the worst sushi I've ever had. we ordered a sortiment from simple hand rolls to special rolls and it was just so much rice it was intense. the rolls were so creepy, even a basic Californian roll did not even look appetizing. the hibachi was terrible, the rice hd no taste, the noodles were immensely cooked until they were not even edible. not even the sweet was edible because they were so salty. I'm not saying that to blow the device because we really want it. the service was half ok next to the waitress was super attentive until it was annoying. that is not Japanese food, so please don't come here and expect authentic sushi. we ordered the Latin roll to try the hype of the place, and it was...

This charming restaurant serves delicious food. We tried the sushi rolls and hibachi, both of which were fantastic. The spicy tuna and sweet potato rolls stood out as highlights. The beef hibachi was exceptional—the meat was tender and practically melted in my mouth. The rice was wonderfully buttery, and the accompanying vegetables were incredibly appetizing. The prices are reasonable, and the service is attentive; the staff really make an effort to ensure a good experience. They offer a diverse menu as well. There’s some parking available at the front, but spaces are limited.
Beware of DoorDash! I received only half of my order. The woman who handled my order didn't notice that I had selected a quantity of 2 for each item. When I called to address the issue, she was insistent that there was no mistake. However, when I mentioned the total amount charged, she finally acknowledged the error. Unfortunately, she told me that my only option was to pick it up myself. What’s the point of using DoorDash then? When I went to collect the order and was leaving the restaurant, she sarcastically wished me, "Have a nice day."
Unfortunately I made the mistake of relying on other reviews in trying this restaurant for the first time. Freshness of food is highly questionable. Tuna was a dark grey/brown color. Hibachi steak had a sour after taste. For sushi, there was a higher ratio of rice to fish; not to mention it wasnt even sushi rice, just regular medium grain rice was used. Presentation of sushi came in a pasta bowl. Bottom line is if you're looking for a very non traditional sushi spot you may want to consider this and hope you don't get sick. Book a table now
I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. The prices were very high, but the quality was disappointing. The sushi was poorly made and fell apart easily. The meat was tough and hard to chew, lacking any tenderness. I wouldn’t recommend wasting your time here. It was a complete letdown, and I definitely won’t be returning.
The seating is not that comfortable. The ambiance is a bit lacking. It took a while for sushi to come out. The waitress was nice. The food wasnt bad but there is a lot of sushi places that make the same stuff. There isnt really any thing special or unique to me about this place.
I will never return to this restaurant. I ordered online through Yelp and was charged more than expected because the owner claimed I used a credit card. The food was also disappointing. Overall, I’m very frustrated with my experience.
Have yet to sit down but their indoor arrangement looks so comfy. But as always when I order from their the food is fresh and yummy. Especially love the dressing the put on their salads. Book a table now
The Fuji Roll is exceptional! It has a lovely and comfortable ambiance, accompanied by delicious food and excellent service. Plus, it's a BYOB, which is an added bonus!
The dining experience was fantastic! I enjoyed everything, especially our server Claudia. The ambiance was wonderful, and the music was delightful too.
