I was skeptical at first because it looked like a bit of a hole in the wall, but this place is a hidden gem! The restaurant is clean, authentic, and the sushi is incredibly fresh. I ordered the spicy tuna roll and was pleasantly surprised—it had a natural flavor without any artificial dyes or additives, which is usually a big turn-off for me. I’ll definitely be back for more!

Food and service were great. Poke were flavorful and well served for the fairly low price. Overall aspect of café is fine. However, men's restroom were extremely dirty. That alone will keep me from going back.

The first time I tried this place, it was a bit of a letdown. And I was unable to get my food. The second time, I tried it out and got my food. Omg it was the best thing ever out of all of places that offer Poke bowls. This place is by far the best. If you had a bad experience the first time, I could not beg enough to give it another shot. It's worth it.
