Best Takoyaki in California!
My experience was fantastic! I had possibly the best Takoyaki I've ever found in California. The key is to eat it fresh and off the skillet; don't let it sit!

Disappointing Beef Texture
My experience at the restaurant involved trying the dashi-tsuyu onion beef with a soft-poached egg and scallions. Unfortunately, the beef was like chewing a rubber band, which was very disappointing. I'm not sure about other items.

Impressive Takeout Flavors and Quality
I ordered takeout from here and was super impressed with how well the food and flavors were kept. I enjoyed the classic gyudon with poached egg, which featured a light dashi broth, cuts of beef, green onions, caramelized onions, light seaweed, and of course a juicy poached egg. The pricing is fairly reasonable considering it's SF, and the quality of rice was notably good.
My friend REALLY enjoyed the unajyu / unagyu don!

Mixed Experience: Great Katsu, Poor Gyu Don
My experience at the restaurant was a mix of highs and lows. The Katsu was great! However, the gyu don with the pork meat was bad; it was just a bunch of slop.

Tough Tonkatsu Don
I ordered tonkatsu don on DoorDash. While the outside was crispy, the meat inside was incredibly hard, feeling like a rubber band.

Amazing Katsu, Even After Delivery!
I'm writing this review so I don't forget about this place. I'm amazed at how they managed to keep their katsu crispy throughout delivery. I highly recommend it!

Delicious Unadon and Great Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the lovely unadon, which is a delicious dish that can be served with udon or rice, and it also includes egg and beef. The fact that I've repetitively ordered this dish speaks volumes about how good it is.
The service was excellent, receiving a perfect score of 5. The food quality was also top-notch, rated 5 out of 5. The atmosphere was pleasant, scoring 4.
It was a great lunch experience for a solo diner.

Delicious Okonomiyaki Fries & Mini Donburi
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic, especially with the food! The Okonomiyaki fries were the bestttt, and the mini donburi was also good for the portion size. I will definitely try more stuff in the future.

Disappointing Beef Don Experience
My experience at the restaurant was largely disappointing, primarily due to the Beef Don. It was incredibly tight and hard to eat. I was surprised by how wet everything was, with the rice extremely soaked underneath the beef.
While other dishes might be better, the Beef Don is definitely not worth it.
