It was ok. The big disappointment was the smell of dirty, old oil that made our clothes STINK. Horrible while traveling.
The food was ok. Enjoyed the tofu salad and the kimchi. The pancake wasn’t bad but also not so flavorful - though most food in Frankfurt of all cuisines was bland. My friend had the chicken and liked it. Good crunch and sauce. The dumplings were nice. The ice cream was really good.
The waitress was very nice and the spot was cute, with open view to the chef - and, unfortunately, the smell.
Wish could say it was great and we understand why so popular, but we wouldn’t be likely to return.

I had spontaneously tried to stop by this place twice before, only to be told the whole evening was completely booked. This time, with having made a reservation, everything went smoothly. The place is very small with a max of 10 tables inside and some more outside on sunny, warm days. The food itself was very good, with the exception of the edamame, which, for some reason, was served frozen cold, and two of their menu drinks were "out".. tough luck for is maybe. The staff was friendly enough. Food was served freshly made and quickly enough. Portions are decent though a bit on the expensive side. We had two dishes and tow entrees with one drink each and walked away with a 80 euro bill. All in all, i will be back again to try different menu options and perhaps improve my impression on this place.
Friendly service. The okonomiyaki was tasty and the rice bowl was okay and tastes light and fresh, but lacked personality.
A detractor for us was the fast music, playing at 150 bpm, as this was too fast to relaxingly enjoy our meals.
There were no place to hang our winter coats, but they did offer a small box where we can put ou coats in and leave next to the table on the floor. See the photo.

It's totally worth your time to dine in here. The atmosphere also reminds you of the izakaya type bar to hang out with friends. I'm definitely gonna come back here. 😍 I recommend firstly book a table, because mostly it's fully booked
The Okonomiyaki tastes really good. I've tried the one with the Miso sauce and it was yum 😋 I preferred the beef better than the chicken but both were very delicious and tender. The portions are not big though.
I'm not sure what the name of the starter is, it was delicious with tofu and lotus roots.
The home made Yuzu drink tastes refreshing, you can order it hot or cold ans enjoy the tartness of Yuzu.
The staff are very friendly. I'd highly recommend to book before you show up. The restaurant is cozy and small and you might end up not getting a chair.
I wish they had a mix plate of appetizers or they could recommend us what we should get. The starter menu was written per Hand and if you are not familiar with japanese kitchen you might be a little lost coz I found it somehow confusing.
Stay tuned for the next review 🙂

FOOD & DRINKS
We tried some snacks and a few dishes. I had the Buta Don as my entrée which was okay. I was a bit disappointed with my dish to be honest. The Karaage and the Takoyaki on the other hand were good. My sister tried the okonomiyaki and allowed me to have a bite. I would say this is the main dish to go for.
SERVICE
Very friendly service.
ATMOSPHERE
Modern industrial look yet still cozy with a bit of Japanese flair. I really like it.
RATING
Even though I didn’t fully enjoy my dish, the overall experience was very nice. I would recommend this authentic restaurant to anyone who wants to try out Japanese cuisine. The Buta Don needs more oomph.

Delicious food! Quite pricey but still worth a visit. Staff is nice but very slow with service as they don’t have many employees. Indoor area is small and a bit cramped. Dorayaki with matcha ice cream was amazing, loved it the most!
Really good food and authentic! What makes me happy, is that they don't serve (like most of the Japanese restaurants) "Sushi", but Japanese pancakes, Takoyaki and other fun and delicious stuff. Also the music and ambiance is really nice.
