Okay the last time 2 times I went here I was quite disappointed in the quality of the food and the quality of the cuts of fish and preparation. The last couple times have been just so sad. I used to love this place but for $33 there are much better places that make a better quality nigiri. I don’t know if management is aware they are cheaping out. But they need to. I won’t be coming back and won’t get my money again. Just not good. Not good at all.

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.

Food came out hot. Waitresses were pleasant and knowledgeable on the menu. Place is clean and smells good. Ordered crab Rangoon but it’s cheese Rangoon eliminating the crab. It’s a cheeper version and doesn’t taste as good. However just don’t order the Rangoon. Looks like they have all you can eat sushi. Which is a plus! And they have hibachi which is delicious. I will come again. Good restaurant and tasty food!

It makes me so sad to write this review as my family has been coming here for years. Within the past year and a half or so I’ve noticed a huge decline in the food quality and cleanliness here. The gyoza is no longer steamed it’s fried and tastes like it came out of a bag straight from the freezer. The scallops are also not the same. They fry them in what I believe to be old oil because that’s all they taste of. Many of the breaded/ fried appetizers are like this now. The amount of grease that comes off of them is honestly quite disgusting as well, it never used to be this way. (Picture to show) The last visit I had here the fish seemed off and color was odd. My husband and I both thought it looked old.. The very last straw was seeing tons of fruit fly/ gnats all over the restaurant. They had fly traps hanging abundantly right by the drink refill area. One of the gnats ended up in my water cup. If bugs are this bad in the winter months I don’t want to imagine the summer. We won’t be back.
