One of the best in Philly, a rare find of exceptional sushi and service—overall great vibe!
Last night had Toro Tartare, my daughter’s favorite the Butter Crab Roll, YKI Chirashi, many other between the four of us.
The manager, Kat, is a consummate professional, efficient and warm, yesterday resolved a reservation mistake I made—why it’s always our first choice!
Staff and service have consistently been fantastic the dozen or more times...read full review
