Reviews
A very sweet Asian woman greets guests with genuine care, warm smiles, and lots of attention. The entire staff is extremely pleasant, the service is very fast, and the food is delicious.
I honestly don’t understand who wrote all those negative reviews about this place. I’m really glad I didn’t believe them and decided to come here myself — mostly because this sushi restaurant was close to my hotel. The bad reviews didn’t scare me, and I chose to give it a try.
All those previous bad reviews feel strange and even absurd, almost as if they were written by competitors. It’s hard to believe that people could have such drastically different experiences in the same place.
The hibachi chef was awesome though! He was very entertaining and sweet bc he helped cut the shrimp for a customer’s child. The portion was big! Flavor was good!
In small typing, there is a 4% convenience fee for using credit cards. Didn’t realize it until I saw my receipt. The server only came once to give us a drink and one more time to give us soup and salad. Then last time to give us the bill. Service was not great.
The parking lot is not very big and several spaces are compact only. So be mindful of parking. The staff helped quick to seat us and was nice. There was obvious language barriers, but that did not bother me. There is only two real options–sushi buffet (order at the table style) and hibachi. We did the sushi buffet. We also did the lunch (16 per plate plus 18% is added to the check/ 35 dollar ticket for two with water). There are paper menus on which you can mark your orders and laminated menus that help as a key to identify what’s in the individual rolls that you order. There’s also nigiri (a cut of sashimi on a bed of rice). I stuck mostly to the finger rolls and had one specialty roll. I preferred just eating the fish and rice without the drizzled sauce so I would probably only get the nigiri next time. If you like nigiri, the price is great for what you get because you can add soup, salad, ice-cream, and/or noodle entre items. The area was spacious and had a fish tank and nice aethetic. The fish was fresh, and i even saw them carrying 2 uncut fish fillets that were to be sized down to pieces that would be put in the sushi fridge at the bar. I would say that the bathroom needs some love. Some spray needs to be put in there or something. Both the male and female sides stunk bad and could be smelled from outside the door. The look of the restroom was not bad (same color tile on floor and wall and clean).
This sushi buffet was a nice change from the way I usually experience sushi. You can’t leave hungry (or it’s your fault), and the quality does not significantly suffer because of the price. Come hungry and try the nigiri.
