"We’ve tried to dine in a few times, but it’s always quite crowded, so we usually opt for takeout. The pastrami and tamago sandwiches are fantastic—flavorful, well-balanced, and worth the hype. The strawberry dessert sandwich was not only beautiful but also delicious. Since everything is made to order, expect a bit of a wait—ours took about 15–20 minutes. Definitely a great spot if you’re craving a high-quality Japanese-style sandwich, just be prepared for the crowds!"

"Had a great time at this Japanese coffee shop and sandwicherie! Behind the bar, three Japanese staff work seamlessly together, serving everything from lattes to tasty sandwiches. The background playlist adds to the vibe, making it feel like a quick little escape to Japan right in the heart of the 6th. Special shoutout to the cheesecake and pastrami sandwich. It was a great break would love to go back."

"Amazing coffee, really loved it. We sat outside on the bar it was perfect. The cold brew tastes so rich and the cortado was the best I’ve had so far. We had the tandoori sando which was truly an 11/10. Would HIGHLY recommend."

"So good! Friendly service. Try their egg sandwich (Tamago)! Good quality coffee and pastries. They offer limited interior and exterior seating. Great spot for a quick lunch or to take a sandwich/pastries to go."
