Customer Reviews
Best Izakaya in Liberdade area! We have ordered some starters to share: Kimpira gobo, shiitake batayaki, lebanira itame, shogayki. Super recomemended!
Must go if you really like real Japanese cuisine, No sushi, no sashimi!
Lugar pequeno e concorrido, chegue na hora que abrir porque não aceitam reservas. Não espere sushis, sashimis , lá é comida quente e sakês. Pedimos de entrada bolinhos de polvo , que de polvo tinha pouco. Tempurá, lamen e guioza corretos. Não é barato, se pedir sakê a conta sai salgada.
Comida excelente, atendimento muito bom. Lugar simples, mas com frequência de bom nível. Dependendo do dia e hora, há necessidade de esperar, mas com tempo aceitável.
