Relatively pricey

This place has a really good choice and a nice clean interior - good place for a date. The food is expensive for what it is.

Excellent service, food and ambience

Was surprised that the place is fully vegan! Staff were extremely friendly and warm - loved the environment. We even went back again before we flew offšŸ˜„apart from Jap food they also have vegan cakes which were not crumbly. Their portions are just nice so that you can try a few dishes. The home made vegan mayo is on most dishes but no complains bc the food is so good! They even have different levels for the happy spicy noodle. A must try if you are in KL!

Delicious but slow and overbearing

The food here is excellent.
Everything is made fresh so it takes time and dishes are served whenever they are ready. It took over an hour for all of our food to come (only 4 dishes).
The service was overbearing - the waiter tried to 'up-sell' more dishes to us, and the most expensive dishes, on 4 separate occasions after we had ordered. It got awkward to say 'no thank you' 4 separate times!
It's fairly expensive - we had cucumber maki (6 small pieces), spices inari (2 pieces), fried udon and enoki fried rice for 33 RM including taxes and service.

Delicious sushi

Great food, lots of choice, good prices.

They weren't at all slow for us, different dishes arrived steadily over the course of 30-40 mins or so.

(Some details on price: we got two soups, four small dishes, a sharing platter of sushi for two, two desserts and three drinks for 130 ringit. We've eaten for a lot less here, but it's cheaper than the food in our hotel and a fraction of what we would pay back home in the uk.)

Incredible

We were so impressed with choice on offer, the freshness of the food, and the hospitality of the wait staff! The food was cooked to perfection, the flavours were amazing and the value for money was fantastic. It cost us the equivalent of Ā£10.50 for 4 dishes and 2 drinks (roughly 54 ringgit and our hotel are charging 21 ringgit for a can of Coke so that puts it into perspective). We are only in KL for 3 nights but we will definitely be returning!

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Fresh food delivered quickly , Amazing flavours!

Cons: We were too full for desert :(

I'm so impressed

This place is an impressive vegan paradise. I could order the whole menu, which is beautifully presented itself.

The dishes are so tasty, full of flavours and different textures. Whatever you order, you'll be impressed. I need to go back to try more. If you ordered this kind of food in UK or USA you'd pay a fortune..

The vegan cake from the dessert menu is light and small, do yourself a favour and don't skip it. Trust me.

Pros: Choice, so much choice , No onion, no garlic, Knowledgeable staff

Cons: None

Really good and fully vegan

Huge menu of yummy dishes, it's hard to decide! We had the pumpkin noodles, 8 pieces of sushi and 1 seaweed veggie roll (total 42 Rs), and it was very good. Nice place, friendly staff. Happy to see so many new vegan places opening in KL! šŸ˜Š

Fantastic Japanese

I was very excited to visit here having been to the one in Penang which is one of my favourite restaurants in the world. This one is very modern, clean and new so it didn't have the same character as the one in Penang that I've been to, however the food is just as good. I tried some spicy noodles, some sushi and a dessert. All of them were amazing.

Delicious food, inherently sexist service

My partner and I came here yesterday, and right off the bat we received the same sexist greeting and service we've received in so many restaurants the world over. I was instantly greeted with a "Hello Sir, welcome!" whilst my girlfriend was totally ignored. We sat, pondered the menu, and upon ordering my girlfriend was told that she shouldn't order what she desired as it was "far too much for her", and instead she may want to order the Miso soup. She took the waiters advice and whilst each dish was brought out with a "here's your food Sir" - every dish placed in front of me - we quickly realised that there was hardly enough for two people and regretted heeding the advice; as the kitchen was now closed we couldn't order anything more. At the end of the meal and before leaving, I again was the only one asked "how was the food Sir?"; "thank you so much Sir, come back Sir".

Whilst this may not seem like much, it its clearly indicative of the sexist world we live in and I despise seeing my wonderful partner completely ignored in this manner by ignorant, sexist patriarchs. Please take note of this and watch out for it the next time you're in a restaurant; not only does this occur in restaurants, but in all walks of life too. I feel ashamed to be male whenever this behavior occurs.

Being Vegan isn't only about food, to me it's about respect and equality of all life. If you choose to eat here and enjoy the lovely food, do so, but know you eat in an establishment that has no respect for women whatsoever, to the point they didn't even acknowledge her existence, speaking directly to me even when she clearly asked the question.

Food incredible, despicable and awkward service.

Pros: Gorgeous food , Best Sushi I've ever had, Value for money

Cons: Typical sexist service from all-male staff, Awkward service and forceful, Cold and unapproachable staff

People like you are the reason that vegans get a bad rep. I have eaten here as woman traveling by myself and I never saw anything but courtesy towards me and others. You are assuming a whole lot of things and I suggest you deal with your anger issues before accusing others of being "patriarchs".

Will make you love "Global Warming" ;-)

Remarkable service, flavours, and attention to detail! A must-visit place for sushi fans vegan and non-vegan alike, as well as for vegans whether sushi fans or not šŸ˜‰

We tried about 7 different types of sushiā€”each had a distinct and original flavour, and was served promptly. The server was very attentive to us and provided great recommendations.

Special prizes go to the seasonal set with mango and the crispy Global Warming creation (yup, this sushi kitchen will make you love "global warmingā€ šŸ˜…)! I didnā€™t expect to be possible to find vegan mayo in KL, but lo and behold, it _is_ possible, and not just that, but also in delicious combinations.

Pricing is low, especially or European standards, and considering theā€”often-extra-charged in Europeā€”eco friendliness of the place.

Didn't take any pictures as was too busy admiring the seven plates of sushi, and I advise you to do the same!

Pros: Fresh ingredients & original combinations, Cheap, esp. considering level of service & quality

Cons: There was no edamame when we arrived ;-)
