    Food was not worth all the price. I expected the quality and service to be like the original location in Chandler, but everything failed. I saw my server ONCE when I placed the order, and nothing after that. One of the appetizers never came until we finished the food, so we canceled, and they never said sorry or anything. NEVER WILL BE COMING BACK TO THIS LOCATION. DON'T THINK ABOUT COMING TO THIS LOCATION, INSTEAD HEAD OVER TO THEIR ORIGINAL LOCATION IN CHANDLER FOR BETTER SERVICE AND FOOD!!

    Great fresh seafood. Kate and V were great servers. A bit on the pricey side but worth every dollar.

    Outstanding. As good as any Japanese restaurant in the Seattle area, and as good as I’ve had in Japan.

    Went for a date night and was not disappointed. The sushi was not your run of the mill sushi, it was amazing. The cocktail were definitely something you must try as well.
