Cozy Japanese-leaning cafe-bar with onigiri focus, lovely vibe and vinyl, but inconsistent service and frequent menu shortages; good for a relaxed drink or snack, less reliable for full hot meals.

Frequent menu shortages and variable execution (soggy rice one visit, crisp tempura the next) combined with uneven service attention and notable waits prevent a higher grade. Best approached as a casual snack-and-sip spot rather than a planned meal, particularly during peak hours.
One caveat: Service can be slow with long waits to order or receive food during peaks
