"This restaurant used to have a system where diners would order at the window and receive a number for their food to be brought out. I’m not sure when they changed this, but now they serve at the tables without having proper waitstaff—only two people handle the cash register and make coffee. This has slowed down the service and overwhelmed the limited staff they have. My family tried to eat there today, but it took too long just to place our order. We decided to order from the window and take our food to Fort Greene Park instead. Unfortunately, our food took an eternity to arrive, and once we settled in the park, we discovered that one of the three items we ordered was missing. To make matters worse, we weren't given any utensils, which was surprising since we ordered an egg platter and a salad. I had to walk back to the restaurant, only to find out that the item had never been prepared. I chose to get a refund instead of waiting. I really hope the owners consider hiring proper waitstaff or return to the original ordering system, as the current setup just leads to chaos and slow service for everyone."

I have visited this restaurant many times in the past. The breakfast and lunch are delicious, and the staff is amazing! However, last week the service was very slow. I'm not sure if this is a common issue due to a staff shortage at many restaurants. Despite this, I still love this place! The outdoor seating area is lovely this time of year. View menu

Picked up brunch from here and it was just impeccable. The avocado toast, so simple yet so perfect, was delicious and I inhaled both pieces with the bacon I added. I also picked up a veggie breakfast for my cousin who loved it. There was also a rosewater lemonade that was divine! A great little neighborhood spot with fast service and simple, healthy, well made dishes.

Was waiting on someone for breakfast who is chronically late. That might be the understatement of the year. I didn’t want to full up on food since I was having breakfast later. The drip coffee is very good. But, the beef bone broth was so satisfying. It’s a cup. It was perfect for a cold day. It has turmeric, a hint of ginger, and herbs. It’s light and perfect to smooth the stomach. Truly pleasant and delicious. Might be a good soup fora hangover. The girl at the counter was so friendly. It’s a new place. I would suggest making this a local spit not to miss. I love finding these little places.

"When we called to reserve a table, no one informed us that there was a dining time limit of 1.5 hours. My friend wanted to invite more people to join us for dinner, but I was unsure if everyone would agree to the minimum charge of $60, including taxes and tips. I confirmed a reservation for 7 people during my second call, but ultimately, only 6 of us showed up. The table we were given was quite small, making it uncomfortable for six people, especially with the mandatory minimum spending of $60, as well as a 20% tip. For just two people, the minimum tip is 18%. I was confused about the dining time limit—was it two hours or 1.5? The party area was limited to just the backyard for additional seating. I was with friends who didn’t know the group well, and we arrived early at 3 PM, but we couldn’t wait until 6:30 PM. That’s why we ended up sitting at a separate table for two. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn’t seem to care and couldn’t arrange for us to be seated closer together. We had no choice in the matter. To make matters worse, the female waiter had a poor attitude. It felt like we were dining in a sidewalk market. She questioned another girl who served me ponzu sauce, apparently because I looked impatient when I saw her face. Her attitude only worsened after that. It seems like they need to train their employees better, as they seem unaware of how to provide good service. As for the food, it was just okay, typical of basic Japanese cuisine. There were too many restrictions! Customers are forced to adhere to the restaurant’s rules and limitations. I cannot recommend this place unless someone is specifically looking for a fast-food experience. In short, I don’t think I’ll be returning next time."
