"Great food, atmosphere and service! This was my 1st time visiting. My waiter was very patient and helpful while I was ordering. I will definitely be visiting again!♡"

Niki Lynch

"the waitress was nice but incredibly young & inexperienced. The sushi chef got my order wrong & slathered it with eel sauce (which was not on the menu, by the way). The booths were a bit snug for a larger person and to top it off... the ginger dressing gave me food poisoning. We had to leave our movie early cuz I was in the bathroom throwing up. It made this couples date nite a total flop. Don't waste your time, your money, or put your health at risk. The robot ain't worth it."

Tara Ellis

"Not bad at all, good prices, but the place have a lack of cleaning and smells funny. The onions in the mixed vegetables tasted bad, like vinegar. That was my first time there, I don't know if that is normal or not. In other hand the salad was very good and both dressings are delicious. The blue drink is a Ramune is not too sweet as other sodas are."

Very good for cheap sushi, tastes great. Portions are very good, two rolls filled me up. I enjoyed the Crab Rangoon the most, super delicious. All was fresh, would definitely eat here again.". "food exceeded my expectations. Quality of the Spicy Yellowtail Roll good. Miso Soup packed with goodies and arrived at a perfect temp. Shrimp Fried Rice seasoned wonderfully. I forgot to order eating utensils but that's my rookie mistake.
