Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the sushi itself, praised as fresh, flavorful and beautifully presented, with the octopus balls and the spicy salmon crunch named as standouts. Korean boa buns, the pumpkin bread and the curry also earn mentions, and one first-time sushi eater loved it. Service comes up repeatedly as friendly, and a few describe the music and atmosphere as nice, including chilled jazz in the background. Several mention returning often, and one says a picky elderly parent loved it. Families note the kids enjoyed every dish. The one recurring complaint is small: a reviewer found it cold inside during winter because the place is not very big, and a gust of cold air came in whenever customers entered or left. That same reviewer suggests visiting in warmer weather. Another reviewer describes food that arrived hot from an order, with a friend or family member now recommended it to.
