I ate here while traveling for work. It was a rough day at the office kind of day, and honestly those times are what beat you down the most. One of my favorite things in the world is a nice fried pork cutlet. It's not terribly fancy , but it always hits the spot . I found this place on Google and said " hey, this day can only go up from here". I stopped by and placed my order, the person that took my order was crazy kind and took my to go order, and told me my wait time. I ordered my pork cutlet and tempura, and waited about ten minutes before it was ready. It actually came out really quick. It smelled great as soon as it was handed to me. I got back to the hotel and started to dig in. Not before long, I found myself in the middle of a flashback to my travels in Japan. It reminded me of the meals I would have in the small towns outside of Osaka or Yokohama, eating my meals in the humdrum sounds of the traffic and trains. One of the few moments , I have ever felt peace in my life. I absolutely surprised this place was empty when I stopped by. The ingredients were fresh, the portions were large, and in my experience a fantastic value for the cost. This place is truly a gem, and should definitely have more love. My meal was awesome, and reminded a weary traveler of a moment of peace.

Best restaurant in town. Been my favorite for years. Never been able to find vegetable tempura as good and the kind here. Definitely give it a try. Always puts me in a good mood after eating here.

Fresh food, amazing service! Calamari is super fresh, the Tokyo Ramen is literally the best in Albemarle County! Will keep coming back again and again!

Quiet quality restaurant with a calming atmosphere and flavorful food.I came to try it for lunch in the middle of a busy day, and it was a lovely pause that I enjoyed with all my senses.I look forward to coming back with my family next time. Or just come by for a nice warm tea on my own.

I have been here several times now. The food is always delicious. The service is speedy and courteous. The ramen is scrumptious , my favorite is the Tokyo. I could eat the chicken tempura 3 times a day everyday. If you’re of age and like sweet drinks, get the plum wine. Overall 5/5!

Looks very unassuming, but the service was prompt, the restaurant was clean, and the food was seriously delicious. Would eat here repeatedly. Get the tempura, it's perfection
