Jose Iraolagoitia
This is my new favorite place. The quality of the sushi is well above the other local restaurants. The price of the food reflects the quality. Great service. Full bar.

Dohyup Kim
The food was great. It’s not always possible to get good sushi around here, especially we are far from ocean and in the area with not much of Asian population. However, we were surprised by the quality of their food. The nigiri were great.

We had our anniversary dinner here and had a great time with great food and drink! It was a little hot inside, but everything else made up for it. The waitress was extremely friendly and attentive. All of our food tasted amazing!

Caitlin Gilchrist
Love this place. The food is delicious and the servers are kind and attentive. The restaurant is very cute, with both western style seating and traditional Japanese low tables. The hotpot is to die for, but the other entrées and sushi have never disappointed, either. Definitely recommend either the ramen or the hotpot with duck! They’ve recently added a wider range of desserts as well, all of which sounded great.

I really enjoyed this place. The staff was very attentive. They have a lot of authentic Japanese dishes. Very cozy and quiet; nice dating spot. My tempura dinner was perfect but my husband was not as pleased with his chicken dish. The tuna roll was fine but nothing special . Overall, would recommend.

Fabulous authentic Japanese restaurant tucked into the perfect spot in Montgomery. We reserved a private Tatami room for a special occasion. We needed to order a minimum of $100, which was a not difficult for our family.The service and food was all fantastic! From the appetizers to the dessert every single dish was delicious!

This is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever eaten at. Truly authentic, even down to REAL hot ginger tea.

It is average. Sushi is fresh. Ramen broth is creamy, noodles are chewy, pork is kind of dry.
