Small and cozy. Light jazz in background. Most authentic sushi+ in Mill Valley for sure. Not fast food fried like many others in Marin.

If you’re looking for actual sushi, this is a step below Sushi Ran for example but also a bit less pricey but more personal as its so intimate - you're looking at the chef and you know he knows what he's doing.

They seem to be working on a cute outdoor seating arrangement, that’s a work in process. Will be nice in the warmer months.

I’m looking forward to going back and trying an omakase experience. They are clearly capable. I’m told it requires making a reservation. Get that in Mill Valley!

Support local y’all :)

My new favorite lunch place. The food is fresh, the service responsive and it has become my 'go-to' when meeting a friend. Parking, great food, clean and nice ambiance. Love, we need more high quality Asian food options in Marin.

Excellent! but way too bright… The food was delicious- my new favorite Japanese in Marin for sure ;) fresh, simple, authenticate but with a fun twist. The hand roll sets were a good deal, rolls aren’t too overly done and more fish forward. Nori was fresh & toasty. Clean & modern atmosphere, friendly attentive staff & quick service.
My only complaint was that it was WAY too bright in there… Would’ve appreciated the dining room having half the lumen output for a better date night dining experience. Felt a bit cafeteria like. Would suggest a handful of paper lanterns or something to make it feel more approachable ;)
Can’t wait to go back regardless!!

Went in last night for the first time and we really enjoyed our food. We ordered multiple skewers , hand rolls (scallop with lemon zest was a standout), and appetizers, all of which we really enjoyed for the price. Oshitashi and agedashi tofu were really heartwarmingly soothing treats. Only recommendation would be to turn the lights down a tad, I feel like this place could be a great date spot any night of the week.

My husband and I have been here twice. The food was good and delicious. But the servers weren’t nice —we didn’t feel welcomed by the servers, and felt like they had an attitude towards us. We weren’t impressed by the service at all. The atmosphere was awesome and the restaurant was absolutely beautiful.

By far the best sushi in mill valley! So fresh and delicious with a great mix of the old stand by dishes as well as creative menu items. The service is fast and attentive, and it’s a fair price for very high quality sushi. We love it both for date night and for family dinners.

It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t outstanding also. Lotus roll - has an interesting idea but it’s tasteless. Regular sushi restaurant for cosy lunch.

I was on a day trip to Point Reyes and Mount Tam and on my way back home to Napa, I was craving sushi and saw this place and decided to go. It was the best choice I’ve made in a while. The sushi showed the dedication and respect of the chefs all while being very reasonably priced. If I’m ever back in the area or just craving really good sushi I’ll be sure to return here. I sadly ate the food before I remembered to take pictures.

Service was good and the sushi was outstanding. I have eaten at many sushi restaurants, and this one was top quality. They had some of the freshest fish I have had ever in a restaurant. For reference, I have been a fisherman all my life, and on many occasions eaten ling cod, yellowtail, yellowfin tuna, snappers, halibut, salmon, mahi-mahi, and many others, straight from the ocean, and I am picky about fish being actually fresh. This place delivers. We ordered California Roll, Lotus Roll, Spicy tuna roll, hamachi kama, and (maguro, albacore, saba, unagi) nigiri - all excellent. It's hard to find good saba nigiri! Our bill with drinks came out to about $190 for three people (we ordered multiples of most of the items). Not cheap, but wow was it good! I will definitely be back.
