I took the salmon one & the miso beef one, to my sad surprise inside the salmon one there was only salmon with spiced mayo, it just simply misses flavors, the rice was smooth & the nori was crunchy (wich is just perfect), some green onions & some sesame inside would have been just the little kick it needed, same for the beef one,

the staff was really friendly & cool, really good service

Absolutely loved my experience here. The sushi was incredibly fresh & beautifully presented - every piece felt like it was made with real care. The rolls were flavorful & well-balanced, not overloaded with rice like many other places. The staff were kind, attentive, & made great recommendations. The atmosphere was calm & welcoming, perfect for both a casual meal or a special night out. If you're a sushi lover, this spot is definitely worth visiting.

My first time in this chain. The staff was courteous & service was great.
I ordered the crispy chicken onigiri.
It had a good size. Taste was good, a bit spicy. Rice & nori had good taste & texture. However, concerning the crispy chicken, batter was not crunchy, the meat was a bit hard & there weren't much meat.
It had too much rice, in my opinion. So overall, it felt dry in my mouth. Fortunately, there was lemon water (& plain) to help quench my thirst.
Hopefully, the other flavours are more balanced in texture & ingredients.

Les onigiri sont bien garnis, mais la garniture n'est pas très bien assaisonnée (saumon & thon crus). Mais le plus terrible, c'est que le riz est tellement chaud que l'algue est toute molle. Il me semble que le croustillant fait partie intégrante de l'expérience de l'onigiri...
