Excellent restaurant in a good central location in Newcastle. Menu includes the usual things like Teriyaki but lots of other interesting Japanese and Korean dishes. I opted for the Korean grilled squid which was excellent, perfectly cooked and a generous amount. Great value for money, great food and service.
Went around 3pm on a weekday. Was very quiet inside with only 2 tables of guests. Food was decent for the price. Lady did only manage to eat half of her dish, as there was a lot of rice. Will try this place again maybe in evening. Staff were mainly sat around at a table chatting and playing on phone since it was quiet.
Loved the Chicken Katsu Curry! The atmosphere inside feels like a high-end restaurant, and the friendly staff make the experience even better.
While the waiting time can be a bit long and despite being slightly pricy, the overall experience makes it absolutely worth it! The chicken and beef are halal which is wonderful. Been a few times, would recommend!

The restaurant is clean and visually appealing- really nicely decorated, you definitely can feel like you are in a higher end restaurant and it is a very pleasant experience simply just sitting at the table. When it comes to prices, the menu offers cheap and affordable options which is greatly appreciated as it can fit all budgets.
What caught my attention was the intriguing fact that this restaurant offers a split menu with Japanese and Korean food which is a nice option to have in Newcastle when you can't decide which cuisine you would rather enjoy that day.
Another reason this restaurant caught my attention was because they have Ja Jang Myun on their menu, which in my experience is a difficult find. Despite this fact, I have actually not ordered this meal during my visit and have instead ordered Yuk Gae Jang and a Tuna Temaki Roll which are both pictured in my photo.
The soup has stayed hot for very long and it made me fall behind when eating this dish so the company I had with me had to sit there waiting for me to finish- even so, I had to take the rest of the meal back home. The soup did taste nice, not as flavourful as I wanted it to be but the spiciness level was pleasant as it was not the type that you need to chug milk after. The temaki was also tasty and fresh but I feel like it could be more flavourful in some ways.
I have not come back yet to this restaurant despite the pleasant experience, however, writing this review has made me wonder why haven't I visited again? Unable to find a reason as to why I decided I definitely will be coming back soon to try the other dishes their menu has to offer and I am looking forward to it.
Enjoyed a lovely authentic lunch, compiled of traditional Japanese/Korean small plates, sushi and cocktails. The veg tempura was a comforting and delicious way to start, and the meat on the Korean wings fell off the bone, very nice (we went spicy). The slow cooked pork belly was not to my taste as the fat was not rendered down and the pork was rather chewy for something slow cooked, however the octopus takoyaki was a real treat! The Californian rolls were nice enough and had a form of roe encasing the outside which was a lovely touch. Finally the Asia daisy cocktail was light and refreshing, the perfect tipple to accompany the meal.
Food is legit and served beautifully ❤️ personally I love the avocado salmon and the sweet potato chips 😍 The place is great to hang out and located at the city centre
Really lovely little place, with an intriguing mix of Korean and Japanese dishes.
Great for simple sushi, or for the perfect bimbimbap if you're after something hearty on a Sunday.
Plenty of tables and room for walk-ins.
They did have a few items off menu due to freshness and stock concerns, but we're happy to substitute when required.
Recommended for a lazy Sunday lunch, or a weekday casual evening meal.
Nice location, with friendly staff. The sushi is always lovely, and the Bao Buns are my absolute favorite. The ramen is a bit hit or miss, the first time the broth was incredibly salty, the following time the broth was perfect but the piece of chicken was chewy and gristly. On more than one of my visits our drinks have been forgotten & we have had to ask for them after our food arrives.
Food was really, really good. Our waitress was lovely, it was however a match day and the noise in the restaurant was phenomenal and not helped by the background music. Interestingly they switched the music off once everyone left and it was really nice. I would definitely go back but never again on a match day

Nice place, friendly staff, delicious food, only the food was delayed a about 35 min, although there weren't many people, so I think if the place was busy, it would be more late, but overall I will come back to them to try the rest of the food.
