"I've been trying to eat from this restaurant for a long time and finally got the chance today. Every time I came to Sounkyo, the restaurant wasn't operating.
There's plenty of seating space available. We went just after they opened for lunch on a Wednesday and the place was empty.
Our food arrived quickly and was very good. There's free coffee available as well. Unfortunately they only accepted cash when we visited, but there are signs that say they accept all other payment types as well"

"Food was just ok... It may look closed but it's probably just a quiet day. We got a pizza which was tasty but was really oily!

The pastas were big --rich sauces but too much pasta for very little topping unfortunately."

Nicole

"We stayed a night at a hotel nearby and had dinner at this place. Food was average but the service was great as the whole restaurant was managed by just one guy. He took orders for the food and drinks, cooked them and served them to all the customers in the restaurant. One man show! 👏👏"
