Reviews
The price point feels high given the portion sizes, but the technique is impressive and it gives vegans a genuine sushi experience. Highly recommended for the execution, especially if you don’t eat fish.
The waitstaff were very friendly and responsive and helpful with recommendations.
Food wise, everything was good, including the miso soup and yuba salad, but the rolls are where the magic is. They’re all beautifully crafted and presented. We tried the California roll (great!), sweet tofu nigiri, Missing piece (made GF), and Boddy and Soul (recommended, and a winner by my dining partner, but not GF).
It was a real delight to enjoy such delicious food, carefully created, crafted, and presented, making it a multi sensory treat.
Wish there was a GF tempura option to make more of the rolls available to celiacs, but I loved what I had. Definitely recommend the fun, relaxed, down to earth atmosphere and uniquely Japanese vibe. Think stylish onsen, an indulgence where you leave feeling fulfilled, healthy, and happy!
One of the best gems in the city for vegan sushi. Amazing ambiance, service, and decor.
Lot of great options – highly recommend the Boddy & Souli, and Candlestick sushi.
Don’t skip their dessert of the day!
We got tea (small), shishito peppers (ok), green mango nigiri (amazing), three speciality rolls (yummm), and dessert (would pass on this and get another roll next time). Our entire order ended up a little over $100. And just FYI the habanero sauce is no joke.
Very sweet staff and clean bathrooms.
Would go back and would recommend.
The food not only looks but also tastes yum. With a blend of textures to flavors you’ll like bow these are layered.
We got the bar sitting as we did not plan in advance, recommended for getting a table. But if all you care is about food then feel free to walkin for the bar table.
It was my first visit here and all the names I’ve mentioned here are must try.
Keeping short and crisp until I visit next..
The dumplings were good; the avocado was great with the beet aioli on top — a nice surprise; but the highlight of the evening was the boddy and soul – it was umami of flavors with spice, saltiness and was delicious!
Neatly kept place with great service. Would absolutely go back given an opportunity.
