In wait line for 40 min and they sat people that arrived after us and didn’t go by the waitlist. Once seated, did not give us menus and we ended up leaving after waiting 15 min.

Both presentation and taste is great, the kevin's roll was loaded with fish. Everything raw is fresh as it can be. The quail egg sake was like a flavor bomb straight into your mouth, should try that.

Service is super biased since we know the lads working there but im sure they are just as nice to other guests.

This one is also one of the nicer sushi restaurants out there, even their bathroom is squeeky clean.

The service was mediocre… we waited maybe ten minutes for a server to come and just say hello… and from there didn’t really receive much attention after getting our food until it was time to pay. The sushi is fairly priced. The place is basic dining experience. The quality and taste is good, but not amazing. I would say it’s a good go to option if you’re in the area.. as it’s still better than most others.

The rolls and tempura were great! It's a little bit on the pricey side if you're cost-aware, but you do get good food for the price, so I'd say it's a fair deal. My friend and I felt a bit rushed by the staff. There was no wait, but there aren't too many tables, so if it looks busy you might have to wait.

Nigiri was so amazing for the price (5/5). Only hiccup was the chicken katsu which tasted like it was microwaved and very dry

I went here on a whim tonight and was surprised to find such a gem!

I ordered the garlic edamame, omakase sashimi, and two rolls. Everything hit the spot so perfectly. I usually am picky with sushi, but I was quite impressed with this place (especially given that it’s difficult to find a good sushi spot in the bay compared to SoCal).

I would come again!

The nigiri combo was amazing and the quality of the fish was really good. Agedashi tofu wasn't that great.

I highly recommend getting their premium rolls! The execution was amazing, each roll was we thought out. Skip the happy hour menu. Pay attention to the monthly rolls, I only noticed it at the end, but the description looked fire.

Premium rolls:
- Eighty-Eight Roll was packed and topped with so much fish! I loved the wasbi tobiko on top. The tuna was extremely fresh. Texture was soft. The roll was amazing. Sauce was really good very light and not over powering was savory and a hint of citrus. Highly recommend.

- The Phoenix Roll was also amazing. The tobiko flavor was very interesting. It had a smoky taste to it similar to hondashi from their sauce, which was similar to a soy reduction with bonito. I the tobiko may have absorbed some of the sauce flavor (?). The avocado was nice and buttery. The unagi top was really savory. Love the portion size of the fish. Sauce seems like a soy reduction with some hondashi or bonito, very delicious.Hamachi had a nice firmer texture. Love the combination of ingredients.

Happy hour:
- Takoyaki batter is nice and crispy and a big chunk of tender octopus inside. Lightly dressed which doesn’t over power everything.

- California roll crab salad was a bit saucy, a bit heavy on the mayo side.

- Spicy tuna was good. Minced nicely that there is still texture to the bite rather than all mush. Not too spicy, tasted very fresh.

I like that all the rolls were packed. And light on the rice. The speciality rolls were well thought out with amazing execution. All the individual flavors fit perfectly and complimented each other. I would skip the happy hour rolls and re place it with the monthly roll. Didn’t get a chance to try it but the description looked really good.

Service was good very attentive, they paid attention to the water level and asked if we need more. Our rolls came out pretty fast too.
