Great service, good atmosphere and big portions. Unfortunately, I found the food underwhelming.
I'll never return. I didn't enjoy my dining experience. I only ate a small part and threw the rest in the garbage.

“Cute little spot in downtown Oak Park.”
Cute little spot in downtown Oak Park. My son and I ordered the spicy tonkatsu ramen and the dragon rolls. The ramen was superb and quite spicy. The dragon roll was excellent and highly recommend. Great service. Will definitely visit again.

Came with my dad because we were craving sushi and kept hearing good things about this place. It did not disappoint. From the fresh and flavorful sushi to the service- it was a perfect meal on a cold winter day.

The salmon sushi was five stars!” says my seven-year-old. From the tea to the edamame, the seaweed salad, the ramen, and the sushi rolls, everything was excellent. The restaurant was immaculate, and the service was impeccable. I wish we lived closer; I’ll be back on every visit.

“It's kid friendly and has great food.”
It's kid friendly and has great food! Our toddlers (3&4) had such a great time last Sunday. The ladies who were serving were incredibly sweet and gave us chop stick trainers and checked in us plenty. The food was quick and delicious. We had a dragon roll, shrimp shumai, tuna tartar, two kids ramen, California roll, and a a couple more things. All perfect! Great spot! We can't wait to go again. Now we can get sushi and ramen more often! We're so excited!
