Reviews
Authentic taste and kind of comforting home-made food. The grilled eel (with white rice and hot soup) are the special thing here, I guess so.
My family and i settled on this restaurant because we were ravenous and all the restaurants were packed like sardines. This restaurant however was strangely not too crowded and were able to get seats as soon as we entered. There were about two tables free, so not that it was completely empty but it was definitely a lot less crowded than the rest. The menu items were simple, but i was content with the food options. The portions were generous and the price was reasonable. My family and i left with happy tummies as we felt that the meal was filling. Attitude of the staff weren’t as good however. They were impatient and slow, could be that they were short staffed but they didn’t seem too keen to serve us. Not very inviting atmosphere. Seats were comfortable tho. Would definitely come back for the food.
