I've only been here once, but I was very pleased! I thought the ambiance was nice--not extremely fancy but seemed clean and bright. I was a little hesitant towards ordering Vietnamese pho (rice noodle) at first since it's a Japanese restaurant with Chinese elements, but the pho was actually really good! Broth was very flavorful, beef was nice and tender and they gave a good amount of it, and there were a lot of noodles which I love!! Only thing is that the bean sprouts and the basil was not as fresh as I prefer, but otherwise it was really good. And o another thing I loved was that they had bigggg portions so I felt super satisfied but if you have a smaller appetite that might be something to be prepared for. And I think service was good too so overall I had a great experience :)

My friends and I came here over the weekend and it was amazing! I already loved them from the takeout I would get, but the in store service is amazing! One of my friends is vegetarian and there were plenty of options for her to choose from. The waitress was super kind and we could tell she also loved the food here! This is my go to sushi spot! Highly Recommend!

We were in the area looking for a place to have dinner. Thought this might be a hole in the wall place, but it was far from it! The interior was very nice and the chairs were fancy. We felt a little under dressed walking into the place (business casual or black tie would have been more appropriate). Prices were very reasonable. The portion sizes were very generous. The food was delicious! This would be a great spot for a dinner date, casual business, or fun outting with friends. Will be coming back when we are in town. We'll dress up next time ;)

There's no way this place is 4 stars. They must have their friends filling out fake reviews. We just went there and literally had the worst sushi experience ever. What went bad: Decor is depressing Tables have clear plastic over ugly table cloths. Plastic is sticky and gross to be eating on. Chairs are shaped in a way that force your shoulders forward and it's uncomfortable. I'm an average size guy so not sure why the chairs are designed this way. The sushi itself is gross Ginger was hard and old tasting Wasabi seems squeezed from a tube Chopstick were the cheap wood kind in paper sleeves like you would have for takeout We asked for a tea refill and instead of serving from a tea pot they took our glasses away and bright then back with no regard for who's cup was who's When the sushi came they didn't bring plates or a small bowl for the soy sauce. They then dropped off small plastic disposable cups for the soy sauce. When we asked for soy sauce plates like the table next to us they seemed annoyed and took 5 min to bring them while our 4 month old sushi expired in front of us. All of the servers seemed very unhappy to work there and treated their customers badly The sushi "bar" has been converted to a takeout station. It's pretty sad that you can't sit at the bar and watch them make sushi but maybe they don't want you to see how bad their prep is. What went right: There was ample parking outside. They need to send health inspectors here ASAP.

To start there is absolutely no way this place is 4 stars. Came here for sushi because everything else was closed for easter and I am extremely disappointed. The restaurant is ugly and poorly designed it almost looks like they salvaged furniture from whatever they could get their hands on. (The tables were covered in plastic, the coverings were straight out of an elementary school cafeteria, and the chairs belong in a living room.) The food was bland and un-authentic not to mention they ran out of clean soy sauce containers even though the restaurant was empty. The ginger also tasted a week old. The bathroom was dirty and there was a can of trash right next to the toilet. If that wasn't enough they couldn't even bother to put the soap in the metal dispenser and left the plastic container out on the sink. Even the waiters had a look of disappointment about their jobs as they served customers. I hope this restaurant reads this and takes action!

Bad food, bad service, needs cleaning up, air conditioning was too loud and sounded like it needed to be serviced or replaced.

No smiles. Ordered the Family Boat which is the largest combo. Don't think it will serve a family unless yours is a 1 or 2 person family. The diced cucumber garnish looked water logged and tasted soapy. Sushi 1 star: no taste. Tuna was red dyed. They should have used the orange dye on the salmon since it had a grayish tone. Sashimi 1 star: same comment as sushi. Cut roll 3.5 star: I recommend you stick with the cut rolls since they have much more flavor from the additional ingredients. Miso ramen 2 star: Soup did not taste like miso. Didn't taste like much of anything and had a slight sour taste. Noodles were acceptable. Tonkatsu ramen 3.5 star: much better flavor but slightly salty. The salt might have been the flavor. Without it, it may not have had much flavor. Service 2 star: It's not that the employees were rude, they just didn't seem happy to have customers. Table, chair and floor had noodles left on them. Not a smile Not a thank you Not a good bye Cashier/host didn't even look up as we left. Overall ambiance and experience: 2 star
Great food great deal. I suggest they clean it yp there.

This sushi was nasty. Not good at all. We told the waitress and she spoke to the owner and we could see them talking. He looks at the sushi and tells the waitress to tell us nothing was wrong with it. We won’t be back. Worst sushi ever!

The prices are really great for what you get! Not my favorite ramen in the world, but the hibachi and sushi are very good!

Having lived in Hawaii for three years, it was painful picking my favorite sushi place in town being so far from the ocean. I've come to terms with the fact that I'm probably gonna have to eat sashimi that is thawed and I'm OK with that now as long as it's still good quality and as fresh as it can be. My kids and I, who are also sushi obsessed, have decided this is our favorite sushi restaurant in town. (My Thai second) We have definitely tried lots of the others out. We usually come during the happy hour time because my kids typically just like edamame, potstickers, & a simple salmon roll. I love getting the avocado salad (dressing is delicious.) then I either get the tuna Tataki or a fancy larger roll depending on how hungry I am. My only complaint is I used to get the hot sake until I realized they warmed it up in the microwave and that was a bit of a turn off to me so now I just stick to water or a glass of wine. My favorite part about this location has been my servers. Both of my regular servers were extremely hospitable and friendly and consistently delivered great service. There is ample parking. Other guests coming in for teriyaki grill items seemed very content also.
