  Visited here with some colleagues. The place is quite well hidden from the usual tourist trail, and is stuck in the bowels of the rather abandoned Palm Court shopping centre.
  Decor - The interior decor is pretty standard, with the usual Japanese carvings, paintings etc. The addition of a raised "floating floor" is a nice touch - although it is only for those who are used to eat while sitting cross legged on the floor. The place can be a little dark, as most of the furniture is dark wood.
  Food - I'm picky, and currently the food here is not bad, both in quality and value for money. Of course, it cannot compete with Yokoso at Rusty's, but it definitely beats Riki at Orchid Plaza hands down. I was rather disappointed in the sashimi platter, which of which 2 slices were what appeared to be cured mackerel (which I find to be an anomaly). I had the Teriyaki Eel set, and my colleagues ordered a variety of other set meals. They were not outstanding, and not complete failures. Overall I would give the food a 7/10 for taste, 8/10 for presentation, and 7/10 for value.
  Service - Attentive and friendly, enough said. No complaints there.
  Conclusion - I would return, if I had another work get-together during the week. Otherwise, I would brave the heat and inconvenience for Yokoso's at Rusty's Market during the weekend, to get my Japanese food fix.

  Great, well plated food. This place has true cutomer service and the option of sitting eating traditionally on a carpeted, elevated area on small cushions. Good drinks selection and vegetarian friendly.
