Enter a world of culinary contrasts at this bustling eatery, celebrated for its consistently good sushi and praiseworthy fried rice. The interior, reminiscent of an aircraft hangar, could benefit from a refreshed atmosphere to match its more modern rivals, yet it ensures plenty of seating without the hassle of reservations. A diverse menu spans from a rich curry laksa—hailed as exemplary—to reliable comfort dishes like the classic chicken Katsu curry. Notable starters include the well-crafted tempura moriawase, and sashimi don's fresh salmon is particularly commendable. While the staff earn recognition for their friendly and fast service, there's room for refinement in order accuracy. This restaurant embraces takeout orders, favoring convenience while presenting a potential oversight for in-house diners.
