You can order extra dishes or repeated servings at any time. The dishes come out as soon as they are prepared. To order repeats of your dishes / drinks, simply call out "Okawari Kudasai!" to our staff. If you are allergic to any food or if you are vegetarian, please ask our staff to advise you on your order.
