Not a sushi girl BUT they have so much more. The vibe is flirty and sexy with intimate charm. BTW love the Cherry Blossom Trees.
We ordered a lot. Coconut Fire Shrimp, Garden and Tempura Rolls, Mushroom and Salmon Yakitiri, Goyza, Truffle Fries, Garlic Butter noodles, Plum wine, Crane Returns, Melon Smash and Koi Pond. It was delicious. Everything was bursting with flavor. The garlic noods were bomb. We used them to tie the Yakitori together.

Guests often describe the restaurant as one of the best sushi spots in Charlotte, with fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented dishes. The cocktails pair really well with the food.
Customers have praised the exceptional food, including the Dumplings, Crab Avocado Rolls, Yakitori skewers, Earth and Surf roll, Nirvana roll, and Matcha and Wild Berry Ice Cream. The bacon wrapped asparagus and edamame have also been highlighted as delightful dishes. The restaurant's Nirvana roll has been noted as a favorite by some visitors, ranking among their top five.
While the restaurant excels in most areas, some customers have expressed a desire for complimentary soy dipping sauce with sushi orders, rather than having to pay an additional fee. Additionally, some customers have observed that the tables are closely spaced, which can affect the privacy of conversations.
