I’ve been disappointed by some other sushi in the area when we moved from NYC but this place holds it own with quality restaurants in the city.“

“Can't say enough good things about this place. The service is friendly and attentive. The ambiance is cozy and attractive. The prices are very fair. And the food is AMAZING- last time we had the most beautiful literal bamboo BOAT of sushi and it was so fresh and beautifully presented. I've been there for lunch and dinner and will continue to return every time I get a sushi craving. The lunch specials are very reasonable as well!Last time we got a free mochi green tea ice cream as well and it was delicious!“

“We loved our dinner here, the service was excellent (friendly, unobtrusive, someone always present when you needed anything). Ordered a recommended bottle of cold saki and it was perfect. Didn't order any sashimi, but found every roll (mostly raw) to be generous with fish and avocado, the sauces to be well seasoned (vs overly sweet or mayo-y). We ordered a lot, including pepper tuna which was different (lightly pepper seared tuna served over seaweed salad) and really good. Compared to other places of similar quality, this is also the most reasonably priced sushi we have had in the last 3 years. Definitely going back when in area.“
