" Visited Wa Dining Okan based on hype but left somewhat underwhelmed. The food was good, but I expected it to be better given their reputation. The ambiance is nice, and I did enjoy the yakitori. Overall a solid choice for Japanese food, though it might not have lived up to my lofty expectations. " (*Curated Review*)
