I ordered a spicy california roll and a crunch roll with spicy tuna on top. The california spicy roll was very good and i enjoyed the level of spicy on that roll not too hot or too low just right to feel it..! Also the crunch roll topped with tuna was very good. My co workers enjoyed and said was good ! One co worker ask where was the place. She said she was going visit also lol.

I went with someone and I really loved the salmon avocado roll. We both got that And one other thing. The salmon avocado was fresh and perfect combination. The presentation was gorgeous and the plates were beautiful. Would go back there again!

The sushi was so tasty, and they added a great amount of salmon and avocado. The rice was soft, the perfect consistency honestly. The bulgogi plate had ALOT of beef in it, and the carrots & veggies complimented the plate so well. i loved this place and the person who took my order was such nice man. Support this business!

SO GOOD! Just moved to this area and have been trying to find a sushi spot. This was my first place to try and so far I don’t wanna go anywhere else. We ate there, instead of to go. She brought over eel sauce, spicy mayo, wasabi/ginger, salt and Siracha without even asking which was exceptional!! Food is really good & the place is SUPER clean. Will be coming back for sure! I also liked how they had a free water thing with cups

Worth a visit - I recommend! Bento’s chicken and beef teriyaki are great. 3 Roll [special] for 33 is fairly priced and good quality. I would definitely consider returning. The restaurant has a good variety of offerings. Notice me, Mr Kim! haha
