We went for Valentines Day, and the food was fresh and delicious. Our server, Kelvin, went above and beyond despite how busy it was in the restaurant. There were a few hiccups with the iPad and kitchen service that he attended to and smoothed over quickly. We had a wonderful evening, thank you Kelvin!

August 8 is consistently a solid choice for sushi and dim sum in the area. The food is always fresh and tasty, and as you can see from the photo, the variety is excellent. I find the price to be decent for an all-you-can-eat spot. Portions are generous and the service is efficient. Definitely a reliable spot when you're craving a big sushi feast!

My friend and I went for the dinner AYCE during the weekend. It was a bit busy but the service was excellent. We loved the Strawberry Soju Mojito and the cheese wontons for sure! Will go back again another time.

After finishing our meal I asked about doing some takeout so I can take some to my grandparents. They said it’s policy that they have to charge me a 15$ takeout fee since I just ate, that is beyond unacceptable. Since when does ordering takeout require a 15$ fee?
