best sushi in town

by fontina at Citysearch

This restaurant is BYO and while the atmosphere isn't exactly anything to write home about, the sushi is great and so is the service. It isn't cheap, but it is worth it!

  • Pros: the sushi is great!
  • Cons: atmosphere isn't the best

The best sushi around

by j04 at Citysearch

The sushi is delicious and fresh and creative. The service is warm. And they deliver! The only drawback is the atmosphere, but it doesn't even matter.

The sushi of my dreams

by FoodandBeerSnob at Citysearch

If you like sushi, you will enjoy eating at this great BYOB. I have been seven times and I have never had a bad meal. I dream about their tuna pizza, and the sushi rolls are also tasty, with high-quality fish. After reading some of the bad reviews, I think you have to ask yourself if you go out to eat for the food or the ambiance. For me it?s a clear choice; I would pick the food over ambiance every time. Although it?s a tiny restaurant, it?s cozy, and the wait staff is helpful. If you go on the weekend, go by 5:30 or make a reservation. During the week you can probably walk in and get a table.

  • Pros: delicious sushi, byob
  • Cons: small, gets crowded early on weekends
