An excellent selection of Japanese and other Asian cuisines: sashimi, sushi, a huge selection of rolls, salads, noodles and so on and so on. The portions are very large. The rolls are just huge, even too much, they have to be bitten off, which is wrong. A wide range of drinks - juices, smoothies, cocktails, spirits, including Japanese whiskey. The price tag is above the average in Almaty, but acceptable. Japanese people living in Almaty eat here, which is probably an indicator of the quality of the institution.

This place was pleasantly surprised — a real extravaganza of tastes! The freshest ingredients, delicious Japanese ramen and dim sum. Every dish we ordered exceeded expectations. The atmosphere is also at its best — you get the feeling that you are in the heart of a Japanese town. The only thing that can be improved is to refresh the interior a little, but this did not spoil the overall impression at all.
I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to try real, high-quality Japanese cuisine. We will definitely come back! Keep up the good work.

An institution with a pleasant atmosphere, a wide range of dishes. Previously, I tried only a few dishes and more often took them to take away and would have put 5, because the dishes I tried were very tasty - salmon, Sichuan meat, spring rolls, salad with crispy salmon, but when visiting the institution last time I was disappointed with the dish "squid in teriyaki sauce". The sauce was sweetened as it should be, but it was clearly over-salted and the salt clogged the taste of squid and vegetables. After this dish, the only desire was to drink, drink and drink. And the service was long, but if all the dishes were on top, then I would close my eyes to the speed of service. I will visit the institution again with pleasure, I hope next time the chefs will not let me down and it will be possible to put a well-deserved 5. I really want to try more dishes from the menu.

Some dishes take a little while to prepare, but they are always served fresh from the heat.

The best ramen, maybe even in the world... I tried Hokkaido beef ramen - it's just a bomb! Then I was looking for something similar in Moscow - no comparison! Because in Kazakhstan, it's the perfect meat. I doubt that there is such meat in Korea (North or South), so even the original Korean ramen is unlikely to compare with Kazakh ... (And this is not a joke, because the Vietnamese, for example, say that Pho Bo in Moscow is better than in Vietnam because of the better meat).

The service is poor, the waiter comes for a long time, there will be no consultation on the menu, the receptionist smells of icos and the persistent trail of these smelly socks stretches throughout the restaurant
It's also quite cool in the hall, the workers themselves are quite warmly dressed, partly in warm vests.
Update of the review: the guys broke the bottom in the service even further, lol. They found my insta and told me to delete the review. How many negative reviews were deleted after they were bribed? A goofy diner with the smell of rotten socks (oh, I mean, icos, it's okay for admins to walk in the gym with him, why am I)

The only drawback (but it's worth it) these are prices, of course. They are above average, probably because only fresh products are used

A peculiar restaurant. Cozy interior and delicious cuisine. I liked the miso soup and I also took the meat on the roaster, I liked everything. However, the prices are above average. It is better to go to lunch for lunch. There are complexes at this time. There is an interesting summer playground in the courtyard. The tables are closely spaced and noisy when fully seated.

We recommended visiting this place, as we really wanted to taste sushi and rolls of decent quality. The result exceeded expectations. I managed to order before 15:00 and got to the Bento lunches. As I was warned, it is unrealistic to eat at once. But I almost succeeded. There is something to compare it with, I lived in Vladivostok for a long time and ate sushi and rolls there, next to Japan. Thank you for the service, the beautiful surroundings and the presentation. I will recommend it to my friends and family already.

We often order delivery.
Oh! Ramen is just flying away! The portions are large and very tasty. Sushi is very tasty. One caveat is that the floors are very large. Eating out is not always convenient. The mouth should be opened very wide ;))
The interior... is authentic here. It resembles Japanese eateries.
I definitely recommend it.

We arrived an hour after the opening. There were places on the track, but they almost ran out.
We ordered two ramen and sea buckthorn tea. A good delicious hour, brought quickly. The ramen arrived 10 minutes later. The portion is large, the ingredients are high-quality and well cooked, the broth is very tasty, the noodles are good, although they are bought somewhere.
The staff is constantly busy. There is a button on each table to call the waiter, after pressing it they come quite quickly. They speak politely, consult well on the menu.
We will definitely come again.

Absolutely overrated place. The rolls are not bad, but their size is simply not adequate, I want to try several dishes, and not eat one portion of incredibly huge rolls. Ramen is terrible, beef with veins, meat is absolutely impossible to chew, it is hard, the noodles themselves are purchased.
Regarding the service, when calculating, we were asked if we liked everything, we explained that the ramen was terrible, the waitress did not answer anything, silently accepted the payment and left. The interior is pretty tired, there is no pleasant atmosphere that would be conducive to rest.
Considering all of the above, the price tag in the institution is simply cosmic for such a level, because having lunch at 30k you will not get any delicious food, good service, or a pleasant atmosphere.
The place is definitely not worth visiting even once
