I looked like a typical sushi place but I sat at the counter and turned out it’s like having an Omakase experience. (yes, the menu is pricey indeed, but for the quality I think it make sense). It very stood out that I can 100% tell the sashimi is better than a random sushi restaurant or Japanese supermarket.

If I could give more than five stars I would definitely do that! I don’t know why it’s taking us so long to try out this sushi place but it is absolutely the best in the area! Not only does it have a super cool vibe to the restaurant, the chefs are hilarious, but the food is on a different level! Every roll that we tried was so good! I can’t wait to go back to this restaurant!

They have a great happy hour. If you buy specialty rolls your bill goes up really fast, but they are delicious. I recommend, but I think part of the price is their close location to the beach.

Been here a few times, with friends. The friends have been dozens of times and whenever we are in town, we liked to go there. The last time, We walked in, they had all the customers in one small section, while the rest of the place was empty. What happened to social distancing? For the convenience of servers, I presume, they were lining tables up close to the sushi bar… to save steps maybe??? Anyway, We would have liked to have been seated separately, so we didn’t have to listen to the conversation at the table next to us (they were talking loud and the music was loud). Do you consider that maybe people go during the “less busy” hours because they don’t like crowds? The guy behind the bar came out (I’m guessing in is 50s or 60s, didn’t get his name), was “so-so” if I had to judge in friendliness… seemed like he was put out, having to leave the bar and come seat us (with literally 2 other parties at tables and no line)…gave us a few seating options and my friend questioned him about not allowing us to sit at a particular table. It was reserved. My friend didn’t understand that you could reserve a specific table. So she questioned why we couldn’t be seated at that empty one. Its an understandable misunderstanding (LOL), an opportunity to educate, since we didn’t know this was a thing… instead of patience and a gracious explanation, the guy just said “this isn’t going to work, I can’t make this work, I gave you choices.” (He said “no” to our inquiries about 3 different seating options) To be fair, my friend had come across as assertive, and was confused, but not rude at first, and the rest of us were pleasant and patient with the situation. There was no reason for him to be short or rude or anything but gracious. When my friend said “I’m going to tell all my friends not to come here,” he replied “Oh I’m so scared,” very sarcastically. I really couldn’t believe someone in a position of customer service would even have this as a response. I imagine the whole scene made the other customers uncomfortable. I give them credit for our prior experiences as I believe the food is good and they have a decent happy hour. Parking can be difficult, so plan ahead for driving around and paying metered parking.

Not a bad Sushi experience at all. Very friendly staff and some great dishes beyond the Sushi bar norm. There was a very strong variety of patrons both tourists and locals which was interesting to say the least. The way the location is branded and presented is definitely a win in its own right so enjoy your surroundings. The beach is just a few blocks away! #sushi

Loved the sushi and chill vibe. Blackened tuna was so great. I loved the sauce. The Late Night Hermosa roll has a delightfully amazing kick. I love that this place is locally owned also. Easily a new fave. ❤️

My hubby and I came here randomly and absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was upbeat and chic, but not too fancy (we are at the beach after all!). The sushi was good (yellowtail sashimi was ) and reasonably priced. There was a DJ too which made it even more fun. Sushi party? Sign me up!

1st of all I love this restaurant, 2nd of all I’m not a giant fan of sushi! Been here twice in the last 2 months for special occasions and all of the appetizers and entrees I’ve sampled have all been absolutely delicious. All of them were plated beautifully and photo ready lol. The staff is stellar! Attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the dishes to us which was very helpful. The restaurant is practically on the beach so it has that cool, casual beachy vibe while still maintaining it’s modern and trendy look. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. It’s perfect for date night, celebrations or just any time you want to have some good food. They also offer several dishes that are non sushi related a kids menu and have a full bar. (I got my 75 year old mom to do a sake bomb!) Also, there’s a public parking lot within walking distance if you’re not lucky enough to get a meter spot. Personally I can’t wait to go back!
