Personally, I really enjoyed my visit. I mainly ordered miso soup, takoyaki, and a black widow roll, however, all of the food that I had and saw was delicious and had a great presentation. I was impressed. Their menu is a bit on the pricy side, but still satisfying. The workers here were very polite and got stuff out almost immediately despite balancing multiple tables and a few large parties at the same time. The interior was also quite pretty. My only criticism is that while the majority of their menu is very well-rounded and varied, I do wish they had a bit more variety in the sushi rolls that they offered. Otherwise, I highly recommend for anyone looking for a good sushi place in the area.

This is a wonderful place to dine. Everything top to bottom was fabulous. Our server Isabelle was so kind and courteous. She recommended her favorite dishes, and they certainly did not disappoint. The black and gold Katsu ramen for me and my husband had the spicy tonkatsu ramen.We were so impressed with the flavor and presentation. We hope to come dine again soon!

The service and vibes of this place are really what made it shine. Our server was Melody and she was fantastic. The sushi is very well priced for the portions you get. However, while the flavors of the sushi were good, they fell a bit flat on many of the rolls.

This place is amazing, and hands down best Japanese food in the Greater Lafayette area and possibly Indianapolis metro. They actually have real sushi and not deep fried things smothered in sauce. Food was prepared with a lot of care and portions were fantastic. The prices were actually really good compared to similar (but not as tasty or have as nice ambiance) Japanese restaurants in the area. Highly recommended.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lizzie Redinger · Oct 2025

Absolutely loved this restaurant, the atmosphere was great, classy but not overly fancy. Service was friendly and helpful, food was awesome. Appetizers are definitely for sharing. We got takoyaki and edemame along with a salmon lovers sushi plate which was plenty and perhaps a bit too much between 2 people, but everything was delicious.
