Such a nice cozy spot! Not really busy during noon which is convenient because I was able to place my order right away. The wait was a little bit long- My order was completed in 30 mins from when I ordered (granted there were a family of 4 before me and then a customer right after I ordered. Plus not many workers as thus this being a small express/go restaurant. Knocked off a point because this place gives small portions and I paid $44 for two meals🥲

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Overall, the food had great flavor, but there were a few misses. The salmon and thinly sliced beef were unfortunately overcooked and dry. On the other hand, the tempura sides and shrimp were delicious and well-prepared. Disappointed in the California roll in each bento; it was hard, fell apart easily, and seemed like it had been refrigerated before serving.

Absolutely fabulous place! We think it’s the best sushi in the Woodbury/Oakdale area. A nice and cozy place with very creative artwork on the walls. The shogun roll is very tasty and spicy. The spicy tuna roll is the best we’ve had. Highly recommend this place!
