Great food and service! Prices very reasonable too, not as expensive as it said on OpenTable. Ramen was very filling and the shrimp shumai was really good.

Phenomenal dinner from start to finish. We went saturday night around 8:30 pm - not too busy, but a nice calm ambiance. Everything we ate was amazing. Service was awesome - We got some upsetting news right before walking in and they saw it. We started off with sake and they gave it to us on the house. Every entree came with a delicious miso soup and salad. We got the fried rice, yellowtail, and sushi dinner (pictured). For apps we got the tuna tartare and edamame- they were fantastic. Good bang for your buck - we will definitely be back.

A small and plain sushi restaurant, with okay service and a menu with sushi, teriyaki, noodles and more, but a slow/disorganized kitchen the night our party of two were there. Very accommodating and kind staff, that's balanced with food that is not paced in a logical way ie. appetizers first, entrees second -- it showed up at our table more like an unplanned fire drill after wondering where our food was at the 1/2 hr + mark. The restaurant feels more geared to take out.
