Old school place. Portions are kinda small but the food is good. Their special is the pumpkin fried rice. The draft beer is ice cold. And they give a pot of tea even if one person has it. Rolls use imitation crab tho.

This place has gone downhill. The lady with the blue hair is rude and unprofessional. She sat us at a table without checking if it was cleared off first. We had extra menu’s and other items. I wouldn’t recommend them to

Came here for a work lunch, while I don't have a lot of experience eating sushi, everything was delicious and we didn't feel rushed at all.

Our favorite Japanese restaurant on the east side. Some of our favorite items include the kabocha fried rice, chicken katsu dinner, mackerel / saba, albacore tataki salad, any of the sushi and tempura. It can get busy here for dinner on the weekend, so I suggest reservations.

The food here is mediocre. It's not the best sushi place as the rice is on the dry side and the tiger tail roll we had wasn't very tasty. Service was okay but we had to ask for the waitress to take our order. The best dish was the pumpkin fried rice. Pumpkin was perfectly tender and wok crispy flavored fried rice. This isn't a Japanese owned restaurant and lacking in decor.
Besides the parking issue I had a few weeks ago, this is a great Japanese restaurant. Never pretentious or overly crowded, but simple and delish food.

Food quality and taste are very different now. Orders: -Sushi & Sashimi combo basically is a repeat of the same type of fish in sushi n sashimi. How boring.... The fish quality is not awesome in the first place. Now, it took a deep dive. There is no fresh seafood flavor in them. -Deluxe Sushi Combo fish quality is same as above. Especially, the eel sushi contains so much small bones. I choked on it once and thinking should I spill out the whole thing; awful, or trying to spill out the bones only. Omg.... How awkward and awful to experience... -Deep fried oysters are my go to whenever I come here. I returned the same dish to them last time because of foul oysters. I was thinking oh well once in a blue moon type of situation. I ordered it again. The oyster is not foul but not fresh either. It's just not good eats. -Extra ginger and wasabi costs additional $1.50 when seeing the bill. -It's nice to have a small parking lot in Old Bellevue area. -Service is jiffy and staff are very busy trying to care for all tables. -If you speak/understand Cantonese, this is a cozy place to dine and entertainment among this traditional complex dialect. People in kitchen, counter, server and customers spoke alike. All in all, I lost another casual sushi place as far as food taste and quality in my book in the area.

Food was okay but not as good as I expected. Not as authentic as it could be. Ling waiting time is not worth it
