Musashi IFSC Sushi & Cocktail Bar

This place is very in very lovely and cozy neighbourhood! We had a wonderful server who was so attentive, nice and fast! I picked their special sushi plate and it was amazing! Everything was fresh and delicious! Also the place was clean which was very important. It is very much suitable for any occasion, highly recommend it. Prices are average compared to any sushi restaurant.

Fast service Decent proportion Food is served hot Complimentary miso soup I had the Musashi cha han The taste of the meal fealt as if melting on the tounge Beef is soft and easy to chew The staff was present to interact with, was poured a new glass of water after finishing my current glass The atmosphere was nice and I can see it becoming better and more imersive when it's dark out. The weakest part of my time in the restaurant would be the bathroom for its lack of atmosphere but it's made up by the fact of how it's noticeably been cleaned throughly.

Had the Salmon Bento box during lunch and it was so well cooked! The gyozas were so crispy and delicious too! Will definitely be back to try more!

Tasy Yummy Food , just what was required. Extensive menu i would happily visit again to explore more

A good place to relax in a busy city. Fast service, delicious food.

The food was excellent, with delicious sushi and a good variety to choose from. The ramen is also highly recommended, especially the vegetarian option, which is quite rare for ramen dishes. Don’t miss the Banoffee Pie for dessert—it’s absolutely worth trying! While the prices are on the higher side, there is no service charge, and the staff were very friendly and professional. Overall, a fantastic dining experience!

Amazing place for sushi, very authentic! It’s really affordable for the portions, and the sushi is so tasty. The waitress was lovely, super sweet ! We told her it was our friends birthday and she gave us a slice of a chocolate cake with a candle on the house (it had ice cream on the side)- the sweetest gesture! And the cake was soooo good! I highly recommend this place, definitely going back !!

What a fantastic restaurant. Our group included people fussy when it comes to sushi and sashimi, to complete newbies to Japanese cuisine and I have to say, everybody left happy. This went beyond a meal and was a veritable experience instead. Could not find fault with a single thing, from drinks menu, starters, main courses, atmosphere and service. 5 stars all round and highly recommended.

Was a little hard to find with the Yelp directions but the restaurant is a great place for sushi lovers. Good selection of sake and beer and the rolls were excellent. Hoping to go back this week.

In Ireland on holiday and got in late so as a group we decided to order and pick up. The person taking order was very nice and patient. She answered questions and took our other even though it was 15 minutes before they closed. The food was all great and looked great also. I ordered the vegan spring rolls and the vegan tofu bento box. It was a nice portion to share. We were so hungry and it all looked so good that I forgot to take a picture. We will be here a few days so if I get a chance to go back, I definitely will.

In Ireland by myself for a night and wanted a good restaurant close to my hotel. I saw this place on yep, and I have to say the reviews are right! I ordered a spicy Ryan roll and musashi ramen. This ramen was honestly the best I have ever had! Choked full or grilled chicken, pork, friend tofu, shrimp, and an egg amazing! Kinda want another bowl Right now.

Yes I love japanese food... and Musashi is probably the best in Dublin in my opinion The one in the IFSC is big enought for groups (they have a 1st floor) and they also deliver The gyoza are perfect and I really love the Ebi Tempura Masago rolls as well Everybody is very helpfull and the place is nice Definetely, go!

Stuffed my face with yummy food from this nice Japanese restaurant in a great IFSC location. Freshly made food, a friendly server and a lovely interior that goes well with the theme. All food we tried was great. Miso soup, chicken ramen, squid tempura, vegetarian futomaki, yasai gyoza (veg gyoza) all were delicious. The yasai gyoza was so yummy that I had a second round even when I was full already. I couldn't stop eating! Loved it! Full marks to them! Glad I had to walk home after eating so much...

Musashi IFSC is my easily my favourite Japanese restaurant in Dublin - it boasts an elegant, spacious interior with really comfortable seating, excellent service, really friendly wait staff and serves incredibly fresh, beautifully presented food. In short, I am a fan in a major way! On any occasion when I have eaten here (and they have been numerous) I have been blown away by the food - their sushi, sashimi, noodle and rice dishes are superb and are great value in comparison to some of the other Japanese eateries in the city. I have to give a special shout out to their gyoza though - they are earth-shatteringly delicious and I don't think I've ever been able to bypass them on the menu when eating here. The pork and prawn varieties are especially scrumptious - that such inconspicuous, delicately dainty, beige parcels are harbingers of flavour on such an epic scale, is a culinary epiphany that I can't help repeating on a fairly regular basis (I may have a slight gyoza addiction in case you hadn't noticed haha!) Musashi, I have so much love for you!!

I've been to this place easily two dozen times and have failed to give a review. That was remiss of me. I am not going to leave a big review for Musashi. I am just going to say that's it's my favorite restaurant in Dublin and if I could I'd give it more than five stars. It's cuisine matches anything in Japan (am shortly back from two weeks over there!!) Their lunch menus are amazing value, so filling and tasty. I'll be back many many more times too!!

I love Musashi and Capel street and me and my friend stumbled upon this place by total accident after trying J2 sushi which was fully booked. The menu is somewhat smaller than the Capel street branch, and the main thing I liked here was the sushi despite the more limited variety. We shared Ebi gyoza, Unagi and Tamago (egg) nigiri sushi x2, salmon sashimi, Tako Sunomono salad and edamame, all of which were pretty good. I loved the salmon sashimi a lot, and the sunomono salad was better than expected. I wouldn't say this restaurant is authentic in the slightest and nor does it stand out from other Japanese restaurants, but it makes an ok attempt at trying to mimic Japanese food in that they are one of the few places serve ramen in addition to a bunch of the usual sushi. The only thing was that the selection is much less, and they only have salmon or tuna in terms of sashimi. However, the rest of the menu was just takeaway style food like yakisoba/udon, fried rice and tempura which was kind of a let down as I expected a few more healthy items on the menu besides just the sushi at a Japanese restaurant. A lot of the items were also practically the same, the only difference being whether it had meat, fish or was vegetarian. The prices are pretty high. We paid around 40 euro for the above which is expensive since we didn't order that much. The service was excellent and very efficient. Our food was quick to come and the staff were very polite, promptly clearing out each plate as soon as we finished the food on it. The atmosphere and location would probably be the main point about this restaurant. It's right near the quays and the Luas, the atmosphere was very lively on the Saturday night we came, and the decor is lovely. The place is also very spacious with two floors and plenty of seats, so usually reservations aren't that necessary. Overall: Ambience wins over the food here, but not bad in terms of quality. Food: 3/5 -doesn't stand out from the other hundred or so Japanese places in Dublin. Variety: 3/5 Price: A bit high Service: 5/5 Ambience: 5/5

Friday Feast! This is definitely the most food you can get for under €10 that still tastes absolutely brilliant! (Around the IFSC anyway) Vegetarian Bento Box today contains: Yasai Tempura Tofu katsu curry Chef Selection Sushi 2pcs Steamed Rice Vegetarian Miso Soup All for 9.95, I'm so glad I discovered that sushi isn't all about raw fish :)

So there are two Musashi restaurants in Dublin. The first visit was in the city center and it was a disaster. Read my review here: http://www.yelp.com/biz/musashi-dublin-2?hrid=X8Kljvg5_nc-e7kcBa3ZkA It seems that Musashi has redeemed themselves here. This time Jon Jon was allowed to stay. My family came to visit me and we had a wonderful evening. Food is amazing, we had rice with Tofu and avocado sushi. Everything was really fresh and healthy. The guiozas were truly the best item on the menu. Atmosphere is relaxed and seems romantic yet also designed well for a group. Manager heard my story with first Musashi and apologized deeply.

I was simply impressed! The first time I ate at Musashi was when it opened in 2014, I had lunch there and I wasn't impressed. My friends and I decided to try it out and I enjoyed the experience. The menu is extensive, too many good options to try. I ordered dumplings for starters and it was delicious! Followed with a fried rice dish. I ordered the house red wine which was nice and affordable. The manager asked us to move to make way for a bigger group and offered us free dessert to compensate. All in all great experience, good food, friendly staff and definitely going back.

And here is another gem in Dublin! A bit away from your usual social life part of the city, at the IFSC is Musashi. I have visited a few of the sushi restaurants in Dublin, and this restaurant is in my top three. Firstly I loved the ambience: very relaxed and spacious. Secondly the service: I found it was impeccable. It was quite attentive yet not overwhelming; I found it informal enough, and pretty much what I would imagine the Japanese culture to be, very discreet and yet friendly. Last but not least, the food! I do not consider myself an expert in Japanese/oriental food by any means, but to me, the food tasted as good as it looked. It was an absolute pleasure for both the eye and the palate!

Some months ago when I found out that Musashi was opening here on Mayor Sq. I was absolutely thrilled. I waited for weeks for the opening date and now that they're here, I couldn't be happier. While you look at the menu you'll be greeted with a complimentary cup of green tea, and I've even saw them offer it to people waiting for their take way orders, which is a lovely gesture towards their clients. The menu is extensive, with sushi, tempuras, gyosas, noodle and grill plates. I'm yet to try something I didn't like. The portions are always plentiful. Some of my favourites here are the tuna steak, the yasai tempura and the sushi selections. For dessert there are a few ice cream scoop flavours for €1 each and some cake slices; the banoffee pie is generally a good choice. And as if the quality of the food wasn't enough, it's great value for money. The drinks list was recently updated and now they have a lot of wines on offer, alongside some beers, juices and the inescapable sake. The restaurant itself is still lacking something in terms of character, with its dim lights and smooth polished surfaces. But maybe it's just a matter of time until they start adding some more decorative details, as they grow older. The background music is usually bossa nova, easy going and not too loud. They're certainly a welcome addition to the IFSC, especially because they stay open serving food until late - my problem with some of the businesses around the area is that they close too early or don't even open at all during the weekend. Musashi - and to that matter also its Italian neighbour, Il Fornaio - proves that there's people around the IFSC willing to go out in the area if only there's something offering quality there. Whenever I feel like being pampered with some nice food without breaking the bank or going too far from home, this Musashi is where I end up.

Meh, should have gone for sushi! Was so disappointed with the lunchtime special. Bowl of chicken ramen, only came with two leaves of pak choi and a few mushrooms. Nothing else. Not even a soft boiled egg. The noodles were thin and tasted plus looked like they came out of one of those packets you just add water too. The chicken was a bit dry. Okay, it only cost 8.50, but I know some amazing ramens in town that only cost a tenner. I had total food envy of the tables beside us enjoying some lovely looking maki rolls. On a positive note: the edamame beans we shared were yummie, but it's hard to get that wrong.

I came here again for their bento box lunch special. Again I was the only person here as I went between lunch and dinner time at 4pm. Subsequently I can't review on the atmosphere! So I'll base my new review on the food alone. I've upgraded my recommendation for this place by 1 star. My food was steaming got this time and extremely tasty. I've included a photo of my bento box

We had the California, Salmon Avocado and Eel Avocado sushis, some Ebi Gyoza, and Edamame beans: it was quite nice but nothing out if this world either. The beans were unsalted (why, I ask you, why?!), which I think is a major faux-pas, but apart from that, the rest was nice. I particularly liked the eel, and I must say that everything was very fresh and well presented. Service was a bit slow: I waited 25 minutes for my take-away, which is too long given that the place was not busy, but I did get a cup of green tea during my wait. Oh and the brilliant free Yelp miso soup;-) (I do not enjoy miso soups but hey, you don't discard a nice Yelp reward: my friend helped me with it) Overall, if you are not too much of a Japanese food snob, this is a very decent place to go to and you'll enjoy the food.

Not very impressed. 10 minutes to just getting an acknowledgement at my table, 20 mins for order to come out - wrong, couldn't get server back to fix my order, no "how is it?", "need anything?", nothing..... then after waiting 10 mins to pay, I got up to leave and mysteriously a server appeared with my bill, which had the missing food from my order. Pretty sorry ass place. Edit: sushi is mediocre at best.

While this isn't the worst offender I've seen for overpriced sushi, it's pretty clear that you're paying for location and ambiance above most else. Pretty much any typical sushi item you order here will be between 3-5 euro more expensive than what you'd get at a different location, which becomes particularly rankling when you see that their portion sizes for sushi are extremely small. The first time I went there, the server pushed their soft shell crab roll- one of the three specialty rolls available (which is pretty disappointing itself- your choices in the sushi department here are pretty much confined to small basic rolls and chef selection nigiri). It is topped with masago, primarily I suspect to hide the fact that the roll is 75% rice, 20% tempura, and 5% anything that might have ever been in a crab. It is a 7.50 / 14.99 plate of rice and tempura batter. Considering this is the only specialty roll they offer outside of "vegetarian" and the wonderfully vague "seafood" rolls, not to mention how much the waiter was touting this roll is pretty shameful. The rice and fish quality is basic. Both times I've one here it's been served up with a cut of white fish that had a rank aftertaste, and the second time they served a shrimp nigiri where the single piece of shrimp meat was substituted for two of the sickliest, slimiest prawns imaginable lying limply on a bed of rice. I really should have just thrown it away because it made me feel physically nauseous for the rest of the meal. I'm really surprised that this place has gotten the reviews it has, because for what it's charging the quality here is seriously sub-par. While the staff is friendly and the atmosphere is nice, at the end of the day it is just a layer of masago there to keep you from realizing that there's not much quality content inside.

We went here yesterday for lunch and it was amazing! They do a great lunch menu from 12 - 5 which is cheaper than from the full menu. We got a sushi selection which had a variety of sushi and sashimi, it was delicious. I got the cha han which is a fried rice dish with chicken, beef, prawns, vegetables and a fried egg on top. It was delicious. One of our party got the tsatutsa chicken which came with steamed rice and it was delicious as well. They have an outdoor seating area which would be lovely during the summer, when the weather is nice. It is a bit of a walk out of town but the Capel Street branch is always mad busy so this is a great alternative option to go for! Definitely worth the walk out of town.

I cannot speak highly enough about Musashi IFSC. Its everything that wasn't perfect about Musashi Capel St. Spacious and feels high end but with the same low prices. Great food, its amazingly fresh. We had lots of tuna and salmon nigiri, gyoza and light crispy tempura. And an incredibly lovely Spanish house red for (Only €20) The entire meal including a bottle of wine was less than €60 and we ordered MORE than we were able to eat! The staff here are incredibly friendly, plesant and helpful. It will become my new go to sneaky date night restaurant!! Its a 5 minute walk from Connolly station so its not out of the way but i would happily travel to eat here!

Had a meal there last night with few friends. Staff were amazing! Food was quick and cooked to perfection! The atmosphere was lovely! Will definitely be back with everyone I know!! I'm vegan and menu was so versatile for any diet! Yummmmmmmmmy!

Love it!!!! I've now had Musashi as both home delivery and at the restaurant.. The food is great either way, but the restaurant is staffed by an incredibly attentive & friendly team and the service is very quick without feeling rushed at all! The fact that they are considerably cheaper than the local competitors is just the icing on the cake! Very happy and making this my new regular Japanese food stop!

This is, hands down, the nicest sushi I've ever had. Fresh and delicious, served by genuinely lovely staff, the food and service here never disappoint. And the prices are reasonable, too. Five stars - and I don't allocate those lightly!

Absolutely brilliant food. The service is quite nice and the atmosphere is amazing. You can eat really tasty food for less than 10€ and relax for a while.

This place never disappointed me. Cooking, nobody have time for this :-p. I can order some sushi instead ( tbh same price as you would like to cook yourself). Go for Ebi Tempura Masago and California and you have healthy light dinner for two.

One of two very good Japanese restaurants in the area (other being J2) and of course, the sister branch of the ever-popular flagship on Capel St. A much more spacious venue with 3x more seating so definitely easier to get a seat here. Service does not suffer and waiters are attentive with your meals arriving rather quickly, even with the lunch rush hour. Bento boxes, yakisoba and cha-han were enjoyed with relish - quality was reliably good. However (!!) I think J2 is edged ahead as my favourite, what with the waterside location, a more authentic feel and a more adventurous menu! But you can't go wrong with either =D

It was our first night in Dublin and we were staying across the street and needed food quick. We were recommended to come here for good food and what a treat it was. We started with the cod avocado roll and a glass of wine. It was a perfect start. We both had ramen for he main course and it was hot and delicious. While you have to ask for a fork, the service was on point. If you want authentic Japanese food this is your place. I was I was here longer so I could go back.

We eat sushi a lot in the states. We like to think we know good sushi. This place was, hands down, the best sushi experience we've ever had, from staff to presentation to food. The rolls were perfect, the tofu steaks were seared perfectly in a fantastic brown sauce with vegetables, served on a sizzling platter. The tempura was crisp and perfectly cooked and the sauce was delicious. I could go on, but I think you get the point. If you like sushi and are in Dublin, this is a must!

One of the best sushi place in town. Musashi Cha Han is so tasty Delicious!! (Wok Fried Rice) Delivery service : ) J'adore Musashi! ( IFSC and Capel Street)

I recently moved to Dublin, Ireland. I am constantly disappointed by the so-called Asian restaurants this area. I give two stars because despite the disappointing food, this place is very clean and modern. I like the ambience and I am satisfied with their service. Servers are very friendly and approachable. However, just because there is some rice and "exotic" vegetable or some raw seafood, it doesn't mean it's sushi. It takes years of practice to make a proper rice and when you make a roll it has to be done well. With that being said, the rolls I ordered were not wrapped correctly. It was just a combination between rice and something else. Ramen... Also a huge sigh. I am disappointed that it's not a Japanese place but a self-claimed Japanese place. This place would be good for people who don't know Asian food well.

We came upon here by chance - apparently they've only been open in this location for about a weeks time. They had a few lunch specials/early bird menu items to choose from (lunch special deals are available from 12pm to 5pm). My boyfriend and I both ordered off this menu - he chose the chicken ramen and I chose the Yaki Udon (stir fried udon noodles with veggies, chicken and prawns). The Chicken Ramen came with a HUGE piece of grilled chicken and veggies. The Yaki Udon was curried flavoured and it had loads of fresh veggies. I really enjoyed my meal. We also ordered a 8 piece unagi (eel) cucumber roll to share - yum! The ingredients are really fresh. Really nice server who took the time to chat and ask us to make and suggestions in case we see room for improvement. They do takeaway as well and told us will be doing delivery soon :)

The Musashi for me is one the best Japanesse restaurant in dublin. The tempura is the best in Dublin. I love the Ebi one! The califormia Roll is really good as well, for the main course the Musashi Cha Han is a must! The rate quality - price is excellent. The place is elegant and spacious, they have two floors Highly recommended

If you find yourself in the IFSC at dinner time, there are only a few options, a quick glance at Yelp showed this to be one of the better ones, so we decided to give it a shot! And I'm really rather glad we did, the set up reminds me of those european cities that get urban living, you know where apartments are built in clusters around a courtyard with a few low key bars and restaurants - the IFSC is probably the only place this is well done, Musashi is a comfortable space, and shortly after we arrived the lights dimmed down the few large family groups left and the restaurant took on an altogether more relaxed vibe. On being seated we where swiftly brought a green tea from the house, and the wonderfully attentive staff took great care of us, and where on hand swiftly anytime we needed anything. I had a vegetable cha han, and my friend had a noodle dish, but where really fresh and tasty and better than the larger chain offerings of Wagamama, if maybe a little bit below Yamoori, that said, Sushi seems to be a focus and I definitely had neighbour envy when some sushi appeared at the next table! I'm going to make a point of returning here to try some sushi, and maybe a lunchtime bento box!

Really great little Japanese restaurant. The seating is a bit tight, but the food is very good. You need to get the fresh salmon as they use very good quality fish. The curry and the yakisoba are also excellent. Good place.

Oh my the food in here is really good and if you can get in early you can get a great bento box deal. It is really good value and this place is usually pretty quite so it is a nice place to come in and chill and have a catch up with some mates. The portions are a good size, the food nice and hot and the flavours really good. I can't remember the name of the dish I ordered but it came with a fried egg on top and it was delicious!

The restaurant has a very nice vibe to it. The people are very friendly and willing to accommodate. The service isn't amazing as my server forgot to bring me my miso soup. However the food is not as great as other reviews claim it to be. I ordered the tuna avocado roll and asked if it could be made spicy, the server said yes. When the sushi arrived it was accompanied by spicy mayo which wasn't what I asked for or was informed I'll be receiving. The roll itself wasn't amazing or very good at all. To follow it up I ordered the noodle dish that was recommended by the server and it was extremely bland. With 5 different veggies, two different protein and the rice noodles I expected the dish to be exploding with flavored, very surprised and disappointed it wasn't. If you're new to town like I am, I wouldn't recommend this place. There are far better sushi places right around the corner or simply more flavorful options.

Awesome place, I have visited the restaurant about five times with friends and relatives and never left disappointed. The decor is simplistic but pleasant, music is soothing, service is polite and it doesn't take too long to get the food. The quality of food is superb in my opinion, the rice is of the smoothest texture, the fish is very fresh, portions are generous (especially my favourite gyozas! Thank you!). I have gone to all Yamamoris in Dublin multiple times, Wagamama in Cork, Yo in the Dublin centre and J2 in IFSC but Musashi is above them all, although I definitely like the other restaurants too and they have the quirks I enjoy, Musashi seems to hit everything in just the right way. I have also ordered online from them as they do delivery and not only takeaway (a feature missing from the other places I mentioned). The delivery time is within the hour although it did happen that it took as little as 15 minutes to deliver on some occasions, I presume, less busy days. But on busy ones, 30-50 minutes is expected. In terms of customer support for this service it is superb, they offer chat support which I have used to check on the order (moment of starvation ^^) and they gave an estimate of 10 minutes more, which was precisely correct. On one occasion they have delivered 2 instead of 3 miso soups, but the driver called back within 5 minutes (literally as I started chatting into support) and came back within 15 to bring the missing part of the order and another miso on top of that as apologies - an overall positive experience as well. To all the staff and managers of Musashi, thank you for delivering a great experience both in terms of taste and interactions with you. It is not so common these days and I truly appreciate it. )

This pace is fantastic; I've now been twice and was delighted on both occasions, once was a proper Friday night 8pm job, the other was midweek and only just 6- both times the restaurant was busy and had a nice chilled out atmosphere and the service is absolutely impeccable, The food is delicious, staff happy to make recommendations and for sushi really reasonably priced. A really excellent experience. You even get greeted at your table with green tea whilst you look at the menus, a nice touch.

We loved the food here! The bright red awnings out front make it look a little grungy, but don't be deceived. The food was great and the service was excellent. I highly recommend it!

Always good!..maybe not as good as Musashi Capel but the food is still top notch

Best Japanese food in Dublin! Very nice and friendly service. My favourite dish is the vegetable tempura.

It was my worst visit in this restaurant. We ordered sushi and sashimi platters. First of all they looked much different to what they usually were (we've been there a dozen times before) and instead of the usual fish we got 4 pieces of beef maki mixed with the other pieces instead! I don't eat meat and I found it really appalling! I nearly ate it before I realised what it was! It was raw beef wrapped around rice - at first I've mistaken it for tuna. I spat it out into the napkin. I complained to the waitress at the end but she obviously didn't get how horrifying this was for me. I don't go to a sushi place to be fed beef as somebody else wouldn't go to a steak joint to eat their raw fish and steamed carrots. Enough said. For me this was horror!

There was a bit of a wait so I highly recommend making a reservation (especially on a weekend). The chicken teriyaki was decent, though the chicken was a bit dry

This place is great. The food is delicious but it was the service that put me over the top and made we want to write a review. They were exceptionally attentive without being intrusive. A special place that I will return to when I'm back in Dublin.

Excellent Sushi, friendly staff which serves you green tea immediately when you sit. A nice selection of Japanese beers, too!

Worst chicken teriyaki ever! I came here on a cold day, hungry. When I ordered a dish from lunch menu, waiter asked if this is the one I want, pointing at the menu item. Just as if there was another dish under the same name. That should have been a warning sign. I also asked which sake he recommend. They had just one type. Well, OK. After a very brief while my dish arrived looking promising. But that was it. Dry and chewy at the same time, and barely warm. Maybe they save on microwave. I was so hungry that anything would do. I had lunch here twice before and was very happy with bento box, but after today I'm so disappointed. None of the stuff came to ask if everything is ok while I was eating. Just as if they knew. I'm pretty sure the chicken used to prepare this lousy excuse for Asian dish was simply old, laying there, God knows how long, waiting for me. Never again Musashi.

Very good restaurant. The food was excellent, and the service was very good too. I ordered sushi and sashimi and it was delicious. I liked also the relaxed atmosphere. I'll definitely come back.

This restaurant has a great atmosphere and very nice Japanese decor. The service is very good, the food is excellent at lunchtime anyways and great value too!! I definitely recommend checking this place out.

Great place. I sometimes can't decide whether to go for J2 or for Musashi. Musashi is definitely less expensive and the menu is bigger. They serve amazing main courses (tofu steak will be appreciated not only be vegetarians), however their makis might be a little bit better.
