Tried the ramen, a specialty roll and the salmon teriyaki. The egg in the ramen was super overcooked. Specialty roll was pretty good. Salmon and the shrimp tempura was also overcooked.

Unfortunately it was also pretty slow. The server was nice and apologetic but overall it’s

Fairly small place, delicious food. Seemed like they limit the number of people. Reservations highly recommended. A single chef was doing a great job getting the orders flowing. Super fast service. Sushi and chicken katsu were delicious. The inside was a bit outdated and the place was a bit crammed. Service started well but as a couple more tables were occupied, our sever got distracted.
Certainly a must try for the quality of food.

The place seemed nice, I ordered takoyaki Togo and it had like a drop of sauce on it. I was really dissappointed and was craving takoyaki so badly... :((
(the miso soup was good, I also ordered a spicy salmon roll and it wasn't spicy at all it just tasted like mayo... the place looks really nice and I'm sure if you get a more fancier roll maybe it'll have a little more flavor?)
I hate leaving a bad review but all the reviews seemed so good, I had to be honest. This is just my own experience though, still go and try it out!

Beautifully lit, cozy yet open. Service was lovely. Food was *chef's kiss* brilliant.
Don't sleep on this as a lunch spot if you are on campus at Cal for the day. Open 7 days a week from Noon- 8pm.
You will be delighted. I know I was. Already picking out my next order.

The sushi is very good. Their mayo is a bit spicier than others. Everything is made fresh so there’s a bit of a wait but good sushi rolls!
The gyoza and appetizers are tasty as well.

Sushi was really fresh and melt in your mouth texture. The rice was spot flavor and texture wise on and the main rainbow roll was bigger than I expected. The salmon sashimi was thick cut, Japan style. Would go back

Amazing rolls. Best sushi spot in Berkeley, and that’s coming from someone whos been to ALL of them! Highly recommend the lion king and godzilla rolls. The service is great and the lady is very kind, though it can be a bit slow at times when it’s busy because they make everything themselves. But that makes it taste better!! Would definitely recommend this place for anyone who is looking for an affordable sushi spot.

I’m SO disappointed after seeing all the good reviews, but this was literally some of the worst, most bland sushi I’ve had in my life. It tasted like grocery store sushi. I got it through DoorDash, otherwise I would have sent it back. Also, the avocado they used in the rolls was completely brown. What a waste of money. I never leave reviews, but I’m angry enough about the money I lost to post one about this place. I didn’t even eat the rolls.
