Small portions for the prices. The nabe Udon had very skimpy ingredients, but nigiris had a good sashimi to rice ratio. Came here because it was added under the RESY list.

Saw the great reviews here so gave it a chance but it let me down. The nigiri is too basic for the price, it was fine, but had little flavor. The rice was hard and hardly seasoned. Tasted like it had sat in the refrigerator all day. The California roll however was good. Just not worth it, there are so many better places nearby

Amazing service and food. The salmon teriyaki combo was delicious and the tuna/salmon sashimi was fresh. Restaurant has a nice cozy vibe. A bit on the pricey side especially for dinner but otherwise always a great experience.

My new personal favorite for Sushi. The service is excellent and the food is fresh. I enjoy the shrimp tempura and the different options for sushi – of which there are many. My go-to choices are either “G-Spot” or “Washington Roll” for the sushi. I also liked the rainbow roll and the Mackerel.

Really delicious sushi, bulgogi and teriyaki! Probably the best California roll I’ve ever had. Extremely attentive and lovely staff. Great value for money. What’s not to like! Thanks for a good dinner.

Very attentive.. Food was good. A bit over priced in my opinion. That being said I would return. The salad dressing not the greatest. But the miso was delicious and so was the Thai ice tea. I ordered short ribs which was a large portion. My friend ordered the sushi and tempura she enjoyed it.

Sushi monster is a fun sushi option for a large variety of rolls. It is always busy during lunchtime and there is a wait if you drop in during rush hour.
The restaurant is run like a mom and pop shop and gives off those vibes.
Parking is only street parking.

Spider Roll is delicious and tastes as if real crab. Golden Roll (Fried California) is a new GoTo roll for me here, nicely prepared, good presentation. Edamame is the largest portion I’ve seen to date in a sushi restaurant….and served within minutes. ICE COLD Sapporo served in a frozen mug actually froze some of the beer in the top of my glass, excellent. Only mild complaint is pricing, highest in area, but as long as sushi is top notch, I’ll continue to come back. 4.8 Stars (-.2 for pricing).
Previous:
Great overall experience. Very attentive staff, greeted as I walked in the door (and everyone else as well). Drink and appetizer served within a minute or 2 of walking in the door. Although the Edamame wasn’t piping hot, it was warm+ and plentiful, but a couple dollars more than other locations. The beer was served with a frozen mug…unlike most others, and a big plus (helped earn the 5 stars. Since ALL CRAB IS IMITATION HERE, and no choice for substitution, I ordered a smoked salmon roll instead of the traditional California. Only 6 pieces here (instead of typical 8), making each piece more expensive as well. I finished off with a Firecracker roll. It hit the spot, but might continue doing so all evening. Florida sushi restaurants don’t know what heat is relative to this roll. Overall great experience, but I do side with Chris Wahl’s comments (below) though in regards to price.

We went here a little after lunchtime and this place was busy. Inside was simply decorated. Every time someone enters, the whole crew happily greets you. It is definitely a welcoming vibe.
I placed an order to go, and the 2 ladies there were happy to help.
I ordered:
1. Teriyaki steak (dinner portion) – The teriyaki steak came with salad and miso soup. They told me the order was a bigger portion, which was perfect for my husband. I’m glad I ordered an extra order of rice, even after they said that the rice was more than enough. Sorry, we are filipino and love our rice, lol. The steak was super tender and flavorful.
2. Combo B2 (bul-gogi, beef teriyaki, bbq beef short rib, 3 pcs CA roll, and 2 pcs shrimp tempura) – This was perfect for me. A sampler of all the meats. All the meats were so tender, but all stood out in their own way. They didn’t taste like they were marinated all in the same sauce if that makes sense. Each one stood out on their own. I loved it. The shrimp tempura was not the standard one that we all know. This one was light and crunchy. It’s not soggy and greasy likeli how the other shrimp tempuras get. I wish I had ordered more rice because the portions were on point.
3. Gyoza – This was crispy and crunchy. Almost felt like it was deep fried and not pan-fried like other places. It was also a 2 biter for me, not where you usually pop a whole one in your mouth.
4. Spicy tuna roll – To my surprise, it wasn’t spicy, but it was flavorful.
5. Godzilla roll – I think this is the standard dragon roll. Their dragon roll didn’t have shrimp tempura. This was delicious.
I highly recommend this place and can’t wait to go back. The only bummer was that their credit card machine wasn’t working when I went. Had to pay Venmo. Good thing I had Venmo. This place was a little pricy but well worth it.

Perhaps I’m being a bit unfair, but this place has absolutely raised prices by a huge margin post pandemic. Call it inflation, but no longer do I feel I’m getting a quality meal at a quality price.
The sushi and rolls are prepared well. Top notch? Far from it. Just solid sushi. Well made. But not special enough. Yet they command $10 for the cheapest 2 piece nigiri.
The atmosphere is okay at best. Not your date spot. This is supposed to be your everyday sushi joint for locals. But no longer does it fit the mold.
