“The fish here is definitely fresh. We had a great experience. In terms of sushi, I actually feel it can be hard to find a spot that I really like in socal. This spot just does it for me. The rolls are bigger than many places I’ve been which reflects the price point but you get what you pay for. We shared just two rolls and some edamame and I’m full. Each bite is pretty massive.“
