"Avoid the vegetable tempura if strictly vegan as it is fried in the same oil as fish and likely contains egg in the batter."
"Expect long wait times during peak meal hours, so arriving early is recommended."
"Enjoy the dashi broth served separately to customize the curry's flavor to your liking."
"Service staff are knowledgeable and friendly, often explaining dishes and dining customs in detail."
