Low key atmosphere, friendly staff and the food was outstanding. What more could you ask for. Great Korean dishes too.

Went for ramen and realized they served instant ramen instead of handmade fresh ramen. Not a fan

FINALLY! A place that knows what I mean when I say extra spicy! Everywhere I go I ask for extra spicy or 5 stars and I get food with the spice of a jalapeño. This place actually did it and the teriyaki is delicious! Thank you! 🙏🏻

We had a female server and I went to order a bento box, but asked to sub the tuna for an extra Cali roll as I’m pregnant and can’t have tuna. She then laughs in my face and says “well maybe you should get something else” I was jaw dropped. Just asked to swap one ingredient… was so rude. Then seen another lady have to leave in a rush due to her grandma having a seizure and they ripped them off and just didn’t care for anyone or anything. Just money. Granted it’s a business but holy cow I have never received this service here at all until today. The server was then pointing at us then gossiping with her coworker and being so unprofessional. When all we did was ask for a swap of fish. Crazy. Food was great tho

It's been a few days and I can't shake the feeling of being ripped off by this place. The atmosphere was weird with cheesy RGB lighting everywhere, a bubble wall and a self playing (clunky) piano. The sushi rolls were gross; mushy rice, overly sweet, very little actual sushi flavor. No low sodium soy option. Service was awkward and pushy. They must have asked for our order 3 times while we were looking over the menu and enjoying each other's company. Not nearly worth $145 (including tip). Poor experience for that kind of money. Do not recommend.

Good large portioned servings, all in all worth a try with sushi chefs on the stand by. Good spices a bit on the pricey side

The atmosphere is great with the bubble wall and player piano, etc. The bathrooms are clean. The seating is comfortable and adjustable. We have come here many many times since they opened. They had been our favorite sushi place in town. Toyko Express was another favorite before they sadly closed. However, our last two experiences were not the best, and we will be giving our future business to others: Ninja, Aijimi, Irashai, Seoul Gate...and so many more options in our little town! We are going to have a great time not returning here, so good luck, Kanpai.
We had 14 people for a Mother’s Day dinner and we were in and out in less than an hour! Absolute amazing food and service and the atmosphere was inviting and elegant. 10/10 recommend!

Great atmosphere. Friendly chef master. Beautiful food!
My family and I came in a big group about 20+ people. The staff here were so fast with getting each of our orders, making sure it was right and that we got all we needed. The guy that took our orders was very nice as well. Definitely recommend and the food was good too! 🙂
I had fried gyoza and combo Yakisoba noodles. The beef was shredded thin and very dry, i had maybe 3 teeny tiny shrimp(underscore teeny tiny) in the entire dish and they were dry, the chicken was okay some were dry but most were good and over all the flavor was very bland. My meal i give 2 stars. My husband got two rolls which were very good but we had to ask for wasabi and ginger. I thought that was weird. The gyoza was mostly veggies with hardly any pork at all which was very different than I’m used to for this appetizer. The atmosphere is very nice and service was good. It wasn’t busy at all when we went on a Monday at about 5pm.
Sushi was amazing! Got the sweetheart role and the plate presentation was BEAUTIFUL! Made the plate just pop and add to the ambience. The dynamite role was seasoned to perfection not drowned in sauce and just the right crunch! Server Kate was so sweet and to round it off soft piano music to make the whole experience just wonderful!
Wow what a delicious experience! This is a more upscale Japanese restaurant with an assortment of delicious options. The crispy fried salmon skin salad is an absolute must! And I was so excited to see they have takoyaki. Great atmosphere, quiet for having conversations, and very high quality food.
