Love it. Much like many sushi places in Japan, they are a small restaurant. Wait was not too long and you can book a reservation online or walk up and get on the list. Quality is awesome. Price is a little higher than I would like but then again no worries. Awesome quality tasty sushi. I liked everything I had.

This place had been on my want-to-go list for a while, and I finally decided to give it a shot. I ordered their Nigiri Combo for pickup through DoorDash. You can choose up to 7 pieces of nigiris and 5 pieces of daily maki (chief's choice). I went with the Maguro (Big Eye Tuna), Hamachi (Yellow Tail), Salmon, Umi Masu (Ocean Trout), Kanpachi( Amberjack), Hotate (Hokkaido Scallop), Toro (Spain Bluefin Tuna. The fish was pretty fresh and delicious, and the price is quite reasonable. The only downside was the wait time. I placed my order at 1:30 PM and selected a 7:20 PM pick-up window. When I got to the restaurant, the order was not ready, and the staff told me it would be another 20 minutes. After 20 minutes of waiting, I came back to the restaurant, and the food was still not ready. I didn't get my food until around 7:50 PM. It made me wonder what the point is of scheduling a pick-up time when I ordered so far in advance.

Really delicious nigiri in a cute restaurant at an affordable price. I ordered the chefs choice set and was really impressed with the quality of the fish as well as the variety... These guys really give good value for money! One note I did have is that I thought the rice was too seasoned for my liking... While the seasoning tasted good it kind of took away from some of the flavors of the fish. My girlfriend and I also shared the spicy salmon roll and were pretty impressed with it as well! Overall I really liked this place and am excited to come back for another chef's choice set! Also, i would highly recommend making a reservation since seating can take a bit.

absolutely stellar sushi. fast, fresh and great variety. unbelievable value for $25/nigiri combo. always busy, so i recommend dining early to make sure they don’t run out of what you want (and to beat the crowds!)
