After reading great Yelp reviews, we ordered several rolls from here for a family party to create a sushi board myself. From placing the order to pick up, it was so smooth and the staff is VERY friendly! The prices are also super reasonable with the 50% off (40% for pick up). The woman who answered the phone was thorough and kind to accommodate the pickup time. Also, when you walk inside, the staff is smiling and everyone is welcoming. Wish I lived locally to be able to dine-in, but I'll remember them for the next time I'm in the area! Thank you!

I use to come here with my friends for my birthday month, but years have passed and now I go here alone on my bday month because my friend moved away. They give you free ice cream green tea tempura for your bday month. They sing to you if you want them to, but I wasn't feeling it that day so I chose not to do it. I got way too much food and didn't realize the sashimi & veggies was basically a poki bowl. It didn't say it comes with rice and I ordered a house salad. So way too much salad. The fish is decent, but the best deals they have are the half off sushi rolls & hand rolls. Service was excellent. They are attentive & friendly. This place always has plenty of tables so you never wait. I've only waited a couple times in the past because it was busy. I came here after a nail appointment and I was just like, WTH why not? ‍

It's our favorite local spot for sushi, for weekday lunch, dinner and for family celebrations. Located next to the Ralph's grocery store in a strip mall. We've been going here for the last few years and it has been consistently good as far as customer service, value & food. Aside from sushi, they also have different dishes like Hot Stone Bibimbap or Bulgogi. They always have a 50% off sushi side on the menu. It has a consistently good vibe and recently, we celebrated my son's birthday and they made it really fun! The server all gave us various hats to wear while the music came on and they brought a dessert (on the house). Great chill place to get some good food and sip on some Kirin or plum wine or for low-key celebrations. You won't be disappointed!

Always our favorite and to be the duke in our last visit (for a year or so) is outrageous! Suschi 3 ways is Deb's fave and always so fresh. The rolls are all good and discounted every night. Shrimp tempura is bombish. Drinks great and lastly Kevin who runs the kitchen is the best with his staff. See you again after Cabo.

Ate here a long time ago last year with some old friends, remember it being quite well! The food was extremely tasty and is very good sushi, sadly I do not remember the orders we had gotten. Very fresh tasting fish. The area was nice and the building was very welcoming, and the staff did a generally nice job staying attentive and allowing us to enjoy. Pricing was also really great for the quality you receive, so definitely a good sushi spot of choice if in the area, will not disappoint
