Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Hidden above the bustling streets of Nimmana Haeminda Road, this small, family-run Japanese rooftop restaurant has quietly earned a reputation as a hidden gem. Despite its central location in Nimman, it attracts a relaxed, leisurely crowd—a contrast to the busier establishments nearby. The combination of fresh sushi rolls, gyoza, and its elevated setting makes it a special discovery in a neighborhood more commonly known for its cafes and cocktail bars.

Visitors can expect a cozy atmosphere with few tables, which is why the restaurant fills up quickly despite its tranquil ambiance. The cuisine is Japanese-influenced, with regulars particularly praising the sushi rolls and gyoza. The view stretches across the rooftops and narrow streets of the Nimman district, and in the distance rises Doi Suthep mountain – not a sweeping city panorama, but a charming and truly pleasant vista, especially at sunset. Opinions on the prices were mixed; some guests felt the portions were a bit small for the price, but overall, the value for money is considered reasonable given the ambiance.

The restaurant opens daily at 5:45 PM and stays open until midnight. It's therefore ideal for an early dinner or a relaxing late-night drink. On weekends, it's recommended to arrive shortly after opening, as the limited number of tables can fill up quickly.
