Very popular place, we arrived at 5:30 on Monday and they had almost a full seating. The rolls are average in quality, falling apart when you eat them, but the fish is fresh. I don't recommend the seafood soba, I didn't like it. The staff...Read More

They have awesome happy hour every day 3-6pm and 8:00-close. Everything on the HH menu is basically under $10 - even my delicious sake cocktail. Their salmon crunch roll and Laker roll (basically its a jalapeno popper made into a sushi roll- even has raw...Read More

Atrocious & rude service. Server decided to instruct us on why we rejected their ice tea, "because it's not sweet", - "No, because it's terrible." - half of our meal came out 10min before the 2nd half, and it was the simpler of the two...Read More
