Service was slow, food quality was average at best but considering the price ($20-$30 per roll) not even close to worth it. I've had much better sushi in the Village for 1/2 the price. Three rolls, (2) orders of edamame and water for $100 for 2 ppl.

Took 1hr and 10 min for a roll. Waitresses kept lying about how long it would take. I left hungry cuz I didn't want to wait an hour for a second roll. Didn't like paying $12 a bottle for a beer bottled in Escondido. Halloween decorations look like they had middle school children did it, they should just take them down. Don't eat here if you're hungry.

One of the best places to eat in East County and a weekly visit for us. The food and service are always consistent; this place is a gem.

Stopped here for a little sushi experience and it didn't disappoint, the food was amazing and the atmosphere was on the fancier side but still inviting and comfortable for an impromptu visit!
The service on the other hand was slow in receiving our food even with sitting at the sushi bar, they were kinda busy but good thing is that we were not in a rush at all!

The patio is terrific. Service was great. Atmosphere is very nice. Sometimes your group wants sushi, and you might be in the mood for something a little different. They have options. I chose the Japanese Katsu Curry. My friends sushi looked terrific people seem to like it very much. The Katsu curry was a 1 out of 10. Curry was way too mild almost without flavor, the vegetables in the curry sauce were almost unnoticeable, except the red bell peppers, thank goodness. The chicken seemed like some reheated formed frozen disk. And I get that Katsu is always plain, it’s not something that’s highly seasoned. The sauce served on the side was some concentrated gelatinous nonsense. I was really disappointed, especially because it’s a $30 dish. Every restaurant’s prices have gone up. But the value here wasn’t worth it. Enjoy a nice cocktail here maybe a little appetizer, and really enjoy that patio, but my take on it was it’s not worth it.
