My dining partner and I both had the lunch specials - Kung pao with tofu and Pad See Eiw with chicken. Lots of food for the lunch special price - includes a bowl of miso soup and a small salad with ginger dressing. I like how my dish was served in a bento box - pretty cool. Only one person serving both dine in and take out but wasn't super busy and she was efficient.

Always great service when I dine in, fast delivery, wonderful owners, staff know what’s in each dish if you have dietary issues. They are willing to customize or leave out specific ingredients. They just remodeled the inside and of course, delicious food!!

I love sushi, and food here. You will love all kinds of sushi. Also the food is great. It is not super cheap, but affordable and compare to quality, it is great. The only reason that this place does not deserve a 5-star review is angry water/waitresses. They are usually slow, and they are helpful.

We had really amazing lunch with a really good price deals. Like BOGO sushi rolls and $10 lunch specials. The food itself was really delicious. The sushimi is very high quality and for the price can not be beaten. I would highly recommend the Orange sauce stir fry with Chicken. It’s a simple dish that gives you a very filling and delicious meal.

I would very much recommend this place. The sushi was really good. The orange chicken was some of the best I have ever had. The Pad Thai was almost as good as Tong Phoon in Fairview IL which was won awards for their Thai food.
