From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with the charm and comfort of this cozy cafe. The food is like classic homemade comfort food, and the meal sets and rice bowls are presented beautifully! My go-to is the Tuna Tataki Bowl with a matcha latte. You must give their ichigo (strawberry) daifuku a try too! Fresh and sweet strawberry wrapped in a red bean paste filling, all tucked into mochi. If you’re able to go in before 11:00AM, I highly recommend their morning set. My favourite Japanese breakfast in Vancouver

Absolute hidden gem in the neighborhood. This is a mom and pop shop, it's small, you walk in, order at the register and pay. They give you a number and bring your food to the table. We tried the all day combos: Tuna Tataki Bowl ($15) to make it a combo (+$3) - combo had the soup, vegetables and a small dessert muffin. Absolutely delicious! Tuna had spices, and it was the perfect about. Everything from the tuna to the side dishes was so good. The mochi muffin was "meh", but we couldn't pick the flavor we wanted, so a random dessert muffin. Pork Belly Teri Bowl ($15) also (+$3 for combo) - choice of white rice, 8 grain rice (+$2) or mixed greens (+$3). Gravy on the pork belly was very tasty. Pork Belly was very tender, just melts in the mouth. Also had drinks: Matcha Latte ($5) - great matcha taste Hojicha Latte ($5) - very strong hojicha taste as well. It was a little warm and air conditioning was not very strong. But they had the door opened, so it wasn't too stuffy. Customer service was great! Chef was doing the cooking and lady was taking the orders, but super nice couple. Although we thought it was a little pricey, it was worth it for such a good meal.
