“I loved the food. It's actually some of the best Takoyaki and Curry I've had in a while. Things were actually cooked and delicious! (Side eyeing Matsuyama.) Though the curry was a bit unorthodox compared to others I've had, everything worked well together and I felt great eating it, felt great after eating it. It was just goof. I love the atmosphere, it feels very genuine and reminiscent of some of the restaurants I've been to in Japan. They were VERY kind and overall, I would recommend this to literally anyone. 10/10“

“Hey, this place, just open for 3 months in San Rafael, is a find, at least for me. In case you haven't noticed, sushi prices have soared, but here the sashimi (basic but excellent) was very reasonably priced, and the staff couldn't have been nicer. I went for the sashimi to test the quality of the fish and now I'll be going back to sample the enormous collection of rolls. I'm not usually an 'all you can eat guy' but their deal on this seems remarkable!“

“I inhaled most of the sushi. I called 10 minutes before they closed for pickup asking for a really good special roll. I remember she said something about tuna. I of course said yes as long as there’s no cream cheese or bell peppers. The sweet lady was patient and took my order.
Holy cow! Whatever this is with tuna inside and tuna outside… it’s freaking delicious! Kudos for a perfect roll. The rice is perfect, the tuna is perfect and whatever else is in there is perfect!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! You’re awesomest!“
