Customer Reviews

"My husband and I had such a lovely dinner experience here. The food was absolutely delicious, and the chef was not only talented but also incredibly warm and friendly. The entire staff made us feel so welcome - cheerful, attentive, and genuinely kind. It's the perfect spot for a cozy date night or a fun evening out with the whole family. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to our next visit!"

"Our chef has only been cooking for a few years and I must say he did a good job. The steak and lobster was cooked as requested. The rice and veggie portions were generous. When he went to toss broccoli to the customers, I declined and he was cool about it and didn't toss it to me. I appreciate that."

- R K.

"We had the chicken teriyaki bento box with assorted tempura, California roll and shrimp shumai. Also had the sushi sampler and eel roll with cucumber and avocado. Also had onion soup and miso. For dessert we had mango and matcha mochi ice cream.All very tasty. But the service was quite slow, and it wasn't busy."

- Lynn A.

"We went here for a birthday celebration and had a great time. I really appreciated their ability to accommodate me as a guest due to my shellfish allergy. They took it very seriously. The chef cooked my food before he cooked the shrimp so there was no cross contamination."

- Shelia G.

"We went to dinner for our Anniversary and the staff was wonderful!! Very friendly and attentive. The food and drinks were beautiful and amazing!"

- Melissa L.

"Amazing food. The Chef was so welcoming & humorous. Great service. Our server gave us some great recommendations. Would definitely come again if we ever make a trip out here again. I fell in love with their sushi "

- Mayra D.

"Go for the show. Everything is delicious. However, we arrived and ran into 4 friends outside, went in and seated together. They now charge an imposed tip for "parties of 6 or more"? I usually tip well if the service is even halfway decent, especially here as the service is excellent. If they had left the tipping option to me, it would have been considerably larger than what they auto-added to our bill, and I'll never go back."
