This place was so cute! Need to make reservations next time so we can get the booth seats. My favorite was the garlic calamari! 😋

Saw their Instagram ad and reminded me to come and leave a review for a very unpleasant experience from last year. Honestly food was not bad but gosh that sushi chef/owner was rude as hell. We were 5 min late and I called ahead to the waitress telling her we were looking for parking. (We had a 6pm reservation) We arrived at 6:05 to an absolutely empty restaurant and he yelled at us saying we are late and need to return table on time. It was my husband’s birthday and we took his parents with us. And we were mortified by this level of greetings. And of course we left before they turned the table.

Anyway. Again no complain about the food. Waitress was nice. But make sure you get there on time otherwise you’ll get yelled at even you called ahead and are apologetic.

Owner got some temper issues. Got all angry while explaining something. Hotpot was pretty bland as well.

The food was fresh and good. Attentive service. The price for a family dinner is a little bit expensive.

Authentic Japanese food but it was a bit overpriced based on the quality of their food. Nothing really stood out as far as I remember. Don't get me wrong. The food was good. But for the price that they charge, I had much higher expectations.

Went to this amazing Japanese establishment for one year anniversary with my wife. I was truly blown away with the service and quality of food. Beef tongue steak, grilled intestine and special yellow tail sushi were my favorites. I wish have more room for sushi haha

I highly recommend if you like to explore more Japanese cuisine in San Diego. This is alittle different than most sushi place so be prepared for traditional decors and sit down style. Reservation is almost a must!

What a cool spot they have dining areas which look exactly like you stepped into a Japanese restaurant. But they also have bar seating as well. All of the food was really solid. We got more than just sushi. Will definitely be coming back.
