It was a pleasant lunch experience dining at the restaurant, the staffs were friendly.
Decent selection and variety. Taste is what you’d expect of an Izakaya. Staff is helpful on sake recommendation.
It will be good if the serving or portion of dishes could be bigger.
very friendly staff with reasonable pricing. And the salad bar was excellent too.
Very nice food and good service! Quite disappointed that they ran out of sashimi though. And the staffs look busy all the time so our glass of water was never refilled... but still, doesn't really matter because the food were really good! I love the tsukune most! So soft and fragrant! I also really like the mentai rosti. Their potato shreds were not the soft kind you get at Marche but a bit... how do i put it? Fresh and crunchy? And the mentai sauce was just the right amount! Not too much to the point of overpowering the rosti and not too little that i don't taste the mentai. Will definately be back for more!!
They’re incredibly busy because the food is good. We ordered everything with mentaiko and a few of the dons. Because they’re so busy the waiter got the order wrong and gave us tuna don instead of salmon don. However, we stuck with the wrong order and it turned out great! The standard of food is consistently good regardless of what you order, apart from the cheese with honey and tomato which all of us found overpowering. Service is decent. Although they may not always get it right, they try very hard.
Excellent place to satisfy your mentaiko cravings with at least 5 dishes on the menu containing mentaiko. Servings seem slightly small but every dish was consistently good. The beef tendon was very well done, although reminded me more of the Chinese style of cooking tendon. Had two servings of mentaiko rosti between two people which was quite filling. The mentaiko sardines contained a generous portion of mentaiko. Overall, slightly pricey for the serving size but excellent food and would recommend if you’re willing to spend.
Really enjoyed the skewers at Skukuu! We had the wagyu, pork cheek, chicken thigh, bacon and leek and chicken heart which was memorable. We also had a go with some sides including the beef tongue, crispy chicken skin, liver, which were ok. Was just slightly upset that the udon came furnished only with an over cooked hard boiled egg and scallions, broth resembling Vietnamese pho. Perhaps we should try out other sides next time. Loved the skewers tho! Service was also extremely attentive.
Good foods & great lively atmosphere! We had the onigiri, sashimi platter, chef's skewer selections and grilled makerel to share among two. Sashimi was sweet, fresh and love the generous cut. Skewers were delicious especially the Tsukune, it was juicy and packed with flavours. The only downside was we found the sapporo draft beers were not as fresh and pungent. It was not bad but just not the best. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience, definitely a place we will return!
Service was slow, guess they were shorthanded. We were seated but menu was not passed to us. Service staff were just zooming past everyone and it was really hard to get their attention, and even if we did, they would ask us to wait. We eventually got the menus ourselves at the counter. Waited really long for the food to come, more than 1 hour and our dishes were not served completely including the potato salad which was supposed to be the appetizer. We got so tired of waiting that we cancelled 2 dishes. Food was ok. We had the buta don, spicy salmon don, aburi mackerel, rosti mentaiko but overall, I wouldn't visit again because it's just not worth the wait and money.
