I tipped a low amount because it’s all I can afford as a college student and the owner waited until my food was ice cold and my friend was finished eating to bring me a poor excuse for unraveled sushi and ramen. He yelled at me and acted insulted that I didn’t tip him for his unprofessional and childlike service. One star all around.

A hidden sushi gem for sure. Best part is it wasn’t crowded and they stayed open late just for us to finish our meal and talk. Felt really special. Sushi was good and fairly priced. Was impressed with the ngiri.

Doesn’t get any more authentic than this, felt like we were back in Japan. Everything was superb. Our new spot for real Japanese cuisine.

Horrible! Horrible! PLEAAAAASE STAY AWAY from this Horrible Place. We arrived at 4:15 pm ordered right away. Get this Ladies and Gents, my wife and I ordered TWO ITEMS, yes not 5, not 3…. TWO ITEMS… We didn’t order appetizers oh my goodness… and we waited for almost TWO HOURS and we left with our table and stomach still empty. Although we are pretty hungry, we like to give restaurants fair chance that’s why we waited but then when they don’t even check on you to make sure you’re okay or at least apologize for the wait we decided to leave.

Kuro is the chef and owner of this little jem, we believe he’s going on his 16th year. GOOD FOR HIM and his passion for putting art in creating beautiful sushi. The proportions of fish to rice is perfect. Remember going into some Sushi bars with 2/3 rice and the fish is cut paper thin for higher price because it’ some fancy deco. This is Kuro’s second home, rock n roll posters, great music and fresh fish. Orange Sunrise; creamy delicious quail eggs, salmon and smelt egg, melt in your mouth. El Fuegio is spicy, but not the hottest, just enough to make it one of our favorites. Rainbow Roll is a sampler of many different fresh fish and that’s the difference between other sushi bars, this fish is fresh and created with a passion. THANKS KURO for serving us for ten years. btw, he’s getting busier every month, so try to make it on Tuesday- Thursday if you don’t want to wait.

Best place for overall japanese cuisine. Sushi seems to be catered towards Japanese taste buds than American.

This place came recommended to my wife and I, so we popped in for lunch. First off, amazing cozy vibe with some great music and artwork adorning the dining area. Service was prompt and friendly, and the menu compact, yet with plenty variety. Our food arrived in a timely manner, and was absolutely a treasure – a perfect amount, and expertly prepared and displayed. The tuna was absolutely perfect, as was the shrimp, soup, and even salad. We will definitely be back!

Yum! Loved the chicken katsu curry. My wife got the karaage…never had this anywhere before so I don’t have anything to compare to but it sure was tasty. Also, unique & fun ambience with lots of pop culture art and eclectic music.
