   Great establishment with straightforward staff and dishes turned around quickly. When it is busy, the atmosphere is great. Feels like a real Dublin institution and quite authentic, I would argue.

   Everything perfect, except the price which I understand it’s not your fault but yes everything was too expensive too. Agin 5 starts because quality costs money and rightly but also it has to be mentioned.

   The service was impeccable however did not enjoy the food but everyone else on my table did that’s all down to personal preference. The margarita drink was so so good

   The rolls where so big you can’t put them in your mouth - not traditional sushi at all. The food was fresh and well presented however and the service friendly.

   We were the last booking before closing and felt somewhat rushed. Don’t put 9:15 as a booking time, and then allow a 15-minute grace period, and then decide to close your door at 9:25. Food and drinks were quite expensive. Staff were good, just felt quite rushed, and didn’t get to enjoy the experience/food properly.

   Amazing dinner. Would highly recommend eating here. Sushi is excellent and I love the options of brown or white rice rolls. Service is fantastic. Food is excellent! We dined at top 3 restaurants in Dublin, and this was the best meal we had while there.

    We had not visited for a number of years but decided to try it as was near the location we were going to after our meal. Firstly service was good, welcoming & attentive served with a lovely smile! We ordered drinks, Glass white wine €11.50 and a Cocktail €15.50, a bit expensive as would expect a glass to cost €8 and cocktail, €12. However as we were out for the day, it was fine as we were only having the one! Starters super, Edamame & Dumplings, very tasty. Main courses ok, mine was prawns & black rice but a little salad or garnishing would have helped to make it less repetitive. The other two dishes were fine, very large portions which went down a treat. The main issue was ordering - once ordered, starters arrived like lightning. Main courses arrived before finishing the starters. Felt everything was rushed, felt I was on a conveyor belt, to drink, eat and go. Would have preferred more time to just relax and not be rushed. No ambience at all. Great place if you want to eat and go, for a relaxed meal and take time out - probably best to choose somewhere else. Meal cost just under €100 which is quite pricey for 2 Starters, 3 Mains, 2 Alcohol Drinks and 1 Soft Drink.
