The worst sushi I have had! Spent 70 bucks for takeout and tossed it in the garbage after trying 1 of each roll, very disappointing to toss 70 dollars in the garbage

We had chirashi bowl and nigiri dinner set. We were happy with the quality of the fish and the speed of the service. However, the plate that the nigiris were on looked rather old and scuffed up. We thought that they should consider upgrading their plates for better presentation, especially given the price point ($32).

Best sushi place in the area for my money. The chicken katsu is to die for, and I've never been disappointed by their specialty rolls. Their genmaicha is the perfect accompaniment to a Japanese lunch or dinner.

The best green roll I ever had. The tempura was fresh and tasty.The gyoza were decent, but not great and the service was excellent.

A great Sushi place in the heart of Downtown Kirkland! We ordered an Ultimate and TNT sushi. They were amazing! The Miso soup was comforting too! Overall a great dining experience!

Worst service I’ve ever had. The dark haired woman who ended up serving us yelled at my wife and I to sit anywhere upon arrival. after finding a spot and settling in she came up to our table and told us we couldn’t sit at a 4 top table and made us grab all of our belongings and move to a small table. After my wife tried to recover from humiliation and calm her nerves and only because we were absolutely starving did we order food and stay to eat anyway. 15 minutes went by and what happened next….they allowed 2 people to sit at a 4 top table next to us, greeted them without humiliation and not made to move or wait like they did for us. it made for such a horrible degrading experience. As two people with decades of serving experience we tip no less than 50% when we dine out if not more. We left 10% for the sole purpose of tipping out kitchen staff and bussers. She deserved nothing. the food was incredible. It’s deserves better staff as does the people who walk in to experience it. 0/10
