Overall just a lot of like cooking mistakes in my experience - dry/hard Shari for some pieces, neta that was messed up/cut and trimmed poorly, and over + undercooked appetizers. More subjectively I also had issues with the seasoning of some pieces as well - some were too salty or had a dashi that was too strongly flavored while others didn’t have enough salt. I’ve been here a few times before and I know it’s not usually this bad, but this was a pretty big miss for me on a criteria that I think is fairly objective. I think with so many quality alternatives at this price point, it’s hard to justify coming here.

For sashimi lover, this is not your place. Only sushi were served. The most annoying things are the chef and assistants used bare hands to prepare and serve sushi and all other food. They use one napkin / wipe to clean all people’s plates between courses.

Love the food and the service and everything. The only issue is the customers next to us are so loud that affect our experience. Overall really love this restaurant. Highly recommend.

Memorable meal from start to finish. Very creative dishes prepared with acute attention to quality, taste and aesthetics. A special occasion restaurant, but still very relaxed and friendly. Fun to watch the chef preparing dishes, admiring his knife skills. We are so fortunate to have this level of quality in the South Bay.

A few truly spectacular pieces, a few misses though nothing bad, would give 5/5 still but the prices are just way too high.

The best sushi that I ever had including some expensive sushi restaurants in Japan. Definitely worth a special trip to try. The 9 seats restaurant was great for the very personal service provided.
