Great food and many options to choose from. We liked everything we got. Beauty and beast roll and hottie hottie were really good and would recommend along with the sumo pork bun. We would highly recommend those 3.

Second visit: egg rolls, chicken teriyaki were good, Thai tea had too much milk tasted watered down compared to first visit. Waiter chased us out the door and demanded why we did not tip. Service was at best okay, never asked if we needed anything or how food was. I had to flag her down to order a second Thai tea with less milk this time. First visit: Thai tea is to die for!!!! Crab wantons, hottie hottie were amazing! Spicy miso soup was good if you like miso. mango tango was good small bite size, crunchy salmon was fishy, spicy tako had a good crunch small bite size.

This place is great! I ordered both types of buns, the Yasai Ramen, and the garden salad. The buns were amazing, all the flavors went together really well and it all tasted so fresh and there was a nice kick to it. The ramen was superrrr yummy. I usually get tonkotsu ramen and was a little nervous to get vegetarian broth this time, but it was surprisingly creamy and so good I was ready for another bowl! The garden salad was also fresh and delicious. Overall everything tasted great and I can’t wait to go back :)

Probably the best miso broth I've tasted. The spicy miso broth wasn't too spicy and you could taste how rich it was. Pork chashu was different than any other pork belly I've had but in the best way. Not the biggest bowl in terms of serving size, but totally worth it. Next time I plan to try the tonkotsu.

Delicious! This is a small Japanese restaurant that does not take reservations. However it is worth the wait! The service is kind and fast, and most importantly, all the food was fantastic! Would highly recommend the crab wontons for an appetizer. The contemporary maki are large (big enough for one person if also sharing an appetizer). I think it's been my favorite sushi in the Milwaukee area!
