As compared to the ala carte buffet at HONJIN, I find that the variety here is so much more and definitely more appealing in terms of taste and presentation. I especially liked teh sashimi platter, which had salmon, tuna, sea bream, hamachi, octopus and squid. Thinking of it just makes my saliva drool again.haha!!
As for the other foods, such as the Tori Karaage, skewed chicken, maki sushi, tempura and Kagiage, they were quite tasty as well. However, the chawamushi was not as smooth as I would have liked it to be. The taste was there but not the texture of the egg as I had ate at several other Japanese restaurants.
In addition, the air-conditioning seems a bit weak and we did perspire slightly. Nevertheless, I think that this is a place for a good Japanese buffet and the price is quite reasonable as well with us paying $77 for two adults. So do give it a try and see for yourself.

Took a brisk walk and found that the condition of most of the furniture were still quite good and before delivering to you, the staff would polish off any unwanted stains to the best they can and also give it a new coat of paint if deemed necessary. Of course, some of these additional works may offset you a bit more, but sometimes they may throw it in for free as well. So just ask and you may get it.
In the end, I got myself a computer chair for 80 bucks, which normally could have cost at least 90 bucks elsewhere such as VHIVE and COURTS. So if you happen to be in the area, do drop by to just take a look. Who noes, you may find a god deal for yourself, just like i found mine.

WHen I went there at around late afternoon, not many customers were there. But the staff were not really that prompt in serving us. Nevertheless, they were friendly and gave some suggestions on what coffee were nice. So I ordered a Mexican iced coffee, which had Kahlua syrup in it. It had a nice taste and was served in a cute looking shoe-shaped glass. On the menu, saw that there were acouple more speciality coffee, which I may give a try in future.
Overall the coffee was nice, place was nicely done, but carparking could be the stumbling block for drivers. As for price wise, its reasonable and comparable to that of Starbucks and Coffee Bean

Me and my gf went in at around 6pm and got us a table near the entrance. First impression was that the place was quite small. Thus, for other Yebbers who wanna go there, do make a reservation if you aint gng there early to avoid waiting. As it was our first time there, we decided to try out the steak and ribs, which we think shld be nice. So we ordered the baby back ribs and the USDA strip (12oz slab). We also ordered the msuhroom and clam chowder soup and the steakhouse fries as side dish.
Before the dishes came, bread was served with thier in-house garlic spread and I must say that the bread was soft and fluffy and the spread was tasty, without too strong a garlic taste lingering on in your mouth.
The soup came and was fairly pleased with the amount of clams found in the soup. The mushroom soup was nice as well and was not too thick. As for the fries, they were chunky and served with a dash of spices (similar to the cajun fries served at Botak Jones). They were piping hot when served and crispy when bitten.
As for the main dishes, the slab of beef steak was quite juicy and succulent. We had ordered it to be medium cooked and some blood could be seen, yet did not taste too bloody. However, the exterior was slightly charred which affected the overall taste. Nevertheless, the steak was still quite good. As for the baby back ribs, they were nicely grilled and the meat came off easily from the bones, which was essential, to minimise the fiddling of the utensils by the customers to cut the meat.
And as other Yebbers had stated before, this place doesn't charge GST nor service charge. And given their attentive service by the staff, this was definitely a bonus. I would give it a thumbs up and would return for more in future

The restaurant, as we learnt from the waiter, was actually set up by the same boss of TAO (the eatery at Paradiz Centre). As such, the method of ordering food is the same, with the customer ordering a dish from the menu selected from each category namely cold dish, main dish, desserts,drinks and a couple more which I can't remember at this moment. In addition, for dinner, there is an additional starter.
Since it was our first time, we ordered different foods to try out. In the end we ordered beef tendons, chicken roulette, beed steak on a hot stone, mushroom soup,seafood bisque, sashimi platter, egg custard, drinks, hot warm chocolate with vanilla ice-cream and macha green tea puree.
The food was definitely tasteful and would light up your palate. The staff were also very friendly and would give you opinions on what to order and how to eat some of the food as well.
ONe thing to take note is that the price may be slightly steep, with dinner at 58.80 for one pax. But to me, I think it was money well spent.
All in all, the service was good and food was superb. In addition, the staff, after we paid our bill, showed us around and said that in future, we could place a reservation and a room (min 4 pax) could be catered for us and the decoration of the room was quite artistic as well. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends who wanna have a place with good ambience to eat and chat.
