"Oh la la~ bonjour moussuier", was the very first words I heard when I stepped into the establishment~

It made me felt like I was in Paris again, except there were too many Chinese people there, like as customers, not the staff.... It felt awkward…More »

I was here for the Yelp Eats Charity in 2011. We decided to have the set menu since it was easier for the waiter/kitchen and it was cheaper than the original menu as well.

A western modern twist to a tapa bar. One thing is that it really doesn't resemble Japanese. I like that about this place that it is different, and not seem so on the down low.

I actually like this place. I promised myself to at least come here after…More »
