    Sit at the bar. See Josh for a delicious martini and order the tuna tartare. It's the best app on the menu and a staple of the restaurant for 11 years.

    If you like tuna, get the Tuna Maguro Sashimi Dinner. You'll get a generous portion of delicious, fresh tuna.

    Sea bass app, saketini, ask your waiter/waitress their fav rolls and get them... they'll never steer you wrong. Yum!

    the honey roll (white tuna) and sa-b roll (salmon tempura/avocado/jalapeno) are definitely worthy...the age tofu is also pretty tasty

    Ugh... So this is our take-out sushi... But quality just keeps getting worse. The thickest gummiest dense rolls I have ever had. Moving on Rise... Sesame Calamari is its only redeeming item.

    Not sure why I ever get the Sushi here. It's like the McDonald's of sushi. Here's a tip... Start with proper rice. The apps are good though!

    There's a better and cheaper sushi place just north of Addison. This place has mediocre sushi, but the bar and saki selection is great!
