    Unbelievable experience! We're in from out of town for a soccer tourney. Our meal has to rank as one of the Top 2 sushi experiences we've ever had! And, we've eaten sushi all over the world. We were talking about coming back, getting a hotel room JUST to come back to eat here, it was that good! I love uni, and the uni shooter is phenomenal! I can go on and on.... amazing!!!

    Sushi was great, but drinks were wildly overpriced for how watery and weak they were. They also don’t do anything for birthdays, just a heads up for anyone looking to celebrate there!

    Our server Alexis was amazing and his recommendations were on point. We had the live uni and HANDS DOWN the best uni I’ve had. It was so clean tasting and sweet. I would recommend the exotic fish. All the fish was exceptional quality and fresh.

    Ordered the Waxing Gibbous and Hamachi Nigri. Both very good. We reserved a standard table but we ended up in a hi-top table with stools up against a mirrored wall. Awkward to stare at yourself while eating 😄 while your feet dangle. The sushi was worth the visit so we will probably dine there again.

    As always, this is the best sushi available anywhere. Their special rolls are delicious and unique. The Full Moon is my favorite. The Milky Way is also amazing. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Can’t wait to go back again.
