A really outstanding modern Japanese restaurant. Loved the Taco Balls and the Big Biss Roll. The Ankimo and Hamachi Kama were both new to us and a revelation. Can’t wait to sample the rest of their menu.

The sushi was good, really good. The starters were okay-ish (e.g. SHREK). Except for the HAMCHI TRUFFLE spoons – those were great. My recommendation: Don’t spend too much time on the drinks menu but order directly the warm house sake.

Awesome sushi experience! I have celiac disease, I told the server and she came back with another copy of the menu where she had annotated which items were gluten free and which ones could be made gluten free. This was so thoughtful and made me feel so comfortable and at ease with my allergy. The sushi was great and the service was wonderful. I recommend the hand rolls, which we’re $5 each before 7 pm! Looking forward to coming back soon 🙂

The sushi from this bar is simply the best in town. You won’t find better quality sushi anywhere else. The atmosphere is sophisticated and relaxing. It is the perfect place for a date night or special occasion. The sushi rolls are always so flavorful. You can taste the creativity and care put into each roll.

The restaurant has a happy vibe, our server was very patient and eagerly explained everything to us. The food was tasty and colorful. They also offer mochi ice cream for dessert which is not mentioned on the menu but you should go for it.

I’ve been to many sushi restaurants, but this one stands out for its exceptional quality and creativity. The sushi rolls are innovative and bursting with flavor, and the presentation is truly a work of art. The chefs clearly put a lot of thought and care into each dish, and it shows in the taste. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a sleek and modern design.

Came here with my friends for some sake! Our server Jenny was super helpful in guiding us through the menu and giving her thoughts on sake choices and making playful conversation with us. Moral of the story? Don’t go for the 1.8L sake bottle. There’s so many tastier and better bottle choices!

In town from the east coast and Nara was highly recommended and it did not disappoint. The Nigiri Omakasi was stellar, the service was exceptional and the Agedashi tofu was outstanding!

Quality sushi with a great atmosphere! I was really happy to find out they have a spicy tuna crispy rice dish, which is one of my absolute favorites. Theirs definitely impressed me. I got rolls this time around, but next time I want to try some of the nigiri. I was sitting at the bar and saw so many nigiri platters being made.
