We stopped by here for a snack before heading back over the pass to our Genoa resort, and we are glad we did. We had some hand rolls, sake, and Sapporo. Pulling up, you could tell by the people entering and exiting that it was a popular spot, both for locals and tourists. When we left, the line was out the door, so it just got busier. We decided to sit at the counter, as we are bar seat people. The sake was really good, although it took a minute to arrive. The hand rolls were amazing. Although that was our only sample size for the food, we understood the popularity of the place. I didn't catch the name of a server, as it is a team atmosphere, and several people on the floor and behind the counter helped us. We really enjoyed our stop here.

Solid Sushi Spot! Great find in South Lake Tahoe! Fresh sushi with nice variety—loved the spicy tuna roll and rainbow roll, super fresh fish and good portions. Nigiri was high quality too. Cozy vibe, friendly service, and prices are fair for the area. A bit busy at peak times, but worth it. Will come back!

So good. We sat at the sushi bar. Amazing rolls. Best miso I’ve ever had. The sushi chef made us a special. Just an excellent dinner and experience.

Our new favorite restaurant in South Lake Tahoe area! The food are fresh and taste amazing (we ordered rolls, miso ramen, and tropical roll as dessert), the service is top-tier (our waiters literally read our mind, and always be there when we need them), and it’s so easy to get there and find parking nearby as well.

Service was Great, friendly and professional We started with Egg rolls as they sounded interesting and were a cross between a traditional Egg roll and a Crab Puff, very GOOD. The Shelly roll and Spicy Scallop was Excellent. I got the cold Saki (get the more expensive one by the glass) and my wife did a Chardonnay and both were pleased with our selection. Tried the 'special desert of the day', friend Cheesecake. Tasted like a ricotta based instead of NY Cheese cake, and was good.
