Gift Tips

  • Try the sukiyaki for a classic hot pot experience, especially on a cold day.
  • Order the Miyazaki beef or A5 ribeye if you want a richer, more premium meal.
  • Ask about the sushi bar for a traditional counter-style experience with fresh, simply prepared fish.
  • Pair dinner with sake and explore the smaller cup selection for a more personal touch.
  • If you like comfort dishes, consider the shabu shabu, udon, or braised pork belly for a filling meal.
