Reviews

What a lovely place! It’s really authentic and the food here is great.
Service was friendly and quick.
The vibe here is laid back and cozy, but also feels open and airy.
They had some of the best miso I’ve had and I enjoyed the sushi a lot.
Came here for a quick lunch in the middle of a road trip and was certainly not disappointed.
The toilet also had a heated seat and bidet which really reminded me of Japan.


ONE WORD: YUM 🤤 I live close to here and absolutely loved finding this little gem! I’ve heard tons of good reviews from people in the area so it was a must try! It didn’t disappoint! I went with some friends and we tried a variety of options! We ordered the edamame for starters.
Then we ordered the Oregon sushi roll, the veggie don with chicken katsu, and the Kama-Tama style Kama Age Udon with Chicken.
We topped it off with the freshly made Taiyaki with red bean and matcha ice cream! I loved every thing we ordered and highly recommend this place! 🤩


A bit on the high side but food was just ok, nothing outstanding for me, possibly great for others.
Serving size on the petite side with prices higher than the usual fare of sushi offered at other restaurants.
Place is cozy and food comes out one at a time , so you’ll have to wait for the rest of the party to get their orders.
Parking is street paid parking.
