Delicious, fresh food. The sushi, sashimi and even the hibatchi meal were delicious. I was slightly confused by the tempura ice cream coating being a little different than expected, but still delicious. The fried bananas were tasty. The hot tea has delightful wood notes. The service was good. Our waiter was attentive. We'll definitely be repeat customers. I'm not understanding the weird lighting in the restroom, but it was clean.
I read all the reviews about this place and they were right on. Great food, the chicken satay was special a more gourmet peanut sauce. We tried Malaysian curry and it is very good, a refined curry with a little kick and the sushi was great quality. The place is small, clean and the staff are amazing. I will be back often!!
Very pleasantly surprised by this small sushi restaurant in SI. I have been craving Santa Barbara Uni for awhile and I definitely did not want to go into the city or Brooklyn. I was thrilled to find that this restaurant had both Uni and Toro! The Uni is fresh with a sweet buttery aftertaste (we went on a Monday evening). Yumm. As you can tell from the pics, we ordered one piece each to try before ordering a few more Uni pieces after we realized it was FRESH (old Uni is so uck) ! We also ordered the toro belly which melted in my mouth. It was ssooo good. I usually find Oh-toro to be a bit too fatty for my preference but their toro belly is between an Oh-toro and Chu toro which is PERFECT for me. I also enjoyed the Madai and the ebi shrimp head! The Ebi was a little too mushy for my preference.
Each sushi had just enough rice and vinegar was not overpowering or taking away from the fish. I am not sure why some of the reviews complain there is too little rice. If you want rice order it on the side? Sushi is not suppose to have too much rice!!! We also order the Staten Island roll which was fairly good but too filling for me. Service was excellent and the workers picking up the phone were very nice as well. I certainly will be back to try the other items on their menu. I did not enjoy the smoked salmon (taste like costco smoked salmon) and wagu (recommendation to make this last as it was served cold and needed a little more torching). I would also recommend a quick torching on the madai pieces to give the skin an extra char. Otherwise excellent fish selection!!!
Best sushi place in the island. Good quality of fish and worth the price. You probably find the price little more than other sushi place but it’s worth it. I recommend this place.
I go here specifically for the amazing ginger dressing they make. They sell it in pint or quart size and it's one of the best I have tasted out here. I can't really speak on the food yet but if you're looking for authentic Japense ginger dressing this is the place to get it!
its always a pleasant experience. thats why we love this place.
I love eating here. The place is always clean and modern. The staff are attentive and conversationa, but the food is fantastic! I ordered the salmon teriyaki bento which came with hot miso soup, sashimi, california rolls, kimchi, salad, veggies, wasabi, and rice. The food tasted delicous and the plateing was a feast for the eyes.
This was a delicious treat! Midline pricing, smiling staff, fresh food & drinks served. Parking can be found across the street in the Stop n Shop plaza. I was shocked that I liked it so much lol. From the outside, it just looks like another regular sushi place. Give it a shot!
2019.08 omakase sashimi good, Thai dish also yummy. They have basic bubble tea and fruit tea.
it is Monday. Quiet. Ordered chef special sushi. Not bad good price with 2 toro and toro roll this time. It is 9 pieces sushi and a roll. Will try chef sashimi next time
I don't usually write reviews. But I feel obliged to do so after being here. I came all the way from Flushing to try this place out. Japanese restaurant are everywhere. But its hard to find a decent one with high quality and reasonable price. The price was beyond reasonable, if I were to order the same thing in other Japanese restaurant in the city or long island, the price would be 40-60% more expensive. This is a family restaurant and they are delicated to Asian cuisine. Mainly Chinese and Japanese. The sashimi is a definite try. Besides the price, the quality and freshness of them are just exceptional. Plus, staffs are friendly and helpful. Don't take my words for it, go try it out. I promise you won't regret it.
