As for the food, it could’ve been better. We both had the miso soup and agreed that it was very good, especially with how cold it is outside right now. The sushi rolls, however, need some work. There’s way too much vinegar in the rice, which makes the sushi taste very sour. Toward the end, we were having to take the rice off the rolls just to eat them.
Another issue is that the ingredients in some of the rolls aren’t very balanced size-wise. At some points, we were basically eating onigiri. We had gotten the AYCE sushi, so we didn’t try their other menu items, but we’re definitely going back to try their other options—just maybe not as our first choice for AYCE sushi.
I had such a great experience at this sushi restaurant! The fish was incredibly fresh and every dish was beautifully prepared. The menu has a wide variety of both classic and creative options, with just the right portion sizes. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing, perfect for a date night or dinner with friends. The service was excellent too – the staff was friendly, attentive, and always smiling. Definitely one of the best sushi spots in the area, I’ll be coming back soon!
The service is normally good but this time I had a negative moment that was suprising. I would’ve given 5 stars if that wasnt the case. The server spilled things on me twice. The first time was the hot clear soup. I told her very nicely its okay, things happen, and she got me napkins. The 2nd time she spilt water all over my phone. Trying to talk through the food in my mouth, I urgently asked her for some napkins. She got busy doing other things so i thought she didnt hear me ask so I asked for some the 2nd time she came around, a while later. Said to me “Yeah I have other tables” when it took a while to get napkins for things spilt on my technology. I wasn’t even rude when I asked so I dont know where the harshness came from. She was nice until that point but that comment and look left a sour taste in my mouth. She was nice after as well. Maybe it was a moment of overwhelm but im not sure. It still was jarring.
Erika did a great job explaining each item on the menu and answering all my questions.
She was very attentive and welcoming.
The hibachi dishes are very decent in portion and the full in flavor. The steak is cook just right and tender.
The sushi is fairly good.
The only item I was somewhat disappointed, was the tonkotsu ramen, although the broth is bold and full of flavor, its missing more substance and vegatables. I also requested to be extra spicy and it tasted just as plain ramen.
Other than that, I encourage you to give this place a chance.
I ordered a ginger salad, which is one of my favorite things to order at any restaurant that has it. The ginger dressing wasn’t great, but taste of the dressing was probably offset by the brown and soggy lettuce I was given. As for the sushi roll, I ordered a Philadelphia roll, again, one of my favorites no matter where I go. The first thing I noticed was a dog hair tangled up in the rice. (I don’t own an animal so I know it wasn’t from me). The rice on the sushi was more like a paste, someone went a little too crazy on the rice vinegar and it ruined the roll for me. I tried to get down as much as I could so I didn’t get the upcharge for leaving rolls behind, but I still ended up leaving a few. My boyfriend got the volcano roll and it was probably the worst sushi roll I’ve ever had, which is saying a lot. All you could taste was cream cheese and vinegar from the rice, our server actually suggested that we cover it up with napkins so we didn’t get charged. The shrimp tempura was tough and my boyfriend had more seaweed than broth in his miso soup. (Guessing it was from the bottom of the pot.)
It sucked knowing that we paid 28.99 each just to lose our appetites. I grew up in the restaurant business, I know things are difficult when you first open, but there wasn’t a single dish that I could describe as tasty. I ran into a coworker at the restaurant as we were leaving and they also told me about how awful their experience was. They got a California roll, one of the most basic sushi rolls, and couldn’t manage to get it down and had to pay the extra for the rolls left behind. I don’t know if we all just caught this place at a bad time (we got there at 7:30 on a Thursday, typical dinner time) or something, but I don’t know how these reviews are so positive. Very misleading, please don’t waste money here like we did, you’ll be unsatisfied, hungry, and kicking yourself for not being able to avoid the upcharge for being given something that isn’t edible. You’re better off going somewhere like Simply Thai or Red Bowl.
