Delicious innovative sushi and Japanese dishes. We were forced to wait a half hour to order and we had to ask three times for utensils-twice after our food was delivered.The soup we ordered never came. The brith with the ramen was cold. We had to request more broth. The wait staff needs training and improvement.

Delicious hand roll, well fried tempura with udon. Their signature roll was also very impressive and unique. We arrived before they opened (at 4pm on a Saturday) and were seated very fast. Shortly after half of the tables were seated.

They greatly improved their food quality since the last time we dined, roughly a month prior. Thank goodness! We especially love the calamari! And all the fish is super fresh. Amazing sake and drunk menu too!

They wouldn’t take to-go orders over the phone, and could only place them in person, so we drove a ways to do that. When we got there, we learned the bartender is in charge of BOTH manning the bar and taking to-go orders at the same time, a seemingly impossible ask for them, and frustrating as a customer who just wants to place and order and take it home for their family. Then because they were so busy they unfortunately left out part of our order after 40 minute wait. 18% mandatory gratuity for take-out is also a new concept and one that would keep us from coming back here. The food is good but the system for take-out is hectic / expensive and could be dramatically improved for customers.

GF options, super quality sushi and bevs. Pricey, but service is quick and one of few sushi restaurants where I haven't been dosed w gluten. From the foodie hubs "best scallop of my life." Hamachi kama - stellar; & off menu. You can go straight from slope or trail and still get top service as you are. Sit at the bar and witness the hustle in action.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free

Thr sushi ? and sashimi are legit especially for a place like Truckee, which is up in the mountains, far removed from a metropolitan civilization. Other dishes such as the fried chicken and noodles ? are tasty. Attentive service. We ate out with ny 2 grandtoddlers conveniently. Ambience is modernistic nice based on the industrial architectural design of the interior.

I would vote six stars if possible. Sam is a great server.More dinosaur themed art would be sick, but it’s cool that they don’t have as much.

We had Sam and she was the NICEST, COOLEST, MOST HARDWORKING GIRLY. Based off her service I’ve decided to name my first born child after her. Five stars is not enough!!!!!

Great little spot in Truckee. Excellent and helpful staff which is huge when you've got a toddler with you. Noodles were tasty. We didn't have time to try the sushi but this place was a savior for a tiny monster about to have a hangry crash after a day in the snow.Kid-friendliness: High chair provided and they were knowledgeable about dishes that were kid-friendly on the spice spectrum.

We love the food here! 5 stars for food! Each dish is prepared with lots of flavor (and love:)) the challenge is the service is always lacking. Always slow, sometimes forgetful but generally kind. Go here for the food and bring your patience. Recommend spicy edamame, agadashi tofu, and monkey rolls.
Your garlic prawns used to be saucier, not as good anymore. Ahi Tataki portion was a lot less and tasted very different from previous visits. Very inconsistent, this used to be our favorite spot. It’s sad.

Sushi was good. But the longer-than-forecasted wait and seating confusion on a Saturday night almost made it not
