One of the better sushi restaurants in Milwaukee. Food is consistently good. Service can sometimes be slow, but they seem short staffed when that has been the case. Having worked in the service industry when I was younger I know it's not easy on the staff who are working when that is the case, as frustrating as it can be as the customer.

Absolutely amazing sushi, the Chef is welcoming and actually talked to us about our meal. Sushi is fresh sauces are vibrant and parking was easy to find. Wholeheartedly recommend and would go again. Thanks for an amazing date night. Ps the California dragon was my favorite roll.

Food was ok. Not the best and not the worst. The tuna was kind of bland tasting. They HAVE to clean their ceiling. I wasn't looking for negative things about the place, but the ceilings are VERY dirty, almost looks like mold up there. Waitress was good though.
