I won't be returning due to the poor service. The waitress/cashier with short hair seemed to have an unwelcoming attitude towards customers.

Was going well until they decided to do last call at 8 pm and not tell anyone…so we were halfway through our meal and then got cut off.

Good tasty food! Our server was awesome! He let us know that a large group had just ordered a bunch of rolls. So, we changed our orders to beef and chicken bento boxes because we were short on time.

Great sushi at a fair price. Ordered the Kubo, Orange Blossom, Spicy Unagi, Tiger, and White Dragon. The Tiger was my favorite, a very well balanced roll with the perfect amount of spice. Photographed are the CA roll and Kubo, Tiger, and Orange Blossom rolls. Will definitely visit again to bring friends and family when I’m showing people around the area!

Worst. The udon was very salty, the waiter knows nothing about the ingredients and impolite, and menu is pricey. Avoid if you can .

Great sushi and other yami things in a family restaurant. Try the eel with cheese!

Small place but it's very nice. You can watch them make your sushi. Sushi there is top notch. I recommend getting at least one hand roll. If you go as a group of 4 or more you can make reservations.Parking: Very busy strip and not a lot of parking for how busy it gets.

I was pretty impressed with their rolls, and they're really reasonably priced for bay area. We went with a group of 8 so we ordered a whole bunch of rolls, as well as chicken udon and tonkotsu, and shared. I didn't try the tonkotsu but the udon was good, pretty standard. The rolls were beautiful, fresh, and nicely balanced - my favourites were Lady in Red and 007. Personally, I didn't like that the Green Dragon had pesto, that threw me off. Unfortunately, we were all so hungry I forgot to take pictures. They charge a gratuity of 20% for large groups (6+), but the total after everything came out to under $35 per person and we were fairly stuffed. I would definitely go back, might be my new favourite sushi spot ?.
