Positive Points:

The wagyu beef melted in my mouth, so tender and flavorful.
Best yakiniku I’ve had in Osaka. The meat quality is top-notch.
Every bite was a revelation. The seasoning was perfect.
The chef’s special cut was beyond delicious.
Fantastic taste, and well worth the price.
The portions for each order are very generous. The ribeye steak was outstanding, with each piece thick enough to satisfy a whole person. That night, every customer even received a complimentary special steak.
The setting is very comfortable and stylish.
The staff were incredibly attentive and polite.
The best part was Ryoto; his English was excellent, making the customers feel very comfortable. The food was fantastic, with high-quality meat and great sauces to complement it.
The prices are reasonable, and the quality of the food is also very high.
Great service, they made us feel very welcome.

Negative Points:

The meat was too fatty for my liking.
Most of the beef was quite fatty, leaving a greasy taste in the mouth with no beef flavor, except for the tongue, which was better.
Although the staff's service was satisfactory, I felt pressured to leave a positive review on Google and mention specific staff members by name. This made me question the authenticity of other reviews.
The prices are too high for the quality of beef provided, which is below average. Even with the staff's assistance, I couldn't find any of the top-grade Wagyu mentioned in other reviews, and most of the beef was tough and difficult to chew.
After 11 PM, they only accept à la carte orders, and you can no longer enjoy the all-you-can-eat option.
Some staff members were rude.
Some visitors mentioned the remaining time for dining on tablet was wrong, they said the issue with honesty and making the experiences was very poor.
They don't serve single guest.
Too noisy during peak hours.
