    The ambiance here is so unique and beautiful! Airy, romantic, stylish and peaceful. And they let us bring our puppy. The food is simple but tasty and the value is one of the best in the city! We have been many times and will continue to come for brunch OR dinner! Today I loved the chai latte and white bean shakshuka. I always bring out of town guests to show it off.

    Absolutely love eating here. It is high quality sushi at a great price. The service is amazing and there is a fun atmosphere. Great for all occasions. I really enjoy sitting at the bar but there are also tables there. While eating at the bar you get to interract with the chefs which makes it special. It is one of the better sushi spots in San Diego. The quality and service reminds me of Soichi. You will not be dissapointed.
