Absolutely loved everything about this sushi restaurant! Every dish we tried was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, & full of flavor. You can really see the care & quality in every plate.

A special thank you to the gentleman who took such amazing care of us , I believe he was the manager or possibly the owner. Even if he wasn't, he truly went above & beyond to make sure every customer was happy & comfortable. His kindness, attention, & service made our experience even more special.

Highly recommend this place, & we will definitely be coming back!

Excellente cuisine, prix raisonnables pour la qualité. On avait oublié de nous servir un plat de sashimi. Quand on l'a rappelé au serveur, il s'est excusé, nous a offert non seulement une consommation gratuite mais les sashimis également, ce qui était au-delà des attentes! Excellent service. Je recommande fortement cet établissement.

Very small portions, very large price. Spent a lot of money & walked out hungry. Also both got sick, me the same day in the evening, my guest the next day. Would not recommend & will not be going back. Service was also subpar; the waitress seemed bored & not helpful at all.

Very pretty place, nice for a lunch date for two or for dining alone. It does not have many seats for a large group. Selection on the menu seems varied. I did not try enough of the menu to give a accurate review about the food & I may not go back the service I received was disappointing. The waitress that served me was pretentious & just plain snooty. I would not recommend this restaurant alone based on her service. Instead of listening to what I was asking for she assumed I was trying to get discounts. Not cool. I would also like to say that if you are going to set up a menu include one that does not serve imitation crab.
