Customer Reviews
We have dined here almost weekly for several years now. Tiger and his staff are wonderful and the food is the best around!
I ordered their two-side combination, and it was a big portion! Make sure you're hungry if you decide to try this option. The meat was very tasty, with enough flavor not to overwhelm you. The service was great as well. I highly recommend this restaurant.

A lady apologized to us (the owner?) when we were leaving and thanked us for our patience because our order took ridiculously long to come out. The kids were so hungry and kept asking about their ramen. She said it was because there were so many orders at once (the restaurant is small and other than
Good sushi and friendly service. We like to sit at the sushi bar. I've enjoyed everything I ordered so far.
