Came here after the day of the child event. The place only had 1 table taken when we arrived. The Lemon role is so good! The portion of edamae was good. Service was slow. Waited over 10 min for 2 roles after everyone else at our table was served. As more people came in the slower our service was. To top it off when we were paying the server added a 20% service charge that we were not told about prior. I disputed it, and the manager did remove it. Good food, but will not be going back. I don't appreciate hidden fees and attitude from the server.

Used to be a better place to eat before. Had three rolls and only one was fresh. The other ones tasted old. Service is still good. But unfortunately the food is not.

Came for dinner on a Wednesday Night and it was slow with about 20 % of the tables taken. Nice service, very polite.We ordered edamame to start, and they give you A LOT, and it's in a deep dish plate so all the sauce is there for you to redip some edamame if want.For rolls, we got the Anaheim -- this was alright, classic roll to balance out the Taco Mexicano which was such a fun surprise! Honestly, you should go to try this roll, they NAILED the taste, my brain did not know it was eating sushi because it tasted like a taco but the best of both worlds!!We also got salmon nigiri to test out their fish and rice, and the fish was nice and fresh but their rice wasn't seasoned enough, rice was a bit hard.Overall will come back, to try a few rolls!

Waiter took our order and we waited an hour for our food to get served and it turned out the order was never placed. Waiters kept passing by including an instant in which one of the waiters asked the side tables if they needed everything and ours was skipped, maybe because we didn’t have food served, but either way I kept seeing that they would look over and no one approached us until about the hour. Sadly, I can’t even say it was packed as there was about 4-5 tables with customers. We ended up leaving. They need better attention to customers waiting for a long time. Hopefully this was just a one time occurrence as this place does have good sushi.

You ever go to a place for the first time and it's great! Then the next time it's like man what happened. Food was alright this time but the service was good still good. Pretty chill spot.

This is my daughter's favorite restaurant to eat at. She loves their lunch special teriyaki chicken. For $8.95 it's a great value and they have 4 other options. You get miso soup, 4 pieces of a Cali or spicy tuna roll, salad, steamed rice and your entree choice. Our only negative criticism is the salad. Eaten here numerous times and the salad is not that great. The dressing is gross and greens usually appear to be less than crisp. But everything else is top notch. And they don't charge extra for you to carry out your miso soup as with other Asian restaurants and sushi spots. THEIR SUSHI IS BOMB and they have a large selection as well.

Food was alright. The girl servers were kind and attentive. One member of the staff was passive aggressive and outright rude. I will not be returning because of my experience with this worker.

Had the 3/2/2 Shashimi combo.... Fish was quite salty.... Spicy edemami was good but overly sauscy, miso soup and saki were great. Price for what it was, was high IMO. Not sure that I will be back.
