“I don't have any pictures unfortunately. Inside was pretty alright. Nothing too fancy nor exotic like Sushi Roll off of Broadway. -Looked like it used to be a Fast Food chain before it became Meijo Sushi judging by the drive thru. This gave me vibes that of Niban Japanese Restaurant near Convoy. The food such as the sushi however is one of my top favorites of all sushi/Japanese restaurants I've been to. I highly recommend the Seared Ahi Roll. First time trying it, and haven't seen that anywhere else especially near home. Arguably to myself, one of my favorite sushis out there. I even took my girlfriend here and that was a successful date. This just goes to show, never judge a restaurant by its interior. The food was spectacular. It's in a plaza and parking is plentiful.”

The atmosphere was fun, upbeat, and inviting — the kind of place that makes you want to hang out for a while (and definitely come back again!). Great people, great vibes, and of course, AMAZING ice cream.
Thanks Mick, Gabe, and Emma K for making my day!”

“After Gustave had catered an event at our preschool for the second time, he invited my colleagues and I to come by his new location in downtown, and we did! He served us personally and recommended just the right menu items for our preferences (vegetarian, spicy, mild,...), ordered them and served them. We thoroughly enjoyed the tasty hotdogs, corn and fries. Let's not forget about the drinks from the Abbey and the sweet desert: churro with ice cream! The atmosphere was casual, festive with the strings of lights and the very recently installed inflatable penguin on the roof, that conveyed Holiday cheer! Thank you Gus for a delightful evening!”

Plenty of seating available or you can take the coffee to the beach or walk. Baristas change often but I never had any inconsistencies with my drinks. The young girl working there is really sweet.
I recommend this place for good prices and dog-friendliness.”
