I've gotta be honest I don't know what really to expect coming into this place but armed with an offpeak discount, I decided to give out some random orders. The restaurant is at the outer part of the mall which is at Parkson side and when I was there, I thought that nobody seemed to be dining there. I walked in and it looked empty as hell and there's only one lone staff at the bar there to serve me. Turns out, I was at the smoking section of the restaurant, there were plenty of staff at the other part of the restaurant and considerable amount of patrons. The place just seemed like 2 different restaurants altogether. LOL. But then again, it was the smoking area and the bar area for drinking. I decided to stay at the smoking section. It's as if I had the whole restaurant to myself. LOL. There's literally nobody who would sit in that section, just me. Their menu had loads of Japanese dishes to choose from and it's giving me a headache to decide randomly on what to order. The drinks menu too were filled with quite a number of pages with most of it being alcoholic. Finally, I settled with the Toro Sashimi and the Wagyu Teppanyaki and instead of an alcoholic beverage, I decided to just have green tea.

The smoking area may be a quiet little place all to myself, but that's true for the staff as well. If ever there are staff around this area, they'll just be at the bar area preparing for drinks. The meal did took quite a wait for me and that's when I found out that they're serving the sashimi and the wagyu teppanyaki at the same time. I see. Interesting. But then again, this is a fine dining restaurant. Well, that's what I categorize it. The Wagyu Teppanyaki has some brown sauce which they're to pour it over and let it sizzle. Well, so much for medium rare. LOL. It got cooked a little more with the sauce. I started off with the Sashimi first. Though just 5 slices, it was mouthwateringly delicious. Damn. One piece of this tuna belly costs roughly RM10 each. LOL. But it was very, very lovely. The dish that was served it was chilled to maintain the goodness of this tuna belly. It was yummy to the max eating on it's own but I still dipped it in shoyu mixed with some wasabi which made it much nicer. LOL.

Then I started to try out the Wagyu Teppanyaki. OMG. I find the taste quite heavenly. Even though the Wagyu for this has a marbling score of 6-7, it's still nicer in my opinion when compared to Hacha Mecha's Wagyu that has a marbling score of 9. But then again, it may be the sauce taking over because for Hacha Mecha's, that's definitely a more pure form to eat where you can really taste the richness of the wagyu beef while in this instance, it's more of covered with the brown sauce that also gives out it's own flavors and drowns out a bit of the lovely wagyu taste. Anyway, though I was nervous at the beginning being the only person occupying the whole section of the restaurant, after eating such delicious food, it brought a smile to my face. But then again, with the pricing of these, it brings it back down to average. If it weren't for the offpeak deal I had, it would fare much worse. But it's definitely very nice to eat.

Total Wallet Damage:
RM168.50. Not bad. 15% off all the items but they charge 6% GST. The good thing about this place is that they don't even charge 10% service charge which was surprising. It's definitely cheap in my books with the offpeak deal.

Final Verdict:
7/10. Nice food, cheap with the offpeak deal though not applicable to their set. I believe their sets are also quite worth the deal.
