By far the best sushi I've ever had. Just moved to the area and have tried a couple sushi places and this one blew the others out of the water. If I could add more than five stars I would

We weren't in a sushi mood, but this place was right next to the crepe place which ended up being closed, so we gave it a try. No wait and nice and warm inside! There was only one guy working there - he took our order, made it, and brought it to us! Everything was fresh and the atmosphere was nice. I got the dream roll (which was a bit bland, but good with soy sauce) and avocado salad (krab and an entire avocado served in vinegar) - the avocado was good that way, but I didn't think much of the krab paired with vinegar. He got a Dancing roll (spicy tuna, spicy salmon, spicy crab meat, and avocado - deep fried) and enjoyed it very much. We also got a slice of cheesecake on the house! We were stuffed and had plenty of time to make it to our 7:30pm show after the dinner. It looked like this place made most of it's money with grub-hub (etc.) orders, but it's not a bad place to dine in with friends either.

The atmosphere here is cozy, the staff here are all nice and attentive. The food is delicious and they always give our table extra goodies when we dine in,like a small plate edamame and/or little cheesecake bites. I highly recommend this cozy dining experience.Dietary restrictions: They are aware of the gluten-free diet and have a few gluten free options.

Can't rate the food... they wouldn't come to the door. Sign says open. Website says open. Google says open. Hours on door says open. No answer at door and no answer on phone. Sad.

You pay for what you get, gets on the expensive side but the food is so good. You are always taken care of, and they serve small cheesecake on the house.

Best sushi in the area, yes I've been to all of them. The sushi is authentic as it gets and scenery quite nice.

Liked the edamame more than I liked the eel roll. Sushi was way too warm and mushy.

Never got to try the food.Came in around 5PM on a Tuesday, it was only me and another person who was already eating in the restaurant. Sat down for less than 5 minutes looking at the menu, then continued sitting for 10 more minutes while the host was still head in his phone for the entire 15 minutes. No drinks, no questions, didn't budge at all. So took my money somewhere else.

Top notch , definitely satisfied my sushi cravings. Juicy , fresh, and fulfilling . For just one employee he's doing a great job !

Great for quick lunch. Very speedy seeing. Restaurant space is tight (& warm) for eat-in. Prefer takeout. Food is delicious.
The best value sushi restaurant in downtown Norfolk. Can't go wrong here.

I've ordered from here twice and the sushi is great, but each time I've tried to order shumai, they don't put it in the order. I don't know if they're out, or can't make it. Instead, they put a piece of cheesecake and label it "on the house", even though they're still charging me $9 for the shumai...

Was not impressed and will skip it next time. Ordered 3 rolls, a salad, and edamame which was delivered. When it arrived, nothing seemed fresh. The rice was hard, the fish ginger, and wasabi was dry (the wasabi ball was hard as a rock and wouldn't dissolve in soy sauce). Only ate s*** 1/2 the food and threw the rest out. It just wasn't good. We were really looking forward to this place, but overall it was a bust. We won't be going back and don't recommend it.

First time trying this place Good price, and the on the house cheesecake was delicious Sushi was good . Edamame was lacking but it might be because my door dasher couldn't find the restaraunt for 30 minutesso things werent as fresh

I wanted to call ahead and pay with cash, but I guess they refused to answer calls to take any phone orders. So I went ahead and ordered online. I ordered two special rolls. The Yama sushi and Hawaiian roll. I wasn't a fan of the Yama but the Hawaiian is delicious! Just wish they had a spicy version. Maybe they do, I just saw photos so I went with that. Thanks to all the Yelpers on posting what they ordered. I'm all about the wow photo factor. I'll try other items in the future, just wanted to share what I had. Cheers
