Really excellent food. The exterior is unassuming but you'll find a great authentic taste inside. There is a sushi bar, imported beers, hot sake, and everything else you would expect. On top of that they have a rotating specials menu with great desserts. Have your kids try their first Ramune (Japanese soda) here. And if you're feeling adventurous go for the Chef's omakase dinner. They even have had tempura fried ice cream, green tea and red bean flavored, for dessert some nights!Definitely try the takoyaki if you have never had it!
We chanced upon this place for lunch. We ended up ordering the bento box. The servers were friendly and gracious. The sashimi was fresh. My salmon was cooked right, tender and juicy. The sauce was not too sweet. I wish they gave a little more salad greens. My spicy tuna sushi was generous but the fish was a little to mushed up for my taste. My husband’s chicken teriyaki was tender and flavorful. They could improve on the batter of their tempura. There was something about the texture that was not what we weee used to for tempura. We enjoyed the green tea with toasted brown rice. I’d go back and give this place another try. After all, we only looked at Their lunch offerings.
Very enjoyable dinner here. The udon soup noodles with fish cakes was filling and simple. Ordered a sushi item not on the menu. The chef agreed to make it, but then decided he would not make it because he was not satisfied with the quality of his ingredients, which was a MAJOR plus to see the level of sushi chef professionalism that I'd only seen on TV shows. I appreciated the honesty. A nice, small cafe atmosphere. Check it out!
This is one of the best Sushi spots I have gone to. great staff and excellent food. If you want real wasabi they have it, the rolls are off the hook and the in general just a great place.
It has been quite a few years since we last visited, but we were glad we went back again. The food was excellent.
Great Sushi ! My son and I got into town late from SB. He insisted on Sushi. We didn't get our two seats at the bar for a full hour, but the service and food made it worth the wait. Our 4 rolls were absolutely delish ! The only female server worked so hard to make our experience a memorable one ! Thank you for a great mom and son experience !
Good sushi spot in Monterey. The Gyoza was delicious, love the pot stickers.Firecracker Roll- 4/5Mrs. Santa Roll- 4/5Sexy Roll- 4/5
The service here is impeccable. Everyone is friendly. Their entree titles are great. You have to try the Dragon Ball Z.
Small place but very busy. Fish was good and flavorful. Service was great! Will visit next time I'm in town.
Great food. I had the green goblin and the Mama Mia. Rolls were put together very well. Not to big to eat all at once. There were three of us and most tables were for 2 so we sat at the bar. The door was open the whole time and it was freezing but the meal was worth it!
