"I went with a friend who lives here f/t. I was craving sushi. We each had sushi for dinner, dessert and drinks. It was great, good service and the food was sooooo good. It's been one of my favourite times here."
Renee Kimber
"They should stick to just making Italian food if they are going to take an 1 hour making sushi. The service wasn’t good. The server just spent her time talking. Didn’t even offer to fill my empty drink. The only reason I left 2 stars was because the sushi was at least good."
Cesar Cancino
"The waitress thought we said “vaca(cow)” instead of VODKA the drink. The bartender had a nasty attitude. My ravioli was Cold on the inside and was also wrong! I didn’t ask for pesto, I asked for butter base. Spicy tuna roll IS NOT A SPICY TUNA ROLL! I’m praying we don’t get sick! For $70 USD, it’s absolutely not worth it. In fact, if it was free, it wouldn’t be worth it."
