Went for dinner at opening time and there was no wait and restaurant was basically empty which I like. Immediately greeted and sat and provided menus. The service was outstanding, maybe due to how busy the establishment was at the time, but nonetheless outstanding!! Our waitress was very kind, attentive, and pleasant. The food was all soooooo good. Started with the soft shell crab which when delivered to the table had a small flame in the middle;great presentation!!! The fish was very fresh , and you could see the chefs making all the sushi to order which is great. Toll sizes were normal size about 8 pieces and all were delivered at once which I like. The restaurant is a little smaller with about 15 ish tables so I'm sure it can fill up quickly when busy. Desert was also great ❤️. Loved the presentation again as the flatware was very cute as you can see in the photos. Best sushi I have had in Virginia so far ❤️❤️❤️. Prices were reasonable for the amount of shushi and sake that we ordered and would def go back. Must try

Parking: Underground parking garage that is used for the Harris teeter as well. Lots of parking which is great

We stay at the apartment above this cute sushi place for a week. On our last day we decide to give it a try, which we wish we eat here earlier as we want to come back to try few more things.

We had the lunch set maki-A and sashimi lunch box, everything tasted so fresh and yummy, and great value.

I strongly recommend you come to try the food yourself

We spent our 19th wedding anniversary dinner here. We've gotten used to going to a well known DC steak place and thought we wanted something different this year. What's drawn us here were the reviews and they are absolutely true. We got the salmon bento box (big variety of items) and 3 other specialty rolls with generous amount of meat. You definitely get what you paid for. We also had the deserts and they were all delicious. Even our daughter couldn't wait to come back again and we definitely will.

The sushi was exceptional! It was so tender it felt like it melted in your mouth. But their menu states they use crab. It’s not crab, they put the imitation crab meat. The service was not the greatest. I went there on a Sunday evening which got pretty busy and they only had one person serving and hosting. She didn't check on us and when I requested for some items she was bothered by the ask in her tone. For people with celiac’s the imitation crab meat is not gluten-free. The menus are not marked either and they are not knowledgeable of gluten-free ingredients.

Finally good sushi in south Arlington! Fish was fresh and rolls were creatively presented. Portions were a bit larger than at other places so we ended up taking some home to go . We left knowing this would be one of our new local spots to come back to soon.

Service was so thoughtful and attentive. All of our sushi was extremely fresh and delicious. Portions were generous, and pricing was very reasonable. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great sushi spot that is clearly run by people who care. The chef even came out to check in on us and also sent a couple of extra treats for our table. Don't hesitate, dine here today and tomorrow!! These people deserve your patronage!

Excellent sushi and sashimi , with lots of variety. The bento boxes are an excellent value. The staff and the owner are super friendly. It is a little out of the way, in retail shops next a Harris Teeter, but well worth the effort to find.

Finally a solid sushi restaurant in this area. Recommend the calamari tempura appetizer and anything you get here is going to be great. Our table had the sushi dinner, chirashi, and poke bowl and everyone loved their dish.
The restaurant is very clean and quiet and the service is amazing as well. They have high chairs for kids and there is free parking underground.
Will be a repeat customer for sure.
