I'm amazed to find a variety of new Japanese dishes.. not the common ones you find around town.. there's teppanyaki too.. with some entertainment show for the teppanyaki guests..

1. Cold Cha Soba with Sides
This dish was a standout! The cha soba and raw salmon stole the spotlight here. The soba had a distinct tea-like flavor that was subtle yet refreshing, while the salmon was incredibly fresh, silky, and perfectly paired with the noodles. The fried sides were a delightful bonus—2 tempura and 2 sweet potato slices, all perfectly crispy. The marinaded pickles and radish added a nice tangy contrast, rounding out the dish beautifully.
2. Teppanyaki Oysters
At RM58 for three pieces, I was hesitant, but this dish completely blew me away. The oysters were unbelievably fresh, and the smoky teppanyaki flavor paired with the savory lemon and sauce was perfection. The fish roe on top added a luxurious touch, bringing the flavors together in every bite. While I wouldn’t say it’s worth the price, the taste alone made it an unforgettable experience—absolutely 10/10!
3. Soft Shell Crab Curry Rice
This dish didn’t quite live up to the others. While the soft shell crab was fine, the portion was small, and the curry sauce felt bland and watery. I would have preferred a thicker, more flavorful curry to complement the rice, which was served in a much larger portion than needed. However, as the most budget-friendly dish of the night, it had its place. With some tweaks, it could easily shine brighter.
4. Service
The service was absolutely phenomenal! The staff went above and beyond to make the night memorable, especially since it was my friend’s birthday. When the birthday song played, they extended it just for our table, and even sang a traditional Malay song wishing an extra year of happiness. The cherry on top? EVERYONE joined in—even the chefs! It was such a lively and heartwarming moment that truly made the celebration feel special.

If you happen to dropby, I will recommend to try their sushi roll - mango salmon & salmon aburi…so yumm! Oh yes they are more on teppanyaki but not fancy that as they have other delicious meal as well

Having lunch here with family, they had lunch menu which minimum RM48 teppanyaki set that you can sit at the chief table
Personal preference: terriyaki Udon chicken Set
I quite like the fried Udon, taste alil bit sweet mix salty, taste quite special.
The set came with salmon salad(forgot to take pic), Fried Udon(pic5), fried bean sprouts(pic10), and some fruits.
If you had time during lunch can come here, required at least one hour to enjoy this meal, they will cook in front of you

Came here to enjoy our meal, we were impressed! We ordered a teppanyaki set so that we can get a seat at the Teppan to have the best experience! Reasonable set lunch choices with just the right portion size. If you are extremely hungry, it is not recommended that you choose teppan seat. You have to wait so long for food to be served.

Edamame(immature soybean) RM6 very nice, with some salt toppings🤣
Ordered Tempura Soba(pic 4 and 5), finish this already very full. Soba looks like rubberband, square shape.
California Roll and Salmon aburi roll taste really good. Paiseh didn’t take picture but can refer their menu from their website.
Temaki Set(pic6, 7) with 2 unagi, 2 softshell crab and 2 normal tamaki. Erm ok ok la
Ordered Creme Brulee(pic 8) and Enso Panna Cotta(pic 9), Panna cotta is matcha flavor.. it doesn’t suit my taste
Environment is quite comfortable. Big space aircon is cold, quite suitable for fren gathering

This is my first time visit with family & I'd rather unpleasant brunch experience.
Our dishes were either taste burnt or overly sweet. It was horrific.
I ordered Teppanyaki lunch salmon set cost MYR68, & here's my thoughts:
🐟 Salmon
It was perfectly cooked. Chef cooked the skin & fillet separately. The skin was crispy & salmon was just fine.
🍚 Garlic fried rice
It was burnt. It taste horribly bitter after few eating. The color of the fried rice is black instead of white yellowish. I couldn't taste the texture of the Japanese rice either. What a waste.
🌱 Stir fried sprouted bean
It was such disappointed the chef could screwed up such a simple veggie. It's burnt & taste bitterly.
🥬 Side salad
Just merely salad with kewpie & tuna mix dressing. It's okay, nothing wow.
🍲 miso soup
Just fine.
🍉 Fresh cut fruits
Just simple cut of fruits & tasteless.
🍲 Unagi chawan mushi
4 pieces of tiny unagi chunks with superb sweet chawan mushi.
🍣 California rolls
The most decent amongst the dishes.
🦪 Hotate Foie Gras sushi
Couldn't taste the foie gras nor natural sweetness of the scallops due to covered heavily by the sweet sauce.
🏔 Vodka sorbet
Just okay.
There are miminum requirements if want to sit at the Teppanyaki.
Service crews are attentive & polite. They accept QR pay for payments.
