I have loved it since the first time I used it back in 2013 when it was Sound Street. I'm grateful that I can still use karaoke now. I think having only one Live Dam Ai room is a bit few, but I look forward to continuing to use it. It's also helpful that there is Wi-Fi.
We visited as a group of seven, mainly in our 70s and 80s. Since it was a private reservation with a course meal, we were able to enjoy chatting to our heart's content, and everyone unanimously expressed their joy, saying, 'It was delicious' and 'We had a great time.'
The course meal, priced at 3,800 yen and including sashimi and dessert, featured a variety of flavors that kept us from getting bored. The highlight was the impressive live sashimi presentation of sea bream, which drew cheers from the group. Additionally, there was a beautifully arranged assortment that included kelp-cured and lightly boiled dishes.
Dessert was festive, with a tree-shaped cookie added since it was just before Christmas, which brightened our spirits.
The interior was simply and elegantly designed, providing a clean and comfortable atmosphere where we could truly relax. We are sincerely grateful for the delicious food and the wonderful time we spent there.

The finely shredded cabbage and moist ultra-thin noodles are distinctive, providing a rich texture to enjoy.
The pasta was delicious and I was satisfied, but there were a lot of customers, and perhaps because it was a busy day, there was an awkward feeling of awkwardness among the staff. The manager is scary. I'm sure there are a lot of things going on, but I hope the customers don't understand.
