I came here because it was recommended from a friend while mentioning my craving for sushi and I'm so glad she mentioned it because it was delicious! The restaurant is far larger than it appears from outside which was a great surprise and the staff were so kind and funny. I got the mango shrimp tempura rolls as well as shrimp tempura (buy one get one free I believe) and they were a hefty size and delicious! I ended with tempura cheesecake, which was also delicious. I was surprised by how few tables were taken but it allowed for some great one on one service from our waitress, I believe it was Pam! Shes great!!

Great tasting food, they had a lot of sushi options. I tried the Celebration roll and the Super California roll, and both were good. I also tried the steak and shrimp Hibachi plate, and it was great as well. The element and seating was set up as well and the servers were well mannered. Will go back again, and have no problem recommending to someone else.

Great deal! I went here for lunch with a couple of friends, and the service was phenomenal. While it did take a while to get the sushi out, the appetizers were fast and refillable, so no one went hungry.

Went here to try sushi for the first time, and it was an amazing experience! Had a lot of help and enjoyed the sushi buffet. A little pricey in the evenings rather than during lunch hours, but otherwise service and food were phenomenal, and I have gone back several times!

This has been our go-to spot for years! Very quiet environment. The booth are extremely private compared to most places, and my son has always loved the booths with recessed seating! Makes for a unique experience. The sushi is fresh and AMAZING. A mile long selection to choose from!

The food was very flavorful and the place is very accommodating. I went with a big group (about 10 people) on a Friday night and they were able to sit all of us in about 15-20 minutes which is impressive for how busy they are on the weekends! The menu has a lot of options so all 10 of us got something different and liked it a lot! I went with a simple hibachi chicken because when you see a good thing don’t pass it up!!

Love the all you can eat option for lunch. I'm able to mix up the different pieces of sushi and choose starters like soup and salad. Also I love the tempura veggies! The service has always been great.

Service is usually pretty slow. Food is usually pretty good. Once or twice we’ve gotten food that was not as good as usual but they are generally pretty consistent. Sometimes it feels a bit pricy compared to other places for similar food but I think it’s worth it. Good vegetarian and vegan options!

I've been here a handful of times for dinner, and have had a fairly similar experience every time. I pretty much always order Hibachi, and most of the people I go with tend to order sushi. The hibachi has always been really good, and fair in price in my opinion. It isn't much more than the smaller fast-food hibachi places in town, but the meat and vegetables used are noticeably better. From what I can tell their sushi is also good, although I haven't really sampled it much.I deduct one star just because the service can be a little slow depending on where you're sat. If you sit in one of the boxy booths in the back of the dining room it seems easy for the waitress to forget about you. All in all it isn't a huge problem though.In conclusion: Good restaurant, will continue going.

I am always impressed with the food when I come here. The entrance could use some work, but the food quality and portion size is amazing. I took my family here twice. Every time, I am amazed at the service, the staff, and the food. It is very rare for me to have left-overs when eating sushi. The pictures are a bento box, and some sushi my family shared.

The sushi is great, although it only has raw sushi, it has an all you can eat, and they don't give you a 9 piece roll.

Probably the best sushi in town with a great selection of other foods too. The bar is fully loaded featuring three or four beers on tap with a generous selection of bottles. The service is great along with the atmosphere and deco

The lunch Bento Box is a good size for middle of the day ... not too heavy. Liked the tempura except for the sweet potato...not an appropriate tempura vegetable, I'd say, just too mushy. Were they out of eggplant?On a more recent trip the chicken was like leather - too much trouble to eat! Sent it back but had to wait way too long for replacement shrimp.In all this place seems to have lost its edge , perhaps through lax management..Everything seemed a bit tired especially the food.Service semi -detached too. Not a good experience this time.

I just wish the sushi chef knew how to roll sushi lol. They always fall apart and sometimes when you get a roll and flip it over to check, they’re not even connected on the bottom making the fish fall out.

I've been twice. Went for the lunch sushi buffet and thought it was a fantastic meal. Service was a little slow but I wasn't in a rush, so it didn't take away from my experience. I wanted some of the specialty rolls that weren't included in the buffet so I went back last week for dinner. Fantastic Sashimi, Sushi rolls, and sides. Definitely going to be a regular.
