I love this place so much! Everything is high quality, from food to atmosphere. Fresh food, fast service, very nice servers and chefs who greet you with a smile. Price point isn't bad either. My toddler loved the food here as well (udon and miso soup), I'm 100% coming back for more.

The best sushi experience in the area hands down. Some of the freshest fish I’ve ever had especially this far inland. Waiters are always super nice and attentive. Sushi chefs are very skilled and a wonder to be around such amazing people. 11/10 restaurant. If you’re ever having a rough day this will likely help fix it.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Patricia · Oct 2025

We have been here twice. First time really good experience sitting at sushi bar. The chefs are fantastic. Sushi was very good. Service at bar was good but servers don't seem to like filling up soft drink glasses. 2nd visit very different. Sat at a table. Service was very slow . Had to track down servers several times. Again so odd that they are really cheap on refilling sodas. Soft drinks $3.95 and only allow one refill. We like Ponzu sauce instead of soy sauce with our sushi. Asked for some and received a tiny little cup. asked for some more and they charged us for another tiny bowl..$1.50 for me and my husband. so $3 I know these things alone are not a huge deal but these little petty cheap things when spending a decent amount of money for dinner is a real turnoff. We likely will

Great place...lots of choices of sushi and other things to choose from. You can sit at a bar and watch your food made or you can sit at a table..whatever your flavor is. Staff is friendly and very attentive. The wait time is a little long so recommend reserving and/or calling ahead, but it's worth the wait.

★★★★★ 5.0 Brenda Gray · Apr 2025

Great place! Food was amazing! Service was great! Couldn't ask for a better place! They have early bird specials so go between 5 and 6 pm if you like sushi and the rest of the menu has proved good so far. Highly recommend and will be back again for sure!
