Amazing!!! I love sushi and this is some of the best I’ve ever had. Everything was so fresh—from the fish to the veggies and even the ginger, you can tell it’s all high quality. We also had the chicken fried rice and it was flavorful and delicious. Our waitress was so sweet and the atmosphere great—clean and well decorated. We’ll be back for sure!

The food here was so good! And the portion sizes are huge. We could not finish our meal and we came in starving 😁 The owners were very sweet and accommodating. They had a discount for some items for their grand opening which was nice! We can’t wait to come again to check out some different sushi rolls. Highly recommend this place if you’re in the area and craving sushi, or rice or teriyaki! Everything was delicious

What a hidden gem! My wife and I found this place the other night and we couldn’t have been more delighted. The staff was incredibly nice, and the sushi was delicious! The spicy tuna and hamachi dragon rolls were especially noteworthy. Can’t wait to come back!

Great food, kind servers and people who care about their product. The decor is more modern Asian dinner (purple and white are the main colors), that wasn’t quite our vibe, but the food and service made up for it. Very reasonable cost for the quality of what we were served. Will definitely go back again!

Today I ordered for the first time from this place, Chirashi Sushi and Chicken Fried Rice, for delivery with DoorDash. The food was very good and the delivery was on time. I will try to go personally soon.

Go to this place! This is a top-notch sushi restaurant with very reasonable prices. And...they pretty much always throw in a free dish with your order. The couple that owns this place couldn't be sweeter. The presentation is beautiful and the flavors are outstanding. I'm so happy to have a local spot that is so great!

I love this place! The owners were so nice, we were the only people there and we enjoyed talking to them. The food was great and they even showed us their ramen machines, giving a free ramen to my daughter. The vibe was really nice in there, I loved all the purple and it just felt calming in there.

Saw an article share this place just opened up & it did not disappoint. They've got 30% off Deluxe Rolls & Boxed Entrees as their grand opening special going on right now. We splurged and got 2 Deluxe rolls (Wajo Deluxe with 5 fish, avocado, cucumber; Spider Dragon Deluxe with soft shell crab & eel). But the surprise delight was the Cheese Crunch Special roll that's got crab, tuna, but topped with crunchy Cheetos & this awesome mango sauce that brings the flavors together in the most amazing way!! Also, solid miso soup & traditional seaweed salad that I always crave with sushi. Great service, fresh, well constructed & creative rolls with lovely presentation. We'll def be back!

This place was surprisingly really good! I went on a random day craving sushi and saw this shop! Although the exterior may look like it's closed, the interior has beautiful ambient lighting which makes it look really aesthetic and pretty! The workers there were very nice and very accommodating. I ordered the Smoked Salmon Philly Roll and the Spicy Tuna Roll. They tasted delicious and they even added different sauces on the side. The lady working was so nice and she gave me a complimentary miso soup. I definitely would recommend this to my friends and family and I'll definitely will be coming back soon!

Small friendly restaurant off Lincoln Ave that serves excellent sushi for take out or eating in. The ambience seems like it's from the early 2000s future if that is your aesthete.
