To Our Dear Customers,
This one is hard to write.
From May 4, 2026, we will be closing our doors for a little while — not because we’re saying goodbye, but because we are doing a big renovation that will take about 1.5 months.
Yes, it's a longer pause than usual. But we promise it will be worth it. We're not just painting the walls — we're reimagining the space. From the kitchen to the dining area, we want everything to feel warmer, cozier, and more welcoming for you.
We plan to reopen before July 2026. So please mark your calendars — by late June, we should be ready to welcome you back with open arms and maybe a few new surprises.
You are the reason we exist. Taking a break from serving you for at least 1.5 months will be the hardest part. But we will miss you every single day, and we will work hard to reopen as soon as we can.
During this period, we are pleased to recommend our other Teppanyaki restaurants on the Gold Coast. Both locations offer Teppanyaki along with a variety of other Japanese cuisine. You may wish to check their availability:
