" I had high expectations going in based on the reviews, and I wasn’t disappointed! The menu offered a variety of authentic Japanese dishes and the quality was outstanding. We ordered the seafood platter which showcased the freshness of the oysters superbly. The only hiccup was that the server seemed a bit overwhelmed, causing minor delays with our orders. However, the staff was friendly and eager to help. I’ll definitely return for another round of those oysters! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my partner to Dark Bullet for date night and it was a fantastic experience. The dim lighting and cozy interior set the perfect romantic atmosphere. We shared a platter of various oysters which were incredibly fresh and paired wonderfully with their seasonal sake. The ambiance was lively, yet we were able to have a quiet conversation. The wait for food was a little long, but our waitress was apologetic and very attentive throughout. Overall, I highly recommend it for a delightful evening with premium seafood and drinks! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely evening here! The service was prompt and friendly. I tried the fried chicken and it was surprisingly good! The atmosphere is cozy and laid-back, perfect for enjoying a quiet dinner. Only downside is that I wished the menu had more vegetarian options to choose from. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and will likely return to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Dark Bullet and I was amazed! The atmosphere is laid-back and perfect for a casual night out. The highlight was undoubtedly the oysters which were fresh and bursting with flavor. You must try their signature yuzu sauce. The bar staff was attentive without being intrusive, and their drink specials during happy hour were unbeatable. I’ll definitely be coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing spot! The food is super fresh and tasty, my friends and I had a delightful time enjoying a range of dishes. It was great to see a variety of sake options on the menu too. The only downside was minor space limitations, but it’s a cozy spot overall. Definitely coming back to share some more oysters soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" We decided to visit Dark Bullet for dinner after hearing great things. First off, the place doesn’t look like much from the street, but once you step inside, it’s a different story. The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the shrimp tempura and grilled oysters which were divine! The service staff was really friendly and attentive, even during the busy hours. On the downside, I felt the prices were slightly high for the portions served, but overall it was a solid choice in the city. I would recommend it but maybe opt for happy hour deals next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was curious about Dark Bullet after hearing positive reviews and I must say, they lived up to the hype! From the warm welcome we received to the amazing oysters and drinks, the entire experience was top-notch. The atmosphere was perfect for a relaxed night out but vibrant enough to feel exciting. This place has made it to my favorites list! " (*Curated Review*)
