I ordered Gyudon and I enjoyed it a lot, it tastes close to the one I've tried in Tokyo so I recommend this place. The food is on the pricier side though but they offer Zomato Gold deals for a number of dishes plus the food tastes authentic so it's a win all-around.
We had the chance to try this one out because of Zomato Gold. They have some dishes that are not included on the 1+1 like the bentos and the unagi dishes. We had the ff:
📌 Makanai Sashimidon ⭐⭐⭐⭐
A poke bowl with lots of sashimi (tuna, salmon and squid), fresh and really filling. Looks really photogenic too.
📌 Gyu-tendon ⭐⭐
Basic. Lacks flavor.
📌 Salmon Aburi Maki ⭐⭐⭐
Huge serving but nothing special about this either. The sauce on top doesn't have that much flavor too.
Service ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fast service.
Ambiance ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Will we go back? I guess maybe to try out other dishes.
A gem in McKinley I'm glad I discovered because of Zomato Gold. I can say that the generous serving of Salmon Belly really impressed me. It is perfectly cooked with the slice still fresh and juicy. Every bite I had of this salmon is a delight. I also liked the Gyudon. Rice is delicious and sticky as you would expect of a bowl of Japanese rice with egg yolk. This meal is very tasty and has the right kick of umami. The experience should have been perfect if it wasn't for the Okonomiyaki which was really dry. It was the first time I had Okonomiyaki this bad. It lacks the ingredients and flavor and was really dry and overcooked like a plain flour bread. I want to give this a try the next time it improves. Overall though, the experience was nice. All thanks to the nice staff and that perfect Salmon belly.
The best Japanese restaurant in Mckinley Hill at the moment.

Ramen good enough, thanks Zomato gold for 1 + 1 on food. Turn off was they charge an additional p50 when we asked for extra sesame seeds for our ramen.
Pretty good! Service was crazy fast! Got my food around 5 minutes after I ordered! Price isn't too expensive and we really got what we paid for!
It was my first time, and here's my thoughts
Food: I had the tonkotsu ramen and it immediately took the top spot of my ramen list, it had a certain taste that I couldn't explain, it's just so good. My girlfriend had the sushi bento, and it was done so well. The sea weeds, it's so good, both in the bento and the ramen.
Place: it's serene and not a lot of people. Although, if you have a car you might want to consider parking at venice since they only have two parking slots.
I'll definitely come back to this place. 👌
✅Humongous servings! Best to come here with an empty belly.
✅ Most things are good. I liked their Gyudon.
✅ Zomato Gold
❌ Many things were not available when we visited. Maybe because of the typhoon?
❌ Credit card terminal wasn’t working
❌ Bento boxes and sushi not part of Zomato promo
Food - 4/5
Recommended:
- Salmon teriyakidon (P430): Big cuts of salmon. Serving of rice is also big
- Unagidon (P695): the sauce on the unagi is really good. I just thought that the unagi is a bit thin.
- tamagoyaki: one of the best tamagoyaki we had
Go here to get legit Japanese food. Food is a bit pricey as usual for legit jap food but having zomato gold is really good deal.
Can I just say that this Japanese restaurant in Tuscany is really the place to be. As I've mentioned before, my love for Japanese food is never-ending so it took me to another gastronomic experience with the clean and healthy appeal of Japanese cuisine.
We came in for dinner after watching Spiderman Far From Home. Honestly, I think I enjoyed the dinner more than the movie LOL. Anyway, we took advantage of the zomato gold perks and got two orders of the Gyu-Tendon Donburi. It was served hot and it was a treat! Juicy thin-sliced beef and perfectly-fried shrimp on a bed of steaming rice. As an addition, we also got an order of their unagi maki and tekka maki. The tuna and the eel were fresh and the rice and nori were superb. There was not a trace of fishiness. Bonus treat was the miso soup which was really comforting. Domo-Arigato!
