    Nice place. Food was good. Service was fast. My family likes the sizzling fish dishes, which are very tasty. Clam ramen is a popular dish and that was good too. All in all a good place for dinner/lunch.

    The restaurant seems to need some cleaning work. The workers were arguing. The atmosphere didn't seem very friendly. We wait a little bit for aour food (just rolls). All you can drink (tea). The food is not bad.

    This place is amazing. Michael and his team are the best! It's usually busy, very busy but they service you as fast as they can. The food is totally worth the slight wait. Top sushi spot 👌 for me!

    The 3 star rating is for their service and not their food. I have been coming to this place to to three times a week for about a year. If Angela is there I can pretty much expect The worst service imaginable. I am never greeted. Sometimes I stand there uncomfortably in the front of the restaurant, Clearly visible to the staff, for what seems like about a minute without even as much as an acknowledgment by any of the staff. In all fairness this does not happen when the male waiter is there (wish I knew his name/small place / same people every day ) just Angela. Lots of hello, goodbyes have a great day, nice to see you, thank you, for others that come and go from this restaurant and rarely as much as a smile or welcome to me, someone who regularly patronizes them. I was there this week where a man came in about 10 minutes or more after me and was served his food also about 10 minutes BEFORE me. Today they served me a soup without a spoon. I had to actually ask for a spoon! Keep in mind soup comes with the lunch special so it’s not like I’m ordering something out of the ordinary. hot tea cones with the order I also had to ask for it. Today I have finally decided to never come back to this place because it’s mind blowing to me and also extremely disappointing that a restaurant would treat me this way. Also it’s even more disappointing to me that I always felt the need to always tip despite the horrid service ( guilt). I guess I was tipping for the service I hoped to receive. Again I want to reiterate this treatment mostly comes from Angela. I am assuming ( as much as this disappoints me) it’s because I am African American ( wild guess/ no not really). I came to this conclusion as I’m in this restaurant eating by myself. I have a whole hour to observe everyone’s behavior and their interaction with their customers. This is a common theme for them for customers who are POC. I noticed their was a black gentleman today sitting with an Asian women’s : same behavior. They interacted and addressed her and rarely this gentleman. It was so blatantly obvious it was disturbing the level of disrespect. I’m sure this restaurant will not take this as constructive criticism but for the love of god DO BETTER.

    I went there for probably the 5th time last night. The sushi is so good! The atmosphere is also great. I would recommend the California roll if you like crab. I have had many California rolls, and this was my favorite, probably because it had REAL crab. I also really enjoy the tempura roll. It has lots of flavor and is perfectly cooked. All in all I totally recommend this if you are looking for the worlds best sushi.
