Restaurant Manager Tyler went out of his way to make us as comfortable as possible with a delay in seating our party. That said it was an exceptional experience that our whole family enjoyed! Lots of laughs and good food. Exactly what we had hoped for! We will be coming back!!

Excellent food, excellent service, varied choices on the menu from sushi to fish entrees to many other types of entrees. John Howie has got a winner here, and its location away from Bellevue Square means they have to meet the demands of those who aren’t in town to just shop. And, they do that with ease. Well done, guys!

Chef Fuji-San and his wife take you on a magical tour of Japan with seasonal fish, delicious chawanmushi and beautifully curated appetizers. As a gluten free diner, the restaurant reached out to me ahead of time to try and accommodate my allergy and also made a special chawanmushi so that I could truly enjoy the experience. This is a special dining experience and special chef family.
