Nice place. I love sushi but am not a connoisseur so won't comment other than we loved everything we ordered. The saki flows freely! Prices seemed reasonable. We arrived at 5:15 and it was 3/4 empty, but within 20 minutes every seat was taken (on a Monday night!) so plan accordingly.

We made a reservation earlier in the week because there were 10 of us to celebrate my birthday. It was a tight squeeze but I’m so thankful they were able to accommodate us in the Tatami room! Such a cool experience. My kids loved their chicken and noodles bento boxes. The sushi was amazing. The Celilo roll… oh my goodness. The smoked steelhead with the mustard is exquisite. Definitely a favorite. Best sushi I have ever had. Can’t wait to return. Thank you!

Had an excellent time here. Was impressed with the quality of fish, large selection that offered lesser known varieties (for example, anago and very good priced uni), and a respectable sake selection. Highly recommend.

I have eaten at a lot of Asian restaurants in my life. It’s actually my favorite kind of food. However, this might have been the worst Asian food I have ever had in my experience. The sushi rolls were not rolled tight and were larger then they are supposed to be, and my chicken teriyaki dish was halfway cooked veggies with a bit of salt and pepper on it a scoop of white rice, teriyaki chicken with a sauce that tasted like it came out of a frozen food bag. I should have known better when I noticed that whole restaurant was lacking in cultural appropriate ethnicity but I decided to give it a try anyway.

Outstanding raw menu, especially considering how far they are from the ocean!

Been here a few times, passing through and sushi was pretty good. Service has always been lackluster, perhaps due to it being understaffed for how busy it is. Today, the sushi was horrible. The rice hard and the tuna slimy. Once we expressed there may be an issue, the waiter seemed to be avoiding us. We weren't trying to avoid paying, we just wanted to leave. We had to flag down another guy, who was happy to take our money, without even asking about our nearly full dish of sushi rolls. Needless to say, we will not be returning.

Maybe they had an off night tonight ? Because they have great reviews so I had good expectations. But the sushi was rather plain. We got takeout, there was no napkins or silverware or soy sauce in the bag it was only the sushi and wasabi. The sushi really didn’t have that much flavor. No sauces were on it so it was a little bland. The avocado looked old, and the serving sizes weren’t that great.

I love the food here, service is OK. But they are always busy, they can't accommodate customers within an hour wait, and sometimes they don't accept any customers after 6:00 ??‍♀️

They were able to accommodate our party of 6 on a busy Saturday night which was a big win after a long day on the river. Friendly and very attentive servers, great food at a reasonable price.

Used to be my favorite! For many years. This summer had a much lower quality take out order. Hopefully just a one off. Photo of previous year tatami room.

Not good. Sushi was not great. Seating was limited to the bar. Service was slow and unattentive. Won't be going back. Not worth the price you pay.
