The sushi is AMAZING, lots of options! Friendly service. Will be back :)

This place almost looks deserted from the outside be assembled of overgrown shrubs and peeling paint. Inside it might be taken as a little dilapidated but I prefer to see it as cozy and even romantic. The service was very kind and helpful. Between the two of us we had a noodle dish and the chicken and steak dinner stir fry dinners as well as two appetizers and a sushi roll. (We like food, ok, and we were taking the steak to go for her hubby) Everything looked fabulous and tasted amazing. Even down to the spicy mustard I added to my noodle dish. If you like Japanese food and do not ear here you are crazy! Price for portion was incredibly fair.

We "dined" in, but didn't actually dine. We left without finishing our food, when we found a bug crawling on the table next to my husband's arm! The pictures on this website do not match how the interior looks at all. There are holes cut into the walls, covered by cardboard. There was no central air, but there were small electric units plugged in throughout the restaurant, and there were extension cords everywhere. Also, there was what appeared to be "takeout" orders, sitting, at room temperature, waiting for pickup, for the entire time we were there. We should have left much sooner!

The food is very good. Unfortunately everything else from service to atmosphere professionalism and organization is garbage. Hence the one star for good food. I called an hour before they were closed per Google. And the person who answered the phone wouldn't take my order because they were closed. I asked what time on Fridays they close now since clearly their Google profile was incorrect. They were unable to provide me a time and after a couple of rounds of questioning they finally answered that they had little business today so they closed. While this is understandable it's no way to run a business. I hope that they find their desired rhythm soon because it would be unfortunate for a restaurant with such good food to go out of business. Although I do understand why they have little business considering the complaints listed above.

First time coming here, was referred by a nurse at lubbock heart hospital. Best decision ever, food was amazing. Definitely coming back next time we are in town.

You know it’s a bad sign when you go to a restaurant on a Friday evening and you are the only ones, but we pushed forward anyway and were rewarded with some of the worst food ever. We even heard a microwave being used and couldn’t tell which of our dishes were microwaved because it was all truly horrible food. Take ours and other recent review’s advice and stay away, they aren’t exaggerated.

Terrible experience! Expensive food- just for us to all get food poisoning. We had a party of 4 and the one who didn’t eat the sushi is the only one of us who didn’t get sick and vomited. The 3 of us who got sushi- one of us threw up in the restaurant and two of us threw up right when we got home. $114 just for us to all throw it up.

Great food and service, nice local small business. The scallops were my favorite!
