" Everything about Daichan was delightful! We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. The fish soup was spot on, and I loved their vibrant decor. Although the servings were generous, some dishes could have been more flavorful. That said, I’m excited to try more menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such a delightful experience at Daichan yesterday! The menu had so many items to choose from, and I decided to go for the chicken katsu curry. It was honestly one of the best I've had! The flavors were rich, and the portions were generous. I also appreciated the welcoming atmosphere and decor that made the dining experience enjoyable. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Japanese food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Daichan may be small, but it's bursting with flavor and character! The house sake paired perfectly with my broiled mackerel. However, we had to wait a while for our food to arrive during peak hours, which was a bit frustrating. But the wait staff was attentive and made the experience enjoyable overall. A lovely place to visit with friends. " (*Curated Review*)
