If you're planning to have dinner here, I'd advise you to come around 6.30pm or you'll have to wait for long queue before they can get you a table.
There are a few signature dishes that this restaurant offers, all looks great on the picture, looks yummy and tasty.

Shima Hokke Fish |
Shima Hokke fish is a grilled Japanese Hokke fish with silver lining on the skin. Served with the fish body sliced open and the skin facing downwards, it shows the golden color of the fully grilled fish. Sized around 25cm long and 15cm wide, it's really worth every cents you spent on this dish. What I particularly loved about this fish is the tenderness and softness. It's so soft that you'll feel it's melted in your mouth. However, do be careful with the little tiny but long fish bone when eating the fin. This is a must try if you consider to have lunch or dinner here.
Another dish that we order was the Tonkatsu set. It looks promising and yummy on the menu. Unfortunately my wife wasn't really satisfied with it. The tonkatsu contains about 20-25% of fat. So for you who love to have lots of pork fat, this will satisfy you. The rest of the set are rice, tofu, salad and the soup.

As I have mentioned, this is a truly authentic Japanese restaurant, hence be prepared to experience a truly Japanese culture here, like 90 degree bow when they greet guests. Another interesting one is that they do not provide spoon and fork. They only provide chop stick. So how to eat the soup? Well apparently they don't eat soup, they DRINK it. So yes, you bring the soup bowl up to you mouth and drink directly. Really an amazing experience.
With the authenticity and wide variety of food, they are priced quite reasonable. The sets are priced around S$12.90 each. I think it is considered cheap compared to other Japanese restaurant available.
