"Went here with some friends for dinner the other night, was excited for some prime quality sushi. We got there around 6:30 PM and the place was completely empty. It was eerily quiet and downright awkward the entire meal. The sushi chef (very sweet man, quite old but still going! listed some items he recommended we try. We liked this...until he ended up listing EVERY ITEM on the menu, huh??? Anyways, the sushi was good, nothing spectacular though. For the price, it is certainly not worth it. They were also out of 50% of the niche fish options that we wanted to order... Wouldn't go back for $10-$15 per PIECE of nigiri..."

"Amazing. I walked in and asked to be seated at the sushi counter. They abruptly told me that there is a food minimum. I wasn't too concerned but still is was awkward at first. Anyway all great after there. I began with a salad. We all know he generic ginger dressing at all sushi restaurants, I kinda like it. This was an amazing salad. Simple but the finger dressing wasn't the one aforementioned. Clearly house made and delicious. Spicy yet not overpowering. Then began the sushi. I told the sushi chef that I was hungry but would defer judgement to him. And that I liked everything. He began with sashimi and then sushi. Everything was delicious. From the blue fin tuna tasting to the mackerel and sardines and everything in between. I usually don't love raw shrimp but this one was amazing. He showed me how to open the head to expose the meat which was by far the best part. The uni was also out of control. I finished off my meal with a molten chocolate dessert. At that point I hadn't ever seen a menu and as I just stepped of the street I had no pre knowledge about any prices. I'll cut to the chase. It wasn't cheap. The bill shocked me a little. I spent $186 with tip. Worth it? Not sure. I don't regret it for one second. The sushi chef clearly enjoys what he does and that spills over to my enjoyment. Will I be back? Probably but for a more special occasion not simply a sushi fix. Thank you for a great meal!"
