    Our experience completely ruined our dinner plans for the night. When booking the reservation a day in advance, the restaurant asked us to send them a message if we were interested in ordering the omurice since the dish is limited. However, what they failed to mention and specify is that they only make 15 of these dishes per day. We booked our reservation and made the trip out there specifically for this dish, and when we arrived, the waitress apologized with a smile, saying they were sold out and that they have no such question asking about the omurice during the reservation, when in fact they did.

    This is my second visit to this restaurant. It’s just as delicious as it was 7 years ago. We all had the specialty pork chop which is great. My son got it on a tonkatsu don bowl with the egg and sauce . Also great. Best Katsu I’ve ever had.
