Let me start by saying the food was very good but the options for sushi are not very extensive as far as rolls go. The negative review revolves mainly around the fact it took 45 minutes to get our food. There was only one chef making sushi and it's too long of a wait. Our second and last time here unfortunately.

The food was mediocre. The restroom condition was the absolute worst! No toilet paper and a swampy puddle, when staff was alerted, they took a long time and eventually gave 3 toilet paper rolls to a customer in line to put into the toilet dispenser. Then they hurried off not caring about the mess.

Great location for pre-event downtown dinner. Food was excellent. It has changed a bit over the past few years: pricier, but they've also stepped it up, with selections and quality to justify the higher prices. Shared warm edamame, shrimp bao buns and a Deathfree ramen bowl. Added broccolini and spice bomb to the bowl. Oddly, the broccolini was served as a side (no big deal, but a waste of a dish ;)). The spice bomb was intense--pure habanero. We didn't know what exactly was in it until we looked more closely later. Added just a bit, thank goodness, because it was so hot it made us sweat on a cold evening! Next time, we'll try the same delicious ramen with no bomb.
