This place was amazing! Got seated right away and felt very cared for. My water glass was always full which I really appreciated. The atmosphere of the place was wonderful! Decorated very nicely for the holidays. And of course the food was incredible! Got a couple of sushi rolls, the salmon spring rolls, edamame and mochi ice cream for dessert. Loved it all, would highly recommend this place!

I rarely eat Japanese food, but I went because my girlfriend frequents this restaurant. I am glad I did go! There were plenty of choices for me as a vegan. And everyone else enjoyed the sushi. Everything was brought to the table beautifully prepared and tasty! Our server was attentive to our needs and patiently explained everything to me as I was new to the experience. I will definitely be going back to try other dishes!

Parking: Plenty of parking in the garage, which is right behind the building so an easy walk through the alleyway.

The restaurant owners are very welcoming and the food is INCREDIBLE

Excellent flavor and complexion; generous cuts of sashimi and clearly solid quality of fish. The special treat, however, was the service. I came in after a doctor’s appointment while waiting for a ride, not realizing until I was already sat that they wouldn’t be open for another 45min (the door was opened up already and the tables set, which threw me off from the fact). Regardless, they kindly insisted I stay for lunch. Even while finishing opening procedures, their service was timely, respectful, and fully accommodating.

Despite me intruding during their opening, I was never made to feel like a bother. Between that and the terrific lunch, I’ll absolutely be coming back - give ‘em a shot!

Aozora seated me and my friends, and it took them nearly 30 minutes to take our order, then another 1.5 hours to get the food. A couple had come in after us, got their order, finished, and paid before we got our food.Food was good but not worth the wait, and I didn't feel full after the chirashi sushi. Had the wait time been shorter and larger portions were served, I'd return. But I would not return given the experience I had.

So it took us 20mins to get a table then an additional TWO HOURS OF SITTING to get our food. we even saw people who came AFTER us being served before us and we only received our food after complaining and then it took them five mins to give us our food. even with the wait, the food was OKAY. it wasn't worth the price but it was decent. I did speak to some people who ordered their food "to go" and I suggest just ordering food for pickup from them. all in all, it wasn't bad the food but the wait times are definitely not worth it...there were also people who came after us, who were served before us and even left before we even received our meals.

Sushi was OK, friend's chicken teriyaki looked like it had been microwaved and dropped on a plate of sauceService is incredibly slow, took well over half an hour to get someone to take our

Outstanding sushi

Really wanted to like this place but it tasted like bad Japanese food in the mall. Sushi was chewy. Udon noodles were over sweetened and Teriyaki dishes were underwhelming and with the slimmest shavings of vegetables. Won’t be back.

Vegetarian options: There are some but they are underwhelming
