I absolutely love when I have an excuse for work to come down to corpus Christi. Aka sushi downtown, is one of my favorite must-go places. These pictures speak for itself. The mouth watering sushi is just delicious and I love the atmosphere in the servers are excellent

Everything was absolutely delicious. The wait staff was polite and professional and the food was delicious. My BIGGEST CRITICISM is whatever you are playing on that TV near the kitchen needs to change!! Seeing ground meat being ground up IS NOT APPETIZING!! It looks absolutely disgusting!! Play scenes from Japan or something else but not food prep videos. We don’t want to see how the cow is butchered!! No need for that. Otherwise, I will go again! Great food! The house sake was great too!

Walked in to be greeted by a friendly host and once sat a woman came by which looked to be the owner but I’m not sure and she was very welcoming. I recommend a reservation but it was steady at the time so we were able to be sat. Everything was delightful and even the ambiance is beautiful. The servers name was Veronica and she was excellent. Definitely recommend.

I’m not from CC and I come here just for this place! The quality, attention to detail, balance of flavors, complexity yet simplicity, amazes me every time. If you’re a true sushi sashimi lover you absolutely must sit and enjoy the magic that appears before you from Jake! I’d go every week if I could. I’ve had some great sushi in my life and this is some of the best. Go, experience it for yourself and then tell your family and your friends!

Jay and the rest of the staff here were outstanding! So friendly and made me feel right at home! Jay specifically stood out as he taught me differences of fish, cuts and just educated me! Excellent job by the team! Also my roll was great!

Fun With Dad Andrew
The food is as excellent as the service. Very clean and inviting atmosphere and super friendly staff. The sushi took a little longer than normal to make but everything is premium seafood and worth the wait. Prices are very reasonable. I’ve paid double for sushi half as good in the past.

We loved the sushi! Everything was very delicious. Friendly service. Even though it was downtown, they had plenty of parking next to the restaurant.
