Upon arriving to the place there is plenty of parking, which was great! The outside doesn’t do the inside justice, very nicely organized and clean establishment with beautiful inside decor.We were seated immediately and our server was very friendly and took care of us a party of 4.I ordered the yakitori as a starter , it was delicious and tasty, perfectly grilled. It came with a peanut butter sauce which was really good , just not what I personally like so I swapped it for spicy mayo which was also delicious and had a nice kick.I started off with a drink and got an old fashion, it was tasty and strong! Just how I like it!I also had a seaweed salad which was perfectly seasoned.I then ordered two specialty roles the hot night and the ocean king (I swapped the mango for cream cheese).Both rolls were huge and I can say this is the best sushi I have ever had! You can taste the flavors were fresh and so were the ingredients!For dessert we had the vanilla, strawberry and green tea mochis which are all a must try!Will be a returning costumer.Kid-friendliness: Kids are allowed

Everything here is fresh, unique and really good. Definitely should be more crowded but it's a hidden gem. And the bar makes it more

Took a friend here for their birthday. Shared the spring roll and pepper tuna. The tuna was so fresh and perfectly seasoned. The rolls were just as tasty. My favorite is the beyond roll which is vegan. Had hot house sake that was made the food even tastier. Service was good.

Best Japanese restaurant in the area by far. Amazing food, excellent staff, and a great bar. Zero complaints, and always leave satisfied.Parking: Parking lot is large. Semi-difficult to exit during high-traffic times due to buildings location, but worth the extra wait.Kid-friendliness: Kid menuWheelchair accessibility: Ramp to door way
Our new go-to for sushi or anything Japanese. Sushi is the best in the Monmouth area, and the other food we have tried (vegetable fried rice, spring rolls, gyoza, etc) have all been top notch as well. The food is flavorful but not heavy or greasy, not even the fried rice. Even though it’s not really “sushi” the avocado peanut rolls (I have no idea what’s on the peanuts but it makes them 10x better) with spicy mayo is one of the most delicious things I’ve had in awhile. They also don’t use much rice on the rolls which is great, too. Much better inside to rice ratio than most but for same price. Highly recommend!

It has become my go to place weekly. The food and staff are fantastic.
We made a mistake to go as a family on Valentine's Day. The service primarily was incredibly slow. It took over an hour to receive our food. When we inquired about when our food would come out, we were told 2 - 5 minutes. It took much longer than that. The quality of the food was pretty good, but the extensive wait ruined the experience for us. I expect that they took on way too many take out orders, which impacted their ability to provide the dine-in orders in a reasonable amount of time. I'm sorry that our server had to deal with many unhappy customers, but giving the excuse that they are busy just indicates they messed up.

I would give 0 stars if possible. The wait for dinner after ordering was over an hour. After waiting an hour we told our waitress we had another appointment and could not wait much longer. She assured us the food was ready and coming out. We waited another 10 minutes without any food or update. We then spoke to the manager who said they were starting our sushi rolls now. We explained that we could not wait any longer and she charged us for the drinks and Kani salad without an apology or any consideration for our time. While we waited for over an hour, not one staff member asked us if we wanted another drink or checked in with us. Surrounding customers were also expressing frustration and complaining about the service/wait time. Cannot comment on the food as we left without our meal. Terrible experience and probably the worst service I have encountered.

This place profiles delivery drivers and discriminate. The workers in the place had the audacity to give me a thumbs down for no reason. I’m going to report them to the BBB because I did absolutely nothing. They ask to confirm and I show them and they’re absolutely rude and homophobic. Going to post this on social media too. Rude Chinese people!!!! Do NOT eat here!!
