This is my go to sushi spot
The fish here is always fresh and the portion sizes are really good.

There is a  nice fish to rice ratio on the rolls, and the rice is not overly packed.
All of the fish I have had here is very good, my favorites are the wild…More »

One of my favorite sushi places for a takeout lunch.

This is one of the most authentic places around the area IMO.
They usually have a special Chirashi which is a very good deal (under $10 usually)
It has been difficult for me to find Hamachi in the…More »

The fish is fresh, there are a lot of intense sushi rolls.

I would recommend this place for someone who likes the 'creative' kind if sushi rolls, there is a humongous menu full of them.
They have a wasabi tobiko that is quite good.

The fish as a stand…More »

I really enjoyed the sunomono salad with clam.
The fish I ordered was decent but nothing memorable.

I might try this place again because it's close to home, but it wasn't very memorable the first time.

Based on sushi only.

This place is generally overpriced, and generic.
You pay more obviously because it's a sit down restaurant and it's in the entertainment dist. It wasn't like BAD but I won't go back again.

Could this place try any harder?  

More focused on atmosphere than anything else, the vibe is very trendy. I can see why a lot of people would like it as a date kind of place but if your looking for some good raw fish go elsewhere.

I had a nice…More »
