I love this restaurant. It's hard to find fully authentic Japanese food but this place does not disappoint. And what's even better is it's not just the food the whole restaurant displays Japanese culture. Everyone is exceptionally polite and professional. If you just love Japanese food come here. If you are homesick for Japan come here! If you want to try something new and delicious come here!! I don't live in Utah anymore but just visiting for the weekend and had to stop by again and the place is the same as always. If you guys ever consider expanding please consider Arizona I miss having local access.

We really enjoyed our meals here! The food was so flavorful and decently priced. I thought the menu was unique compared to other Japanese restaurants too. We plan on going back for sure in the future.

Delicious! Give this place a go at least once!!Authentic Japanese food by actual Japanese people! They’re SO nice too!Side note: Come here to practice your Japanese communication while you order! They’ll speak back!Honestly! Had such a great time! Will definitely be back to try out more of the menu!

The food was so good, I especially liked the spicy chicken! Entrees are great to share!

My fiance and I absolutely love coming here! We love the food, and the workers. We will continue to come here. We recommend this place to all of our friends and family's. Thank you for serving us and giving us a great experience everytime we come!

This place has such a good vibe to it. The hostess was such a sweet woman and treated us like family. I loved her. The food was delicious, all of it was hot, fresh and amazing. My new favorite Japanese spot.

What a delightful menu! So many things that I haven't tried yet, but have heard about. I had Katsu Don. My friends has a Don with Shredded Beef, Sushi with Tuna and Nigiri Unagi. Everything was absolutely delicious!!! The service was very prompt! And our server was so friendly! This was a 40minute drive for us! And we definitely plan to make the trip again!!

A must-go for Orem. One of the better Japanese restaurants in the state.

This is the place I take my friends all the time. Their sushi and entrees are amazing. One thing I ALWAYS get is their spicy chicken (not really spicy) and osambulgogi. It's way better to order an entree than a combo, PLEASE try one of the menus I suggested above! Their seafood stew is also great.
