Honestly the food was disgusting. But completely wrong… what kind of sushi restaurant cuts fish lengthwise and uneven?!Fish itself was tough and chewy.

Went here on Valentine’s Day and was served slightly warm sushi, I ate it against my better judgement and had terrible food poisoning for the next 48 hours. Definitely never going here again.

A quiet neighborhood spot. The service is excellent, the space is compact and cosy. We normally sit at the bar and order the specials. The sushi quality is variable. At times excellent and at times the rice is not as it should be. It isn’t crazy priced unlike some sushi places - For the price, it’s excellent!

Love this spot. The staff are very courteous and the fish is great quality, no frills and no mayo sauces. I always spend more than intended because it’s so good. I especially love the kanpachi (amber jack) and agedashi tofu.

They didn't have the option for bento boxes for dinner (Or at least, not in the menu), so I ordered a Tempura dinner with a side of Sashimi. The pieces of Sashimi were tiny, but the Tempura plate was huge (for two people easily). Flavor was good.The bill was very expensive for this unbalanced meal.You can tell is a very authentic Japanese restaurant, but they still don't have the right idea about what locals expect as "normal" portions.

Reviews did not match what we experienced. We were seated quickly for dinner. And there were a steady stream of customers. Very disappointed with sushi rolls and the apps. Sushi rice did not taste seasoned and texture was off. I'd come back for the udon, everything else was meh.

The owner Mr Baba took good care of us. Had Gyozas , Agadashi Tofu, Dragon Rolls and Spice eel and
Wow - really bad. We ordered two of the $21 king crab rolls, chicken yakitori, gyoza, and beef teriyaki, totaling $101. The crab rolls had nearly NO crab in them. Some pieces did not have a single piece of crab in it and it had to eat it with my hands since they fell apart immediately. The yakitori tasted like pork…. And the gyoza were pan fried but limp and soggy. Horrible and angering.

Three stars is pretty good considering the competition. Cuts are not huge, but decent.. freshness and taste are good. This would be an excellent regular spot for some relaxed sushi dinner with friends. Excellent service was friendly as well.

Sushi was pretty good. Fish tasted fresh. Prices were not outrageous.

Small restaurant, but great food and service. Prices are not cheap but not super expensive either. We go there often and will continue to do so. Our favorite sushi place in downtown Palo Alto.

Ordered some really simple dishes including Kappa Roll, which started falling apart as I went to pick it up with my chopsticks, the Niku Udon was good. The sukiyaki beef felt old and maybe a little overcooked but the rest of the noodle bowl was decent.
