The atmosphere is a little off. The staff is friendly, but aside from that, the sushi and pizza we ordered did not taste good to me. However, if you do go, the Crab Rangoon was delicious!

I was very surprised and happy with this place. All we bought was sushi and, honestly, not much more was needed. The variety was amazing and they had seasonal options, which made me beyond happy because it included musubi, which I haven’t seen so far inland. The dessert sushi was tasty too. The ONLY “complaint” I had was the fact that the green tea we received was Tazo tea. I’ve been used to macha tea from sushi places that it surprised me. Either way, we would come back to try their other items (like their ramen).

I worked for them for a month and they fired me with no other cause other than screwing me out of $700 in tips. The owner is classic for doing this. They also did it to my cousin who worked at sampson sprinkles. Then they waited a month to pay me. They ate thieves and their kitchen was disgusting. Dont eat there.

NOT DoorDash affiliated, so estimated times and menu items can be incorrect. The staff was helpful to explain this to me when I called to see why my order was late.

I love that Belvidere has new places popping up downtown. The Shortline is absolutely adorable. The style makes you feel like you’re somewhere else, and it’s very modern and tasteful. My family and I sat outside because it was a beautiful day and the patio was very pleasing. This would be a great place for a date, lunch or dinner. The selection of food was wide yet familiar. And the food itself was delicious. My “picky” eater finished her bento box no problem. I cannot wait to go back many times to try the rest of the menu!

The food is terrible. Might as well make the drive to spider sushi for some better food. No table service and food is disgusting. Don’t normally write reviews but I just had to for this terrible restaurant.

Delicious, fresh food. Their menu explains exactly what you are getting – which is great for people who aren’t extremely familiar with sushi lingo.

It’s nice to see a local ethnic restaurant open in Belvidere since there is a paucity of them with the exception of Mexican cuisine. After walking in, I really appreciated the ambiance of the place. It is self-serve, but you can sit first and figure out what you’re going to have, which is great if you’re pressed for time. There is also a to-go case if you want to get something on the fly. Everything in the case is half-off after 7 PM!
