Excellent sushi restaurant in downtown Monterey.
Fresh, great service and fun atmosphere.
Fresh, great service and fun atmosphere.
This was truly the best stop before a concert, right across the venue too. Great portions, and genuinely some of the BEST Katsu I have ever had in my life. It was sooo crisp and tasted fantastic. I didn't get a photo of the miso soup, but it was wonderful. The beef portion was HUGE! We literally couldn't finish and had to take it home. Everything was amazing, will be coming here again when I come around Monterey!
Incredible fish
