were perfect. If you're a fan of fresh wasabi, then get the Takowasabi! We also got the negi toro mikozushi, uni pasta, and the tonshou special! Honestly anything you get here, you can't go wrong. Today it stands as #31 out of the top 100 places to eat in the nation! read more

This restaurant is always packed, but that's the price of great food at a great value. We ordered a bit of everything--sashimi, ribeye, you name it--and every dish delivered. The attention to authenticity stood out too, right down to the iced tea, canned and imported straight from Japan. Excellent quality, excellent value--highly recommend. Restaurant has a nice decor, but there's only about 20 tables so get there early or make a reservation. read more

The server Leah was eager and attentive. I had the wagyu hamburger steak. Delicious. I also spoiled myself with the 9 piece sashimi plate. Excellent quality. Flavorful and well presented. My beverage was a Japanese whiskey mule. Tasty and cold. The place had a nice stylish minimalist design. Not too fancy or flashy. I'd say an excellent date location. On my list for the future at least. read more

Had no idea what the huge line was for in front of this place, but decided to try it out anyways; no regrets! Waited some time before they could seat us without reservations. They're known for their tonkatsu so I ordered their cheese tonkatsu, which was quite tasty alongside all the sides it came with. Very filling for the price point too. Service was pretty attentive as well. I did enjoy the ambiance of this spot too. I'd recommend, as I think this place is worth its hype. read more
I randomly came upon this restaurant as I was craving some chicken katsu. I'm so glad that I did! Everything was so delicious...from the chicken to the curry. I really enjoyed the miso soup as well. The workers were also friendly, and had really great customer service skills! read more

Great experience at Ton Shou! Jason and Lucy were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from start to finish. The food was excellent. The tempura was super crispy and stayed crispy, the miso soup was unique and delicious, and the katsu was perfectly crunchy on the outside while staying juicy inside. Great ambiance, great service, and great food. We'll definitely be back! read more

Found this in random for late dinner and glad we tried them. Food review does not include katsu or their sashimi. We ordered gyudon, ikayaki, and takoyaki. My gyudon comes with rice, soup, cabbage salad and some side dishes. It was very tasty. Ikayaki is grilled to perfection. Takoyaki is only a 3/5 though. Ambiance is typical Japanese dining style. Can be a little loud. Nice to have the screen divider. Service is good. Servers are attentive. Checking on us frequently and refill our water without having to ask. We are not into katsu but maybe will give them a try next time. read more
