My initial rating would have been 5 stars, but currently, it stands at 3 stars.

Before I delve deeper into this review, I want to mention that I plan to give this place another try and will update my review accordingly.

I have visited this restaurant three times, each visit approximately 1-2 months apart. My first visit was phenomenal: excellent customer service, minimal wait time, fresh and tasty food, and a feeling of being a valued customer. The interior is very pleasant, with comfortable booth seating, some in more private areas of the restaurant, which I love to request if available. The waitress was incredibly kind and respectful, always checking in throughout the meal. I ordered a ton of food, sushi rolls and a main meal. I left very happy and full.

However, my last two visits completely changed my view of the restaurant.

This place seems to be popular for takeout. I have only dined in, but during my last two visits, they were always busy with takeout orders. Prioritizing them over customers in house.

Visit 2/3

There were three other families in the restaurant, and I was the fourth customer, eating alone and doing some work. I was seated after a 3-5 minute wait. Once seated, it took almost 10 minutes to receive a glass of water. After that, it took another 10-15 minutes to place my order. They were out of a few drinks I enjoy and another menu item, so I had to adjust my order—no big deal. The waitress was busy with takeout orders and only checked in once during my meal which was a bit upsetting.

Visit 3/3 (the worst experience, 2 months ago)

I had the same waitress all three times, and she was WONDERFUL and respectful. I do not blame her, but it seems the other staff members aren’t pulling their weight.

I waited a bit to be seated. The place was EMPTY except for one other family, but they were busy with takeout orders again. After being seated, the waitress had to answer multiple phone calls, attend to the bar, and disappear into the back. Meanwhile, two other staff members were chatting while I waited patiently to place my order. **OVER 30 MINUTES went by before she could take my order, with no other staff members offering assistance.

Items were out of stock again, so I adjusted my order without any issues. My order took forever to come out because they prioritized takeout orders. The waitress did not come over ONCE during my entire dining experience. No water refills, nothing. I had to stand up and wave someone down for water after waiting almost 20 minutes.

The whole experience was terrible, and I wasted over 30 minutes just watching them prioritize takeout orders. The service was lacking due to how busy this one waitress was while others stood around.

As mentioned earlier, I want to give this place another try since it’s been over a month since my last visit. The food is great, the atmosphere is nice, and overall, it's an enjoyable experience. I have tried something new on all three visits and enjoyed everything.

I have never gotten takeout from them, but I assume takeout would be the way to go since it seems to be their priority.

Overall, I would rate it 2/5 stars for dine-in at the moment and assume a 4-5/5 star rating for takeout.

Hoping my next visit will be better.

I love sushi, and the sushi bar is awesome. There specialty rolls are fantastic. I love there sushi/sashimi platter for 2... I usually buy 2 or 3 appetizers and it can absolutely feed 3. Haven't had a meal here that I didn't thoroughly enjoy.
