Sushi always fresh, and the Wow Wings always hit the spot.
The drunkards noodz were good
A great spot for vegetarians with a solid menu, though it was odd that the veggie sushi platter wasn't listed under it. That said, the flavors were fantastic - especially the spicy edamame! Looking forward to returning and trying more non-sushi options.
The restaurant steals the tip from delivery drivers when the order is placed through their website. Be aware.
Had high hopes based on reviews but was really disappointed. Some of the worst food I've had in a long time. Perhaps dine-in is better, but the items ordered were all subpar and my fish was spoiled. Other dishes not particularly flavorful or notable, definitely lesser than other similar restaurants with the same dishes.
1) salmon poke- a few bites in and I got spoiled fish. So there's that. Plus it was served with cold sushi rice, rather than warm rice as it's supposed to be. It came with overripe and brown spotty avocado and mango so underripe it was crunchy and flavorless. Sauce was only on the bottom of the bowl and there wasn't much of it. Pretty disappointed for a $20 bowl, the only element that was done right was the seaweed salad. 0/10 Wouldn't order again.
2) Chicken teriyaki was awful. The sauce color was all wrong, there was no flavor of soy sauce or garlic at all. Didn't taste like teriyaki AT ALL Not worth the price and wouldn't order again. Rice was okay 2/10.
3) Chicken fried rice had a nice mix of veggies. The chicken was decent, the dish overall was too wet and the sauce was bland. No flavors of umami, soy, sesame, or anything salty. I can't tell what sauce they used but I had to add my own soy sauce to the dish. This was the best thing out of the order and wouldn't order again. 4/10
Maybe they just had an off night, but none of our dishes were good, and my poke had spoiled salmon which made it inedible. Really disappointed for the money spent.
Unless the restaurant really tries to make it right I wouldn't order again.
Phenomenal! Got the veggie/shrimp tempura, miso soup, bibimbap and sushi pizza. Everything tasted amazing, the servers were very kind and let us take our time, and it had a cozy atmosphere and people were polite enough to keep the volume at an acceptable level.
The Bibimbap was perfect, served in a searing hot bowl that made the rice on the sides extra crispy. The sauce and kimchi were both wonderful. The sushi pizza was a very refreshing and original idea! The sashimi and other toppings are on top of a thin rice and nori pattie that was fried in breading. This gave it a nice crunch and original feel, but still satisfied my sushi craving with the quality toppings. The miso and tempura were great and perfectly hit the spot. Officially my favorite place for Japanese (and other Asian dishes) in Watertown.
I've only gotten DoorDash from here, so I cannot comment on the physical restaurant or service itself; but the food is 5/5 stars every time!

That's not a bibimbap by any authentic measure. Ramen broth was ok but everything else in it was bad, mostly just non fresh noodles. Sushi were fine with me but not my companion. For that price you'd expect the food to at least taste good.

We convened after the graduation ceremony to partake in a brief repast prior to our celebratory dinner later that evening. Regrettably, the service personnel exhibited a lack of enthusiasm and affability in their interactions with us. Despite our status as the sole patrons, a group of approximately eight to ten individuals, approximately thirty minutes after our meal was served, a member of the staff approached our table and made condescending remarks, implying that we should settle our bill and depart. We were profoundly disappointed with the quality of both the food and the service, particularly in light of the prices charged, which bear no relation to the substandard nature of the offerings. Needless to say, we shall not be returning to this establishment.
