★★★★★ 5.0 Allison Walker · Dec 2025

My husband, who eats sushi like its water, found this place one day and couldn't wait to show me. They are a small, cozy shop in a basement in the city. They have a respectively diverse menu for a sushi restaurant and make everything individually to order. With this in mind, yes please plan to spend time there. It is a bit pricey, but for us it is worth it every time.

★★★★★ 5.0 Vinith S. · May 2025

Loved the place. Amazing food and ambiance of a proper Japanese restaurant, Totally worth the price of admission. Sushi was fresh and the Ramen broth was mouth watering. Definitely going back multiple times to try their whole menu:)

★★★★★ 5.0 Jeff Oppenheim · Nov 2025

Small authentic feeling restaurant. Japanese curry can be found here and a full sushi bar.

Great sushi!!! We ordered toro , rainbow roll And tuna avocado. Quality of fish was great! Gyoza and sauce were very tasty as well.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Hao Tan · Oct 2025

Food and atmosphere were good, but the service ruined our visit. We politely asked how long the food would take because we had a meeting afterward, and the waitress snapped, “We can CANCEL your order and you can LEAVE.” We were shocked by her rudeness and stone-faced attitude. Another waiter was kind, but this interaction with the waitress overshadowed everything. It’s disappointing to be treated this way. Now I can see why the rating of this restaurant is so low despite the good food. Management really needs to address basic courtesy and politeness.
