“Incredible sushi, the fish is very fresh and the rolls are innovative and delicious!”

“This place is often way less busy than it deserves. The sushi is incredible and it's a great value.”

“A fairly average sushi experience. We ordered the sashimi set, which was decent but unremarkable - the fish selection felt limited, with the salmon belly being the most memorable bite thanks to its fatty texture and slight smokiness. The sushi rice was notably bland and missing the brightness of rice vinegar. A serviceable option if you’re nearby, but not a spot that leaves much of an impression.”
“Food was delicious. Salmon was super fresh. We particularly liked the citrus salmon and salmon avo. Wee was an extraordinary waitress. Definitely worth trying. We'll come back!”
“Had an amazing experience here! Our server, Wee was so attentive and kind. Our food was ready super fast and we barely had to wait, even with ordering multiple times. The fish was so fresh and seemed high quality. They also give you a cute little dessert at the end. I’m so happy we came across this place and we will definitely be coming back!!”
“Excellent sushi. We often do take out from here and it is always perfect.”
“Amazing value for the quality. Such warm, friendly service. We eat a lot of sushi and this was our favorite in recent memory. Would highly recommend.”
“Every time I want sushi on a Thursday during my lunch break I get no sushi 😔. please open at 12 on Thursdays. Sincerely, A hungry health care worker P.S really good sushi and the wasabi is so good”
“Great quality fish, BYOB, and always clean with friendly staff. Reasonable prices. My go to sushi spot”
“Food was delicious. We got the gyoza, edamame, and a bunch of makimono and specialty rolls. They did have soy wrappers for my friend. The quality of the fish was great. The gyoza is some of the best I've ever had. Highly recommend!!! Cost $130 for three of us including tip and taxes.”
