First note to self: never order sushi at a Mexican restaurant. Tacos durados were delicious as well as the tamarindo drink but the sushi roll was dry and they used hard rice that wasn’t anything near a sushi rice. Good atmosphere with outside seating on a good weather day. Do not get the appetizer chili guerito it was so slimy filled with shrimp and wrapped with bacon. I’ve never had a slim chili.

Omg! Sushi Mexican style!!! The best sushi I’ve tried in Boston plus Mexican flavors, you won’t find other place like this with original and authentic dishes, the portion size were amazing the staff super friendly, everything clean, the Jamaica drink delicious, even if you are not sushi lover definitely you should come!!! Don’t miss it please!!

Don't expect to have an authentic sushi roll here, it was more like a Mexican rice roll with proteins and cheese on top. Ask for the updated menus, as our final check was different from the prices in the menu. Ceviche and Teriyaki bowl were good.

★★★★★ 5.0 Justin Fyten · Jul 2025

I have been going here for years and have tried almost everything on the menu. Everything is delicious and well-crafted from the unique sushi rolls to the classic and authentic Mexican dishes. The interior is clean and well decorated with a modern vibe. The staff are all extremely friendly and courteous. This is a true authentic restaurant in a world where everything is becoming a chain. This is truly a hidden gem just steps from the blue line.
