Great food of REALLY high quality…but food is sometimes really slow coming out. That said, the service is phenomenal and I just was given a free dessert cake because I had to come back to pick up an item that was left out of my delivery. The atmosphere is really nice. And the Seabass Karma is melt-in-your mouth delicious and buttery!! Big, flaky piece of yummy seabass!

Been here many times. I prefer this place much more than the other Japanese spots in Mill Valley. I lived in Hawaii for 10 years and have a high standard for Japanese food. They offer more options and everything I've ordered here is delicious. Will continue to come here. Their wine and sake selection is much better as well.

The night before Thanksgiving my large family ordered a lot of food for dinner, thinking it would be a nice treat. We came to pick it up at 6PM when the food was scheduled to be done and waited 35 minutes before receiving our food without once being acknowledged. Ok so they were in the weeds, fine. Then we got home and about 1/3 of our order was missing, and some of the rolls we did get, we did not order and were not to our liking. The quality of the food we did get was poor - over cooked chicken and mushy sushi Then it gets really bad. When we called to try and get a refund we were treated so poorly. The first employee spent her energy trying not to get in trouble and didn’t really focus on helping. Then I asked to speak to the manager and never got a call back (waited 1.5 weeks) Then

Small and cozy. Light jazz in background. Most authentic sushi+ in Mill Valley for sure. Not fast food fried like many others in Marin. If you’re looking for actual sushi, this is a step below Sushi Ran for example but also a bit less pricey but more personal as its so intimate - you're looking at the chef and you know he knows what he's doing. They seem to be working on a cute outdoor seating arrangement, that’s a work in process. Will be nice in the warmer months. I’m looking forward to going back and trying an omakase experience. They are clearly capable. I’m told it requires making a reservation. Get that in Mill Valley! Support local y’all :)

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Karla Oliveira · Jun 2024

I’ve tried this place yesterday and it was a good surprise. The atmosphere very nice and cozy . I liked a lot of the hand rolls. The Japanese curry was good and tasteful unfortunately the udon it was very plain and mediocre for the price . Maybe adding some flavors more veggies and even a fish cake etc would be more tasteful and fun eating. Otherwise, I loved the place. The portions were great and the service was nice. Unfortunately in my opinion the waiting for the other dishes as the udon and the Japanese curry. Overall it was good and people were very nice .
