Nice izakaya spot that seems underrated. Would recommend to all.
Tried their sushi and mocktails and they were not bad and decent.
Excellent service and good food. Surprising sake bottle deal. Will.come back again for sure!
Food is slightly on the pricier side but quality was good and fresh. Ordered beer tower but the beer seems diluted compared to ordering a pint.
Food portion was quite big but can a bit more salty.
The oysters and sashimi are fresh and delicious, but the seating is quite cramped, making it less suitable for big groups.
Kinda crowded due to kurma show. But overall nice food and friendly staff
Great find! cool izakaya tuck away at a corner. food was good with a huge array of drinks available.
I picked this place for my birthday dinner with my friend because the reviews on google were excellent. We enjoyed the food but unfortunately the service from one waiter wasn't good. I asked my friend if she was okay sitting outside due to heavy rain last night. Unfortunately, the waiter came in front of my friend and criticised me for asking the question. He also spoke in Tamil in front of me, asking where we are from. I asked for extra wasabi, and he said it's $5 for wasabi smiling at me. I did find his attitude and behaviour was appalling, which ruined what was supposed to be a special night with my friend. I would still give a good review for everything else. Unfortunately I won't be returning to this restaurant after that experience..:(
Sushi was not bad but the don was average only
Good food and nice view, recommended dining places with family.
tuna sashimi icey, maybe due to improper thawing before serving
Food was not bad and the staffs are quite attentive
The food was great, few selections though. What I enjoy the most was the show. The service was good. The atmosphere are superb, because we are seated outside.
They cannot cope with the number of people goin for the Kumar comedy. They should be prepared for the large crowd and serve small bites prior to the show.
Ambience is good, staffs are friendly, food were great too.
Flavorful and well seasoned yakitori with pls ty of choices. Liked the bar and music too!
Not spacious on seating arrangement especially when we want to order more food and drinks.
its a bit expensive but food was good, well done
cozy place at the riverside, great variety of food and drinks with reasonable prices
Honestly the food is super good. Not sure why it’s not too popular
food selection and quality were good and service is prompt.
Great food and ambience for a casual gathering. Will dine again 👍🏻
Location is nice along the river but the food quality and service was disappointing, and well below standard.
This place have a good location and vibe, good variety of japanese food and drinks but price a little bit high but still acceptable.
Wonderful and excellent dining experience! Food and service was great! Thick and freah cuts of sashimi, one of the best garlic fried rice and egg mentaiko which was served warm. A hidden gem which I would strongly recommend.
We were a little late that evening and we sat till closing time. Service was good. Experience was good.
Went on Wednesday night. Great singers and great food. Friendly staff too
The pork belly is something to go back for !
kitchen forgot our orders, waiting 45 mins for our appetizers is too much, we’ve asked several times for it and yet kitchen still didn’t make our dish. in addition, we weren’t allowed to cancel the order only after so many complaints. the food is great but this experience is unfortunately terrible.
Delicious food. Great service. Wonder place. Great music. Good price
Food was awesome. Service is great. Pricing is reasonable. 😊👍
Ok only experience. Food was decent but would not go back
Restaurant was located at a rather quiet corner. Food was not bad.
Nice Ambiance, tasty fresh Japanese cuisine, fast service. Enjoyed the cocktail too. Easy access from Clarke Quay mrt.
I enjoyed dining at ikigai. The staff was courteous and accommodating. It took some time for some of the food to arrive, but it was good. My friend and I went to dine and watch Kumar. All in all a good experience and I would definitely come back.
Great band and music and drinks and atmosphere, love it!
We arrived quite late at 8pm so we owned the whole restaurant. Surprisingly the food and drinks are so delicious. Our whole family enjoyed the food and the service from Ah Bao!
service and ambience was great. good quality and taste is awesome as well.
The food was delicious and the staff were friendly. Would definitely visit again
Good service and nice foods. Inside was a bit noisy, but outside was more comfortable and feel good. Price was a bit high but acceptable.
The restaurant staff took initiative to inform us about the kitchen waiting time and even suggested items that were "easier to prepare" in order to reduce turnaround time. Staff were pretty attentive despite the crowd and requests from diners.
Quite cooling to sit outside, but it gets a bit loud at night due to the live singing next door
Great friendly service and good drinks promo... Had a great time
Food is surprisingly good for a bar. Fish is fresh. And drinks are great too.
Held a work farewell and service was great. Food, drinks and music was good.
Food was generally tasty with some notes that could be improved upon. - The truffle udon had a wonderful truffle taste but the pinenuts felt stale and distracted me - Oysters at 50% felt like a steal and the accompanying sauce is unique and wonderful. I usually don’t add anything but lemon to my oysters but I had plenty of the sauce. - The grilled squid was impressive to look at and filling but taste wise not very striking - I loved the sasa mochi. Not too sweet and the custard filling balanced out the chewy exterior nicely
The food was amazing and the restaurant’s staff was really attentive n friendly in their service. We sat on the outside of the restaurant so we had a lovely view of the Riverbank while enjoying our dinner.
Second time here really like it will come again soon
I love the live band , food , ambience 👍🏻
