stopped by this place as i was walking by and dined in with a friend. we shared the sushi. valentines roll was really good, so was the cosmo. i could kill ten of the onigiris. super filling and tasty. service was very nice and everything tasted fresh. no major complaints, its worth a visit if you're nearby, hungry, and want something light.

Stopped in for a late lunch. Got a Hawaii maki roll, side of white rice, and the pork buns. The sushi roll was really good. Nice textures and flavors. White rice wasn’t amazing. Wouldn’t get it unless u need a good cheap void filler. Their soy sauce was good. Helped with the rice. I’d pass on the pork buns. The sauces used on them were the only good part about them. Service was good. Nice interior too, was well kept. Overall, I’d go here again for the sushi if I was walking by.

Food is really tasty, I have eaten here about 3 times the first two were ok but this last one got me poisoned so bad, just right after. I could’ve done 1 star but I never leave bad reviews, only two places have gotten me this sick : Maluken and Dos amigos taqueria in Coolidge corner
As a semi-regular takeout customer from this place and sometimes in-house diner, the sushi and sashimi here are delicious and very reasonably priced. The staff are nice, service is quick, and the dining space is comfortable.

My husband and I were so pleased with our meal here during our stay in Boston! Lovely service, and EXCELLENT food for the price. You can tell how much pride they take in their restaurant. Our meal was about half the cost of other sushi places, but better than what I’ve had in a long time! My husband got the chicken ramen (the broth was incredible) and I got a sushi combo, which came with a small salad, miso soup, and a drink. The sushi was wonderful, and the rice was seasoned perfectly and so soft and fresh. If we’re ever in the neighborhood again, we know where we’re going for lunch!

More than forty minutes of waiting for an order and the restaurant was not full, apart from the very slow cook preparing the sushi. I don't recommend it because of the slowness.

Really good! I’ve only ordered takeout but have been happy with my orders each time. My only suggestion would be to upgrade the tempura shrimp quality if possible. I think it’s frozen (?) but definitely not freshly fried - if it’s within your budget to create from scratch I think this would elevate each of the dishes containing tempura shrimp (including the onigiri)! Definitely still highly recommend coming here
Honestly the best sushi I have ever had. Super friendly and prompt service. The spicy tuna maki with tempura is a game changer.

Amazing and fast service! Would definitely recommend the chirashi don
The kindest people run this place and it’s really comforting, well sourced sushi! Their noodles and other dishes are also heartwarming. Some of the best food in the area. Local businesses!
