Good comfort food. The restaurant was quiet when we were there. The salmon sashimi was fresh. There’s parking behind the store, it was quite when we came so easy to park.

Odori has BY FAR the best quality-to-price ratio of any sushi place I’ve been to anywhere. Their 10p chef’s choice sushi is an absolute favorite of mine - the quality of the fish totally rivals what you could find at a high-end restaurant, but at...Read More
