I go here every Friday, the staff are delightful and the food even more so. I’m writing this review to commemorate the fact that I’m now a usual!!! As soon as I sat down they asked if I’d have my usual, which is a delicious chicken udon soup. I look forward to my udon trip every Friday, and I can’t recommend this place enough.

Amazing sushi and rolls. The mango rolls are a favorite, so good.
Highly recommend checking out the food. Take out or dine in… great place.

Driving down Island today, plenty of places to stop but focussed on making it here. The service here is fantastic and I love how they make their Yam rolls! Fancy and well priced. I look forward to a visit when ever I’m on the Island. Looking at the dishes at other tables, there’s plenty of good choices! P.S. the tea and miso soup are also good!

Went here for our 3rd anniversary… first time ever being able to go out to eat without kids. I must say this far exceeded my expectations, which was already high.
The food was fast and delicious. We will be back again. Thank you!

We only use pick up since we have had a few weird experiences when eating in (requesting a specific table by phone and then not getting it, even though it was empty the whole time we were there…not having any saki). Food is usually pretty good, but they takeout bags are made of non-woven polypropylene, which has to be recycled in the specialized soft plastic at the dump or recycling depot. Seems like a lot of waste when a simple paper bag could be used.

I ordered dumplings and I know right away the dumplings they serve are ready-made from a grocery store. I saw the sushi makers dip their hands on the same bowl of dirty water. Not impressed.

If I could give 0 stars I would. This is the second time I’ve had an awful experience. I don’t even know why I gave it a second try a few years later. When they first opened they were amazing. Over the years it’s just DOWNHILL. The guy who took my order even had the audacity to call me back and say “he spoke to his boss and what I said on the phone about there poor service was very rude.”
So many things I could write about. The one that bugs me the most. When I ordered, I asked for a substitute. I asked kindly for a veggie sunomono with my dinner box, instead of an ebi. Which comes with the shrimp. So basically something cheaper and less ingredients. (Easier to make)
Was told they couldn’t do any substitutes because it was dinner and it was ‘simply too busy’
Uhm… not to mention going into the restaurant itself. They need a surprise inspection. I’m surprised I haven’t heard of more cases of food poisoning from there. And I’ve heard of quite a few. You can even see them keeping chemicals / cleaning supplies by the food product. Not sure if any one of them even have food safe .
Bottom line. Avoid this place. If you want sushi try ANYWHERE else but this location. You’ll thank me you saved your time and money.

The food and service here are exceptional. Sometimes they get extremely busy, as there are only two servers, it’s really hard for them to handle all the coming order at one time. However, they always try their best to serve everyone. It’s sad that some of the customers do not understand service industry, blaming hard working servers for their unsatisfied personal demands. If they have any experience working in a rush restaurants like this, I believe they won’t complain like that. Anyway, it’s my favorite sushi place on the island and I highly recommend the service and food here. It’s a hidden gem in Ladysmith.

Busy little place on a Friday night. None stop take-out. The food was great. Service was good. We’ll be back.

I’ve been here many times and always leave happy, full and glad I stopped by. Haven’t been in a while and just came to have a nice supper out. This visit was probably the best plate presentation we have yet. Thanks Sushi Wara
