Had a wonderful experience here today. We got all sorts of sushi rolls, mango, unagi, mt benson, etc. My friend had a bunch of sashimi and loved it. The rolls were a mixture of small and tight and larger.The servers were fantastic. Honestly, can’t say enough to emphasize how awesome this place is.

We had an incredible dinner here with our three kids. The only reason why we don't have photos to post is because we ate the amazing meal too quickly. Our kids tried new things and loved all of it.

Ordered the Kalbi Lunch Box expecting a good rib dinner but was VERY disappointed to see only three small slices of rib in the box. What is going on here? The rib is the feature portion of the box and the quantity should reflect that. I expect at least 6 slices of that size. I suggest the owners or management review their menu and decide what constitutes a REAL serving. Having been to Korea I know they do not go shy on the meat portion. You won't lose money folks! 6 slices will improve this menu item.The good thing is, is that everything I've eaten at this restaurant is excellent. Flavour is not the issue. Our dollars are stretched enough and it would be nice once in a while to get some value. For that price there better be more rib!!!!

Super delicious food and nice staff. It’s one my top list Japanese restaurant. It’s possible to park car in front the restaurant. Here is possible to buy a ready made bento with fair prices. I really recommend ?

I ordered take out with a sushi platter and beef yaki udon. I was given the bag horizontally with the udon stacked on top of the platter. Turns out the beef yaki udon was leaking out of its cardboard box and broke through the bag leaving a big mess in my car and on my poor father’s lap. So frustrating and disappointed

Nanaimo has a lot of amazing sushi restaurants. However, this place rocked it. Affordable, unique, great atmosphere, wonderful staff, and the sushi and sashimi was such quality. We will be back again and again.

1st time getting a take out here. Sashimi was fresh and prawn tempura was very good. Sadly the browser scallop roll ( from the chef's specialty list) smelled a bit off and questionable. My husband stopped eating it after one. I wonder if the ingredients used were in the roll were fresh, the scallops pieces on top were good. A tad disappointed here. I was offered a tea while waiting for the order, well appreciated.
