"A very good surprise at Akihabara Electric Town. We found this restaurant when walking and looking at the magic of all shopping and we decided immediately that this would be the spot for the lunch, and we were totally right. We have to order the food in a machine (nice experience) and after that was everything so quick. The tempura was so tasty and the cold udon a nice surprise. Regarding the price was very nice for the portion of food that we have to eat. We loved this experience."

"Tasty tempura chain that makes ordering very easy through a tablet. Batter was a little thick for my liking but soba came out really nice. Very satisfying to eat on a hot day"
