Fantastic. Easily among the top few places I've been to for sushi. The service was great too: friendly, helpful, attentive wait staff. They were even patient when we had a bit of a language barrier! We went our first night in town, and liked it so much we took some friends a couple days later. They got noodle soup dishes, which also sounded fabulous.

Food was so good, I forgot to take pics! ? Fast and good. Try the triple combination. Rocks! I'll take pics next time cause I know I'm going back - again and again. They're like a lot of other restaurants going through hard times but this location has persevered over the many years. Mimi has been great over the years as well. It's all been pretty consistent! Great job!! ?✌4/08/22They're still kicking it! Food is as great as always and really quick service!! ? ?✌️

This is a wonderful, local spot. It is small but feels very much like Japan. I was so happy with the food, I forgot to take pictures. The sushi is fresh. The agedashi tofu and tempura were fried just right (light and fluffy). Definitely would recommend to someone who might miss being able to go to Japan for their favorites.

Have to wait outside, no reservation, no list. Sushi is good.

Really liked the sushi in there! Felt like being in Japan! Highly recommend the o-Toro ?Very high quality! And the matcha green tea ice cream at the end was the cherry on top of the cake! Also free edamame as starter ?Would definitely go back! Amazing for dates! ?Menu had names both in Japanese and in English, so another reason to go if you're studying the language ?

It was awesome. They were full downstairs, and they opened up the upstairs just for us. We got it all to ourselves, got to play music on my phone, the service was so sweet and funny, and we had control of the AC without asking. The food tasted great, and was beautifully displayed. We had a wonderful Valentines lunch date. ♥️

Very good food! Reminded me of small Japanese restaurants I used to eat at. All the nigiri was fresh and melt in your mouth delicious! Staff are also very friendly and had great atmosphere overall.

This place has korean workers and they were on point with the service. The food was a bit over priced but it was good. Inside is very limited but cozy, about 7 areas to sit depending on how big your group is. At the end, they gave me a custom calendar of their restaurant and a $10 certificate for the next time I come eat! I would definitely come back to try other things on the menu.I usually do not go to sushi places that aren’t Japanese but I did not get sick from here, therefore I’ll be back!

Excellent customer service, Chris actually tried to help me get the tuna I originally wanted when i ordered the wrong order. Showed problem solving skills and patience. Hope the owner recognises this staff.

Authentic Japanese cuisine. Traditional restaurant menu similar to what is served in Japan. A few items, such as teriyaki ahi, is locally unique. Main menu includes sushi, udon, (noodles) donburi (rice bowls) and teishoku (set meals). Prices are reasonable.The tempura is excellent, lightly battered and not oily. The taste of deep fried items such as shrimp and vegetables is noticeable.The teriyaki ahi was tasty but the sauce was bit "koi" or strong and salty.Parking available next to restaurant. May become limited if nearby bar is reopened. Additional street parking available nearby.Lunch was uncrowded possibly due to reopening for fully vaccinated individuals. Vaccination card and ID required for entry.Would definitely visit again to try other menu items.
