I've always heard good things about this place. Tried getting take out there for the first time tonight and was extremely disappointed... I am a sushi lover, but the two rolls I ordered were absolutely terrible! The shrimp tempura was way over cooked, borderline burnt, and the spicy mayo sauce was more like pure drizzled mayonnaise... The teriyaki chicken was watery and very bland. I will never eat there again. Beware! They must have paid people to leave positive reviews.

I don't know if I can recommend this restaurant yet. They got our order wrong. We ordered salmon roe, but got salmon instead. Of course the roe cost more. I bet they were out of the salmon roe and just substituted, but of course I was not told and the roe I paid for cost more. The sea urchin roe was almost tasteless. Not sure how that happened. Previously frozen maybe? I honestly dont know. Apparently I am supposed to eat my miso soup with chop sticks some how because no spoon was included, but they did give us 2 sets of chop sticks. They place was relatively slow this evening in my opinion, so I don't know what happened. The gyoza were the smallest dumplings I have ever seen. They were a bit bland too, but at least they were not overpowered by onion like some other places. The miso soup was a bit bland too. It had mushrooms in it, which is a bit unusual, but that didn't help the general wateriness it had in general. However, everything else I did get was fresh and flavorful, so I had to give 2 stars overall. I am not writing the place off all together and would like to try them again, but I will be thoroughly checking my order before I leave next time. I don't think I will be ordering the sea urchin roe or gyoza again though. Finally, they don't have delivery. Google says that they do, but when I called, they said they do not. Not sure if this is a Google error or what, so I give that a pass.

Great place. Service was stellar- Per chance her name was Mythili. Food was good, I had the sushi which i enjoyed. laid back place with a nice vibe.
