Most Disliked
Some diners express concerns about wait times during peak hours, particularly on weekends when the restaurant sees heavy foot traffic. Others note that while the menu is extensive, it can be overwhelming to navigate without recommended pairings or guidance from staff. Certain patrons have mentioned that the pricing might lean towards the higher end for specific premium dishes, making it less accessible for casual dining outings. A few reviews indicate that occasionally, the heat level in some spicy dishes may not be accurate, leading to unexpected surprises for those sensitive to spice.

Tried their hotpot and bbq offer. I no longer need to go to Southampton to satisfy my hotpot cravings. Food is good, and service is brillant. Friendly and warm servers and owners. Would highly recommend this place.

Edit: This was a review of a previous named restaurant… new review of Mayfair pending :) Fantastic place for some authentic Japanese dining. Very friendly staff and fantastic service! The food was delicious and will definitely be going there again. You can tell this place is a fantastic-hidden gem and well worth a visit if you love Japanese food like myself. The decor of the place was lovely with traditional seating. Don’t worry, there is normal seating if the traditional seating isn’t for you. Appears to be a family run place, which is good for supporting local business. My photos show some of the food we ordered, unfortunately I did eat some before the photos… rookie mistake.

I have four Vegetarian dishes, aubergine, tofu, beans, noodles. They were amazing. Taste it good. The crowd eating there makes it clear that this is proper authentic place. It was a bit noisy since there was a big table with many people. But was amazing. I will go there again.
