There aren’t enough words to describe how incredible the food is here. Japan is my favorite country I’ve ever been to and when I say the food here tastes like I’m sitting in the middle of Tokyo, I’m not lying. The sushi chef is extremely talented and kind and the rest of the staff is just as welcoming and delightful. 10/10 highly recommend

One of the best omakase experiences in Philadelphia. Rivals any sushi bar in Tokyo. Reasonably priced, hidden gem…take advantage before they inevitably blow up. Better than many of the other more well known omakases in the city that cost twice as much. Truly authentic experience. You feel like you’re right back in Tokyo and the fish is just as fresh. Service was impeccable and incredibly friendly!

The verdict: the food was excellent—we’ll definitely be...
