I have been coming here for years and everytime is more disappointing, and soon will stop coming. The mix and match menu is ok but the price increased and the portions got smaller. Used to be 1 order was 2 pieces of roll sushi, now it's 1. Any amount of leftovers even if you bring your own box, they want to charge $3 for.
Overall, the food tastes good and the portion sizes were decent. However, the udon portion is too small.
