Super friendly staff, I mean really friendly and polite.  The sushi is competent and the prices are not bad (we had a specialty roll, three regular maki rolls and two miso soups for $24 incl tax -- enough to feed two people very well).  They have an…More »

This is sub-par sushi.  It's rolled by machine.  And over the past 3 years, the prices have been rising steadily to the point where it isn't even a deal anymore.  I've also noticed the quality degrading rapidly.  They even give you less ginger and…More »
