Wagyu Teriyaki Smash Burger
Our Smash Burger is next-level!
We start with rich, buttery A5 Wagyu beef, seared to perfection and layered with our housemade sweet umami teriyaki and Taka’s secret sauce for an unforgettable flavor experience.
It’s all tucked into a soft brioche bun—just enough to hold it together without taking the spotlight off the beef.
Want a little something extra?
Add a side of sweet potato fries, seasoned with Japanese peppers and sea salt, or make it a combo with a drink!
Ramen
Our Ramen starts with a comforting, rich soy chicken and pork broth served hot to soothe the soul. Then, we add melt-in-your-mouth chashu pork to the silky noodles for an amazing depth of flavor. The perfectly soft-boiled egg is the perfect finishing touch that makes this extra indulgent. Our ramen is a favorite for both spice lovers and those who prefer something a little milder.
Salmon Burger
Our Salmon Burger is truly one of a kind.
Made in-house with fresh, sushi-grade salmon and finely chopped white onion, then marinated in savory miso for deep, umami flavor.
It’s panko-fried to crispy perfection, then layered with tonkatsu sauce, our housemade wasabi tartar, and mixed greens to balance the richness.
Served on a soft brioche bun, it’s a flavor-packed experience you won’t find anywhere else.
Buddha Bowl
The Buddha Bowl has the perfect balance of textures and flavors! The spicy tuna and creamy avocado are such a winning combo, and the crunch from the tempura shrimp adds a fun contrast. The burst of masago, kani kama, and seaweed salad bring that delightful umami, while the rice serves as the perfect base to tie it all together. It’s like a little bit of everything that’s satisfying in a single bowl! It’s a great dish for anyone who wants a little variety!
Chicken Katsu Sando
The Chicken Katsu Sando is absolutely mouthwatering! We start with a crispy, panko-fried white meat cutlet then smear on our housemade wasabi tartar sauce to add the perfect balance of crunch and creaminess. Taka’s secret sauce adds an extra layer of flavor that takes it to the next level. And of course, the brioche bun is the ideal choice to hold all those ingredients together with just the right amount of sweetness. It’s like a fusion of comfort and boldness in every bite. Great for those who are fans of the classic Katsu style but with a unique twist!
Bento Box
The Bento Box is the ultimate feast for anyone craving variety! It has a little bit of everything that is great about Japanese cuisine—rich miso soup to start, followed by crispy sesame chicken and tempura shrimp & vegetables, which provide that perfect mix of crunch and tenderness. The crispy rice spicy tuna adds that bold, flavorful twist and the ginger salad offers a refreshing contrast to balance out all those rich flavors. Choosing between the California, crunchy, or spicy tuna roll lets you customize your experience. It’s a well-rounded meal that brings together all the best elements in one box!
Cold Sesame Ramen
Our Cold Sesame Ramen is a refreshing and flavorful dish, especially with the sesame dressing tying everything together. It has the perfect balance of textures—crunchy cucumber, juicy cherry tomatoes, and the richness of a marinated hard-boiled egg. Slices of Chashu pork add that savory depth, making it hearty yet light enough for a warm day. It’s a favorite of Nicole’s from Japan, so you know it has to be good! It is the perfect dish for those looking for something light, refreshing, and still totally satisfying.
3 Hand Roll Set
The 3 Hand Roll Set is a great idea for anyone who wants to sample a little bit of everything without committing to a full roll. You’ve got the creamy, comforting California hand roll, the crunchy texture of the Crunchy hand roll, and the bold, flavorful Spicy Tuna hand roll. It’s a perfect combination of classic favorites and a little bit of heat! The hand rolls also have that fun, grab-and-go appeal that makes them super satisfying, whether as a quick snack or part of a larger meal!
