One of our favorite places to go. Great ambiance and service. Portions are pretty big, and the cost is nice.

A little place hidden in a weird little strip mall. But sushi is great. Service is also great. Tried other places, but keep coming back to this gem of a place.

I have been wanting to try this place for years and keep forgetting about it as it is located in a small strip mall on the other side of the tracks (literally) so I tend not to think of that side of town for dining.I was greeted immediately and sat at the bar. I have favorites I like to order in order to gauge the quality of the place and chef.First, the disappointment: the futomaki was plain, uninspiring, and plain dull. Not worth the $14. And a futomaki is a traditional roll that allows for a lot of creativity. I have had some stellar futomakis. Not so here.I had a bottle of junmai ginjo at $24 dollars. It was smooth... almost too smooth. The rice polish is 55%, same as one of my favorites, Kikusui junmai ginjo that has more distinct characteristics. While I have no complaints per se, I would look for something else next time.The nigiri was very good. Good taste, generous cuts/portion size, and the uni was great. Very fresh. Thank you Santa Barbara!I'd give the place a 4.5 to be more fair. I'll be happy to go back, but with more realistic expectations.

One suggestion for the owner? Carpet does not go well at a restaurant! Food is good but the place needs some changes

The food..... fresh as can be and amazing! The service, not so much. I was the only person in the entire place. My food sat on the sushi station for over 15 minutes while I stared at it from my table. Not one word from the waitress. Again, the only person in the restaurant. You would have thought the chef would offer me a little extra. Nope, very sad. I guess the takeout keeps them going. :/ Over $50 for one, again food was awesome!

Delicious sushi and tempura udon. Portion is generous, pricing on here is moderate to high in the area. It's around the all you can eat price in the area.Do note that leftovers you should bring your own to go boxes or pay $1 / each.

Moved away but I still try and come back and visit when I’m in the area. I typically get the ichiban roll and chicken karaage, both of which I recommend. Servers and owners are always nice and welcoming.

Three stars for the friendly staffs.We were hungry and needed a quick bite.Pros:Regular ramen is delicious was real noodles.Cons:Spicy Aya ramen is just package ramen (Shin ramen?) for $16 and doesn’t not include pork meat.. very disappointing (could’ve cooked that at home).Hubby was not crazy about the dragon roll.The staff is great but the food is lacking.
