This sushi spot is a true gem! The food is so delicious! It's great quality food at good pricing! They serve some of the BEST oysters I've ever had..I ate them so fast. There are so many tasty choices. I only remember the name of 2 really good ones that I highly recommend. Try the Lemon Cilantro roll and the Twister or Tornado roll (something like that) it has tender crispy potato around it, OMG. It blew my mind!! Incredible gem in Santee ? 5/5 ? oh, and 1 more thing,...

I had a synergy gift card, so we decided to try this place out. I am so happy we did!!! It's hard to find a good sushi place that also does bomb ramen! We had the gyoza, tonkatsu ramen, tuna seaweed salad, shrimp tempura roll and chicken yakisoba. Everything was absolutely amazing. I am happy that they were able to accommodate my diet by making my roll without rice.
Kid-friendliness: They had lemonade and kids dishes that my daughter enjoyed.
