Customer Reviews
Very slow service, waited 40 minutes for two items. Staff are not friendly, perhaps because they barely speak English. Restaurant empty on Friday night. The situation speaks for itself.
I came to this place and was waiting for the food. When it was finally my turn to pick up the order, the worker didn’t even look at me. She just told me it would take “a couple more minutes” and that I needed to wait outside. I was confused, because it was –3°C, so I asked, “Outside?” She goes yes outside, but after i asked her why cant i stay inside she pointed to a small room next to the entrance, which is what she meant by outside for somereason. I waited for over 15 minutes (remember she told me couple minutes in the beginning), and then I asked her when my food would be ready especially since she originally said it would only be a couple of minutes. When I asked, she said, “Honestly, I don’t know… maybe 10–15 more minutes.” That’s when I got really frustrated and disappointed. When s
I love how big their menu is. It can be hard to find restaurants with more than one kind of veggie sushi and they had lots of options. I got the avocado/ cucumber maki and triple A maki. Both were delicious. I also got spicy mayo.. it didn't really taste like mayo to me. The sauce was really dark orange but I was fine with it. More sushi for less money than nori sushi. This was a good find on grubhub!
Strictly mediocre. When you are accustomed or know what good sushi should be like, you will be disappointed. Caterpillar roll had very little unagi and a strange fruity sauce on top and the slices of avocado were paper thin. Spicy scallop roll was fine, just not great. Spicy tuna roll tasted like a supermarket roll. And the salmon nigiri looked and tasted like yesterday’s fish. Friendly staff. Interior decor could be any restaurant - little ambiance. $80 - oh well.
The freshest sushi I have ever had! Our server, Lisa, was very attentive snd friendly. We were there only a few moments and were whisked away into sushi Heaven. Great meal and wonderful service.
