From the sushi I tried it's not super traditional Japanese, but food was delicious and beautifully presented. The agadashi tofu was perfect, fried calamari came with 2 amazing sauces. The ceviche roll is smart and delicious and I would go back to have it again! Also, the home beer Vienna style was so so good, highly recommended.

Great place for sushi in Evanston! We go almost every Sunday, David and the rest of the crew are very friendly and provide impeccable service. The food is a great value for the price and is always delicious. Highly recommended for lunch or dinner!

“Bluefin tuna was perfectly done.”

Bluefin tuna was perfectly done. The Chilean Sea Bass was done right. The fish was slightly crispy on one side and fleshy all the way through. The vegetables were lightly cooked and had a nice crunch. I'll be back.

“Great experience with service, food, and atmosphere.”

Great experience with service, food, and atmosphere. The lobster spring roll was a tasty variation of a spring roll. The lobster was fresh and delicious. The bacon wrapped scallops were also fantastic. All the fish was fresh and presented in creative ways. Can't wait to return.

Ordered takeout. In most other places I went to, salmon is almost the only type of fish that is fresh enough. But the fish here is SO GOOD! Finally some real fresh yellowtail and legit O toro that you can see the rich, beautiful white veins of fat, and taste that signature sweetness. The cut was generous too, well matched the price range. Very satisfied.

I stopped in here while staying at an Airbnb that was close and I was beyond happy with everything about my visit! The friendly and helpful staff, absolutely exquisite food, the inviting atmosphere, everything was just awesome. The sushi chef was skilled beyond belief and took great pride in his work. It will truly go down as one of the best food experiences I've ever had. Thank you!

The restaurant is nicely designed. I went with a group, and we were comfortable and able to associate and talk to everyone in our group. The waitress was helpful and friendly and the food and drinks were very good.
