Food is good...management not accommodating as the PV location.

This place is such a good neighborhood type of restaurant. The atmosphere is laid-back and great to chill with friends or a date. We went during the 2nd happy hour of the day. The food tasted fresh and the service was top notch! Jessica our server was the best! This was our first time here and will return again soon.

Love this local spot. New menu is amazing!! Always great for sushi and really good simple hot pot. Perfect neighborhood vibe and really lovely staff. Great place to bring friends and family. P.s. the bar in the back is great for when the restaurant is full!

Our waiter was great, he suggested a beer (cas) it was very nice. I can't remember his name but he made us feel at home. The food was great. We can't wait to go back.

This place is cute. Nice to have a late night sushi spot. Ordered a hot sake and the bartender never asked which size so I guess I got a small. She kept giving me weird looks but whatever the food was decent.

Ok second time ordering to go. Leaving the gym I wanted to try this place many times. First take out I got the short rib plate. Taste great but very little portion for $18. Ordered again tonight and less food than previously. Wanted to give them a try again cuz it did taste good but felt like I ordered a kids plate. So yea won’t be ordering from this place ever again. Sad cuz it’s so convenient.

Gave me food poisoning. 😔

The food was ALL too salty. We tried the Agedashi tofu, shishito peppers, chicken skewer, chicken karaage, miso soup, the grilled chicken entree - too much salt. The bulgogi did not have much flavor. It was also very loud inside and the lighting too dim. With that said, the server was friendly. So I’m bummed to give this place a bad review. It would be better to have salt and pepper shakers on the table and cut the salt in half on the dishes.

What a fun place with an amazing menu! Hot pots were an excellent value. I recommend the chicken coconut curry—enough for 3 people. We all left with leftovers and meal costs in the $20 range.

Kid-friendliness: Not really the kind of place you would take a chicken fingers/ Mac and cheese kid.

This is probably the worst Japanese food I’ve ever had. The sashimi wasn’t fresh, lacking the firm texture and rich flavor I expected. The miso soup tasted like something out of a cup noodle packet, watered down and lacking depth. The sake bomb was certainly an experience, but not in a good way—the flavors just didn’t blend well. That said, the service was excellent. The staff was attentive and friendly, which made the overall experience more pleasant. Despite the disappointing food, I still left a tip to appreciate their great service.
