Lots and lots of food options (don’t forget to look at their Menu Specials, separate from their regular menu). Loved that their menu was marked for dietary restrictions (I.e., GF) so we did not have to ask additional on how the dish was prepared. The server was very attentive and all dishes came out fast and fresh. Absolutely loved their garlic fried rice, good to have in addition to sushi rolls.
Tried Rakugaki and take out experience was satisfactory. While the portions were smaller than what is generally received, every dish showcased an exquisite presentation and authentic Japanese flavors. The attention to detail in each dish reflected a commitment to quality. The smaller portions allowed for a more explorative dining experience, enabling a variety of flavors without feeling overwhelmed. The service was helpful, with the staff providing helpful recommendations. Eager to return to indulge in other offerings on the menu. Plenty of parking available and easy to get to.
Good Japanese food! The service is pretty frantic and they’re very busy so make a reservation in advance. Their tempura udon was pretty good but I really liked the Sushi Assortment. Their seaweed salad was also good
Nothing outstanding from the sushi itself: you have to have the standard of freshness, clean, and served properly. What I can say is that I was not disappointed and actually I was impressed to see fresh sea urchin and scallops as part of the sashimi deluxe platter. Presentation wasn't over the top with all the shave white radish and other items that takes away from the food. Great place to have a wonderful dinner date as the background noise and music isn't so loud and you can carry a very relaxing conversation. Outdoor seating is available at the sidewalk/storefront as well.
Really nice place with good food and cool ambience. Everything we ordered was delicious. The yellowtail sashimi was amazing with the black sesame sauce. The salad has nice touch of dressing. Their eel on rice is very nice.
