I wonder if we stopped by on an off night? We ordered online for pickup a several of hours before closing on a Friday and arrived right at the estimated time for pickup. We were handed a takeout bag with its top neatly tied and went home (which wasn't a far trip, less than 10 minutes). When we got home, we opened the bag to find the wateriest and soggiest sushi I have ever seen. Most of the rolls fell apart as we attempted to pick them up with first chopsticks, then our fingers, and finally we attempted to hold a taste with spoons. Each item was so unsatisfying that we gave up and couldn't even eat 90% of what we received. The rice was mushy, there was mysterious liquid at the bottom of every takeout container that was as viscous as water. The roe pearls washed off the sushi and floated around... and most disturbingly is that the octopus sashimi was so off that my guest heard and audible popping sound when I bit into it. It was like biting into fish that was defrosted in a flash after being freezerburnt.

Absolutely TERRIBLE!! They serve the food in to go containers. Service was terrible as well!

Editing my review because I spoke with the owner and they amended the situation. Very respectful and very nice staff.Parking: Restaurant has paid street or temporary short term street parking.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a single step to enter and exit the restaurant. We did not see a ramp available.

The food was good but it’s very weird to go k to a sit down restaurant, order food and have it all come out in plastic to-go trays.

Love the Food! Been coming here a while. In restaurant dining is quiet at least the times I've visited. Nice place to go and have a chat.

Honestly the best sushi I have ever had. The rolls are soft and velvety- If you never thought about this with sushi roles you should. This place is a 10/10!

I was dining in but they served everything in a take out box and there's no wasabi. The rolls with peanut crumbs and the other one with cheese are both warm and confusing - it doesn't taste like a typical sushi in a bad way. The soft shell crab is over fried and has no texture or juice inside.

I’ve order so many times in the past few weeks from Uber eats because of how amazing this sushi is!! I’ve had a bit of a sushi craving recently and gotten a bunch of different places in Philly and this has been the best so far. It’s amazing

I placed an order through Grubhub for delivery. I never received the order, though I received notice that it had been delivered. Only thereafter, upon contacting Grubhub, was my order canceled. Whether the issue was with the restaurant or with Grubhub, is not discernible. What is, is this reviewer found their experience one that left them extremely hangry. if this was an error, I hope the restaurant gives me an opportunity to give them a second chance and review their food, instead of the lack thereof.
Got a dinner bento box through DoorDash.Pros: Got here fast Everything tasted fine/good Cons:Really bad bang for your buck The California roll was mostly avocado and I've had better California rolls at cheaper places. The chicken katsu (pictured) is so thin you wonder how much meat you're getting. The mochi was a store bought mochi (not a huge surprise) so the mark-up was crazy at nearly $5 for 2 pieces. I'd probably order here again if I needed fast delivery between zoom meetings (when I forget to eat all day), but wouldn't necessarily come back.

Great food! Great and fast service! Super reasonable pricing! The food is always prepared correctly as ordered and fast! Worth the drive :)

Such a cute spot that I cant believe I've never noticed before! Really small but nice inside. Food was really good and it was ready so quickly! We ordered at around 3pm so it was pretty quiet inside but there were a few orders already ready for pickup so it must be quick service regularly. The only downside was the tuna tartare was really smushy which isn't my preference. I prefer it to be in chunks so I wasn't too excited about that. Other than that it was really good!

Food was overall all good and yum but couple severs were not hygiene not washing their hands after using restroom and always hasty in rush. Most of waiters had bad attitude and manners I don’t understand why
