Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Really cool friendly place

Jan 2020 • none

Delicious gyozas and a huge selection of interesting beers. Very friendly staff. We went there with our 20 month old grand daughter and the staff were so good making her a bowl of rice with tofu.

Best Apre bar in town!

Jan 2020 • none

We were staying only a few doors away and found this little gem after our first day up the mountain. 3-5pm is happy hour with a beer and gyoza's. Best gyoza's we tried in town and lots of different craft beers, ciders etc. Japanese love their beer!! And make it well too :) Staff were amazing, everyone gave off such a great vibe. We went daily with our 11 and 13 year old kids and they loved it too.

Great selection of Japanese beers on draft and the gyozas

Feb 2020 • none

Went twice for the selection of beers and two ciders, 12 on tap in total. This is a bit of a tourist hang out and has good ambience. Staff are very friendly and laid back. The gyozas are pan fried and come very crisp and moreish, among the best I've had.

Great gyoza

Mar 2020 • family

Hard to remember that we were in Japan! Felt like I was in a Japanese style restaurant in Australia. Lots of Australians and other foreigners working and eating there. Not really the reason we came to Japan for, but with most other restaurants turning us away due to no dinner reservation & hungry kids, we decided to dine there. The atmosphere was nice, restaurant and bar clean & the gyoza very delicious-we ordered more!! Family friendly, noticed even a small play area for under 4’s my fussy kids found something on the menu to eat. They tried the gyoza and 2/3 liked it 👍 We would return there, but prefer a Japanese dining experience when in Japan.

This is a great bar to come to apres ski. They have happy hour between 3-5pm with a beer gyoza deal. The atmosphere is good .. buzzing with happy skiers. The menu looks good for lunch as well and they have board games for the kids to keep them entertained.

Feb 2022 • none

Great staff, food and beverage, space, functional WiFi, music, sports on the telly, and walking distance to slopes and onsen. Accommodation is reasonably-priced upstairs, making it an even shorter trip for those on site. Limited parking, but at the hub of the neighborhood. International/Japanese patrons make a great night of meeting new and old friends. Nozawa must do.

Amazing kimchi gyoza

Jan 2023 • family

Hung out here during a snowstorm and didn’t want to leave! Housemade gyoza with local flavours (Nozawana, kimchi and shizo as examples) paired perfectly with the craft beers from neighbouring regions. The place was packed at 6pm and got busier. Best to book ahead during peak season. Great food and good value for money.

From Ceiba and Daniel

Dec 2023 • family

Absolutely delicious, we had more and more and more. From ceiba 9 years old. This is the best gqoza I have ever tried. My favourite one was the Mexican gyoza. Do not leave without trying the dessert. The gyoza stuffed with banana with white chocolate in side and ice cream 😀😃😄

Apres Ski bar with dumplings

Feb 2023 • family

This was top on our list from our pre-trip planning to go for some dumplings for dinner. While the dumplings were good, they were also just dumplings. The place is basically a bar with dumplings and a few other dishes. Go with friends for drinks, top it off with some dumplings, but don’t go if your looking for a dinner restaurant as it’s not that.

Friendly staff, good gyoza and beer

Dec 2019 • none

Stopped in for an evening meal of gyoza. Very friendly staff. Good cosy atmosphere. In Nozawa to ski but unfortunately there was not snow at the time. Places like this made it a good holiday despite absence of snow.

Lovely food. Lovely staff.

Feb 2024 • couples

We sat at the bar and ate some lovely food. Not the best gyozas as the were a bit water filled which I haven’t experienced before but the atmosphere and the staff were lovely. Make sure you book in advance.
