They were able to slip me in by myself before the next reservation came in. I had unagi Maki and sushi pizza. Outstanding!

Next time I go back with more hungry mouths.

I get the impression they have lots of regular so make your reservation. The place is tiny.

I was getting my tires changed across the street, and this place got noticed. So, instead of going to our regular spot in St. Kits, we walked across the road to here. The food was good, nothing special, but I did appreciate the interior. However, the service as many other complained was awkward, and slow. There was two other tables in the restaurant at 1pm, and it took way too long to simply take our order, and even longer to receive our food. There was two tables in house, and it didn't seem any takeout was going through, so I couldn't imagine what it would be like if it was actually busy. Overall, it was acceptable, but I'll likely go elsewhere in the future.

The sashimi very good, food was all well prepared and large portions. But the table we sat at had a faint urine smell and little bowls of plain vermicelli noodles that were microwaved were an odd choice to offer at the beginning.

Hidden local gem we found by chance! Food was delicious and large portion sizes for the price! Staff were very friendly - we were visiting from out of town and they gave us some great sightseeing recommendations. Would definitely visit again!

Understandable the wait time as there is only one staff working handling all front of the house tasks ( cashier, take out delivery and taking orders pulse serving and bussing)

I came in expecting a typical restaurant experience, but I was surprised by the quality of the food! It's best to go with someone else or a group; will not regret it! For what it was worth, it kept me satisfied and full. Highly recommend this location to anyone.

I have been coming here since I was a teenager! All of the food is fantastic. Highlights are the tempura yam rolls, beef teriyaki and chicken Katsu combo.
