Customer Reviews
I dined here at the sushi bar for the first time this year (Saturday night, 11-9-2024)! I usually order about $100-$200 of take out! It was a GREAT experience! The main dining room was PACKED, so thankfully, I had the sushi bar area to myself! Anyway, for appetizers, I had the Golden Lobster, Golden Shrimp and Shrimp Shumai Dumplings (which were so pillowy soft and delicious)! Then for entree, I had a Salmon Skin Handroll, Spicy Tuna Handroll, and a ton of nigiri: Uni/Sea Urchin, Salmon, Fatty Salmon, Tuna, Fatty Tuna, Yellowfin Tuna, Mackerel, Ikura/Salmon Roe, Spicy Tobiko/Flying Fish Roe, and Tamago/Scrambled Egg! My total bill was $190!!! It was well worth it because I had the sushi bar area to myself, got to watch these cool blues videos on the flat screen TV, and have a nice time talking with Owner/Executive Chef Mr. Lee! I will, of course, be back for more awesome sushi! By the way, you can only dine in on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights! You can do take out on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights! They're closed on Mondays!
Mr. Lee and family have been one of our favorite sushi places! We drive 40 min to get here!
Very tasty! Most authentic Japanese restaurant we've been to since we moved here. Only has dine in Friday, Saturday, and Sunday but can do take out the rest of the week (according to the sign). Fantastic portions for the price. The noise level was perfect. Small sushi bar so if that's your vibe and it's busy you might have to wait. We will definitely be coming back!
Such a cute place for date night!! Colors are so vibrant yet the place is so low key and cute they are so nice and attentive. The service is a bit slow do to the master piece they come out with. The dishes are so well put together they don't just throw the sushi on a plate and call it a day the presentation is key and they are so good at that. Now let's talk about the dishes... They are so delicious! The fish is so fresh so vibrant, the taste is like no other the portions are big, we usually order alot because sushi sizes can be so small but in here they are big portions so hopefully you have a huge appetite. I love sushi and have gone to so many places but I find the small businesses to be more worth the money and they are definitely worth it . Drinks and dinner with my love was so romantic in this place after a hard day at work we came to unwind and that's exactly what it felt like in here.. It's perfect for families,date night or just for a couple of friends out for drinks and great food..
We had heard good things about this place and decided to try it. When we entered, there was a private party in progress. We were told our only option was take out and that it would take an hour. We agreed to that, ordered, and came back an hour later. Our food was ready and we returned home. The Canada salad was a lump of cooked salmon with a ton of mayonnaise on top of greens. I despise cooked salmon and was assuming it was raw, so I can’t tell you more about that because I didn’t eat it. The wasabi shiu mai tasted like ground pork with no seasoning: so boring I gave up after two of those. The rice in the sushi was dry and undercooked. The rolls were boring; no imagination in their construction or their seasoning. So disappointing! The fish itself was fresh and good, so at least that was decent. All in all, we were seriously underwhelmed and will probably not be back.
