I really enjoyed the salmon dish as well as the tempura dish. The place is small so you might have to wait for a seating. You sit next to other patrons. ...

Great stop for sushi. Happy that it was open between lunch and dinner, as we were at the hospital and wanted sushi before dinner time. The place was clean and with a lot of light. You can sit on a booth or tables, no outside seating. ...

Absolutely lovely place for sushi sashimi. Simple, no frills, but fish quality is top notch, probably better than most of the fancier places Ive been to, yet for a very reasonable price.
