"I have not been to other sushi restaurants in Anchorage but this review is compared to other sushi restaurants I have been to outside of Japan. We had the following: Fresh oysters: fresh and tasty with ponzu sauce. sashimi omakase fish was fresh and tasty. The type of fish offered is normal nothing outstanding. Cuts were large compared to most other places, and price was reasonable. It came with a crispy roll. Ok, nothing to get excited over but not bad. We had sushi rice to go with sashimi, but the sushi rice was disappointing... Dry and not tasty. Sukiyaki: this was the most disappointing dish of the night. Not only was the soup not tasty, but the ingredients were off... Bean sprouts and wood fungus in sukiyaki? Tofu was not silken but medium firmness. Missing the raw egg to go along, and the garnishing on the sukiyaki was missing. Large pot though, and the two of us couldn 't finish it. Service was courteous although our server didn 't know the menu in detail. Overall decor of the restaurant is pleasant/subdued but not entirely Japanese. Overall, it 's OK but not 4.5* IMO"
