Atmosphere was great, but the service was terrible. I went there for lunch with my girlfriend, we didn't have a huge amount of time so we asked if we could be done in about 45 minutes, to which they told us yes. We sat down and ordered, and then it took them an hour to bring our food to us. We ordered Bento boxes, which should not take very long to cook, not to mention the restaurant was not busy at all. The waiter rarely came to check in on us, and by the time the food came we had to have it packed up and just get out of there. Once I got home to eat the food, it was only okay. Better than fast food like Edo Japan, but at least Edo Japan is ready in 5 minutes. Definitely not worth the wait and being late to get off our lunch break.

My friend ordered the Uni, to try something new in life. We were all excited to try the uni, unfortunately the uni looked like my Bowles and was not the orange colour it is supposed to be… as soon as the uni touched my friends tongue he spat it out and threw up on his plate… overall nice

It's definitely one of the better sushi restaurants in town. I like how they have these tables for larger groups that have couchescand pillows

My husband and I were on special Christmas trip to Victoria and late one evening while touring we got so hungry, didn't have energy to find anywhere closer.So we went to this restaurant since we were just around the corner. I really hate to say this and rate low stars, but... their food were just beyond bland, boring and simply TERRIBLE! I'm Japanese, I've eaten Japanese food all my life and I NEVER had such poor and horrible Japanese food like that. I usually try to eat everything to not waste food or not be rude, even if it's not great. But this was simply so bad and I just couldn't. Even I thought their soy sauce was rotten or something... I would highly recommend their chefs to learn how to cook at least decent quality Japanese food as its basically insulting to my heritage for what me and my husband tried to eat and enjoy on our Christmas trip and this basically almost ruined the trip. Yes, it was that bad and pathetic....

Overpriced and not great quality sushi. I'm sticking with Sushi Story in Esquimalt.

We had a notably poor experience with a wait time of 15 minutes before even receiving water, followed by another 20-minute wait to place our order. It took an additional 40 minutes for our food to arrive, only to find that it was incomplete. The menu offered little variety and nothing particularly enticing. Unfortunately, the oysters ordered were not fresh and had to be sent back, and the sushi rice was dry and old. Overall, the service was subpar, and the quality of the food did not justify the high prices. A disappointing visit indeed.

It's a nice restaurant, food took too long to come and was mediocre. Our server was nice but he really was hard to catch and it took him almost 15 min just to come to get our order. Bathroom was nasty. Would not go again.
