The food was actually great, sashimi was nice, tempura was perfect however what disappointed me most was their hygiene problems.... I brought home some of the food I ordered as I couldn't finish, to find an insect and a spider inside it. The flavour was absolutely disgusting as I must've ate the insects body, i threw out the insect and continued to eat, (as I hate wasting food)  thinking that the rest were edible I found the same disgusting flavour, and found a headless spider. Eventually I threw out all of it fearing there's more of them... I just hope that they would improve their hygiene and that I won't find any problems like this when If I come back.. I'm not angry but sad because...

Shared some really tasty dishes last night including eel, wagu beef - mains, sashimi and tempura and salmon with scallop on top - all delicious.  Only downside was the fact the food arrived too quickly, especially the two hot dishes which meant our wagu beef was barely warm when we got around to eating it.  Seemed to all arrive in the wrong order. Next time would just order as we go to enjoy an evening out - the fried banana with berry and cream and green tea what a nice little end to the evening.  My friend was a bit cold as the door was open all night, so best to choose a table further inside if they are available.  Definitely go back though and will try their lunch men...

Great food, good service, and easy to find location. We came on a Sunday night, was easy to find parking at the back street. Sashimi was fresh, aburi sushi was simply too yummy, also had salmon hotpot and fried oyster. Happy stomach, all dishes were really yum and reasonably priced. Highly recommend, and will def come back again.

Hikaru has a real home-cooking feel, and the plain udon has a well-balanced, flavourful soup. The waitstaff are warm and friendly, and the food is reasonably priced.
