This spot is awesome! I came in after doing a long drive and a bum back for a late lunch and I got welcomed to a tranquil and modern dinning room. My waiter was great and helped me with menu. The grilled peppers with shrimp were a blast and perfect appetizer. The beef skewers were smoky and had a nice soy glaze and paired well with the grilled pineapple. The ramen stole the show for me with it's mellowness and depth of flavor and minor fountain of youth. When you are feeling super picky this spot will hit your expectations and more.

We had a very nice meal here. We had no reservation on a Friday evening, but we only had to wait 15 minutes or less. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The facility was excellent, cloth tablecloths and an upscale setting. The menu has a nice variety of sushi and small plates, which was very nice. The chicken yakatori was very tasty. The garlic edamame was really good and plentiful. The crab sushi roll was nice. The tempura is what changed this from 5 stars to four. Just one shrimp, and the items tasted like they had been battered and cooked earlier and then just reheated? I will go again, but I won’t order the tempura.

Excellent customer service and amazing menu with varieties of sushi. The big salmon sushi roll is good. The softshell crab is amazing. Reservation recommended on Weekend.

So delicious and the price matches the perfection in food. Got the sashimi chefs choice and it was the most beautiful platting I've ever seen! Is a little upscale vibe and I had just got off work from my own restaurant job and felt so welcomed. Didn't get drinks from the bar but I'm sure they are just as tasty as the food.

Could not recommend higher! The food was great (real wasabi!) and very reasonably priced. Best Japanese restaurant in Davis by a mile.

just wow - what great sushi! Finally, a la cart great sushi here again! . we had mostly Nigiri and rolls-hanachi, negahami- maki, grilled eel, sweet potato, vegetarian roll. We're coming back next week to try the Ramen and they also have Don Bori. Lots of nice traditional Japanese dishes, and nice traditional Japanese presentation and extraordinarily good fish. So thrilled! we are going to be regular here. said to say, we took photos of everything but have no way to figure out how to put them up here on the review too bad

The service was impeccable. The presentation of my Shoyu Ramen was beautiful. It was very tasty and filling on a winter day.

This place has a wonderful minimalist environment, beautiful table wear and clean feeling. It feels like a very expensive restaurant but the prices are very reasonable. Services was phenomenal and felt very traditional. We asked if they had “real wasabi” and was told that’s all they had. That’s a Good sign. Cocktails were creative and delicious. Sushi was the best fish I’ve had next to the stuff we have freshly caught. Miso ramen was also unbelievably delicious. Honestly couldn’t believe we left spending under $200 including 25% tip. Felt like a 400$ experience. Absolutely going back. They also accommodated our little kids and were very gracious.
Absolutely outstanding izakaya restaurant from Japanese-trained owner/staff. This was a very welcome surprise visiting UC Davis. My family comes from Japan, and several dishes rivaled the quality and tasteof what you commonly find in Japan. Very impressive.

Very nice restaurant; I ordered their chirashi bowl and each piece of fish was beautifully cut, fresh, and delicious. The interior is bright and stunning, and the price was very reasonable for the quality.
