<h2 class="titreeval" style="color: var(--primary-color);font-size: 20px">Japanese Authenticity Rating</h2>
<span class="noteauth"><b>6/10</b></span> <span>Overall, this establishment presents a mix of traditional and modern elements, with several harmonious Japanese touches. The baths, while interesting, do not seem exceptional, and the cuisine could have offered a more authentic experience. The atmosphere remains welcoming, but some interior spaces lack full immersion in the traditional style.</span>
