Huge menu, small sit down eating 3 tables. Sushi we ate was tasty (unagi earth and fire roll) Wife had ramen and it was also good however we took to timeshare added fresh lime squeeze and was better.

All I can say is “Yum Yum” Super fresh, quick to serve, great service, hearty servings and reasonable pricing. I ordered the spicy burrito, as I never had a Japanese burrito. Its like a huge roll. ;) The tempura veggies were delish also! Highly recommended for takeout!

This is our go-to sushi takeout place! Not a great atmosphere to dine in but that's not our goal. We order because they have a three-roll special that is so cheap but so delicious and fresh. They even have a huge assortment of vegan rolls. Highly recommend!

Some of the best sushi I've ever had. The eel and shrimp were fantastic. Seems to be only one person in the kitchen so expect wait times but it's so worth it

Small yet cozy sushi restaurant. Our sushi was fresh and delicious and the server was super sweet and attentive with us! I'd definitely recommend this place.

Everything is house made and fresh! The wait time is long during the dinner rush but it just goes to show how good it is! They even have fresh house made ice-cream! It's a small place not really set up for big parties but it's the perfect spot to take a date night because the dining area is so cozy.

The food is really amazing but I just can’t get past a couple problems. The seating area is so small compared to the volume of sales they bring in, there are no bathrooms, it’s not handicap friendly, they don’t answer the phone to place an order, and the service is pretty bad. I placed a fairly large cash and carry out order at my last visit. The miso soup and soy sauce containers were poorly packaged and spilled into one of my sushi containers. One of the sushi rolls in the container was different from the one I ordered. The hostess was not friendly and very short with me even though I was really nice to her. I can understand if she was having a bad day because we all do but it’s no excuse for the way my food was thrown in the bag. Like I said, the food is great but I’m not sure I want to support a place like this. I recommend Sushi Bay up the street if you’re looking for good sushi, better service, and handicap accessibility. They’re a little pricier but it’s consistent.**Update** I did at least try to call to express my frustration with the owner but had to leave a message. The hostess said that Goichi (the owner) doesn’t accept phone calls during business hours because they are always very busy. This is really disappointing but not worth my time so I told her to just let him know I left a review.

This place is amazing. Yes, it is a small independent restaurant, family owned and run but they are great. We stopped by and it did not disappoint!!! Great food and service. Yes, if you go you will have to be patient because the waitress was busy but she was very nice. Food is amazing!

This place awsome! We had sushi and ramen, both were exquisite and the price was very modest. Their ramen noodles are next level and we really liked the pork and chicken broth. The sushi was also very fresh and delishious, we made the whole tray disapear in a couple minutes. I cant recomend enought

I don’t usually leave reviews but in our VERY short visit to this place, I felt the need. It’s a very small and awkward space, which is fine. My group decided to try it out anyways because of other good reviews. The woman working the front wasn’t very inviting. I asked her what their boba tea tasted like and her response was “uhm tea?!”… great. Upon getting like 7 different menus to look at we had a couple questions, every time we asked one it was like we were bothering her. We continued to browse the menu and try to decide what to get. Suddenly a GIGANTIC COCKROACH crawls on the floor right by our table.. we decided to leave ASAP because we were just disgusted. I don’t think it’s a very hygienic or welcoming spot.
