Great experience for our Valentines Dinner! Got the sushi and sashimi for two. Wasn’t crazy expensive only $79 and was very filling and delicious! I love how they gave so much food in portions for two people, so we both got to try new things on each bite. Super modern cozy, would recommend and will for sure go again! Service was great and respectful, host was welcoming, and props to the chefs as well for making the Sashimi so flavorful! I just had it last night, but craving it again already.

We love having a great Japanese restaurant in our neighborhood. They have the freshest fish and sashimi in the 80’s and 90’s.
