“ Amazing sushi here. The fish is really fresh. The rolls are pretty big portions. Everything tastes amazing and goes well. Pretty much the best sushi I've ever had except some of the rolls are pretty spicy. We ordered a little too much and the price came out a little high, But you only need to order like one or two rolls per person honestly. We got literally like seven rolls and everything came out amazing. Not a single miss. The vibe and ambiance is lively and The service is phenomenal. All the waiters are very kind and The food came out really really fast like really really fast. Everything about the this place is Wonderful! Coming back here another time. ”
“ Very unassuming place but serves good food. Ordered 2 lunch bentos, and the beef teriyaki was made just right, and the tuna roll was one of the best presented and served!! Also ordered the tonkatsu ramen with great flavor broth+ meat n noodles. It's a thumbs up for us. ”
“ A new family tradition is born. One week visit to see the family had dinner here twice. It's rare when the whole family is satisfied at the same time. Just my experience, they gave bigger portions just before closing time. If you are in LA for a visit or residence give them a try. You'll love it. Can't wait until my next trip. Just found out the tip was charged with the bill. I guess they got me twice. I will never go back to this place again. Just remember her face counting the cash as we walked out. Totally uncool. Thanks, Lorenzo for dropping the knowledge. ”
