I've had this on my list because it was recommended and the reviews are good, but honestly thought it might just be another average overpriced sushi spot, which is common is SoCal unfortunately.
I walked by it one day not on purpose, and was drawn by the happy hour menu and it looked attractive with a modern colorful design, bright with large windows (most sushi spots are dark), and outdoor seating too.
The happy menu is more extensive than most, and I enjoyed the taste, portion size and price of the rolls and sake that ordered.
My server Rachael was exceptional - friendly, attentive, followed up frequently and was constantly making are I was taken care of (clearing plates, refilling my tea without me asking, asking if I needed anything). It was pretty busy too, which is a good sign, but I never felt ignored or had to flag her down.
The other staff I interacted with was super friendly and seemed to care about what I needed and my experience there.
Doggie alert! I noticed there were a few dogs inside that I barely noticed because they were so well behaved. They have a dog menu and rewards program.
I would definitely come back for the happy hour or to try the regular menu and recommend this place!!
