3.5 overall. The food wasn't great, but not bad either. The ambience was nice and the service fast and friendly. Giving it a 3.5 because the food was a bit overpriced in terms of quality and portions. This seems to be a common thing about sushi restaurants in South Lake Tahoe, Reno is a much better deal when it comes to sushi/poke.
Hidden gem in Lake Tahoe. Stopped here for lunch after a soccer match, and our family loved it. Sashimi appetizer (12 pieces) is a great and delicious value. Kids enjoyed the tempura, and AJ’s Roll is pretty special. Other rolls are delicious too. Service is good, and ambiance is simple and nice. Unlike many other restaurants in the Lake Tahoe area, the prices were fair for what you get. I would recommend checking this place out.
