    Best sushi in town hands down, nicest staff ever, and best presentation of sushi in town, this place has never disappointed. Try your sushi with soy paper for a change up, also the spicy girl roll :)

    Order the crab rangoons as soon as you arrive -- they're the most delicious, flavorful crab rangoons I've tasted and can buy you some time while you choose your rolls.

    Supreme service, presentation is ultra artistic, and the sushi...to die for! Let's give these masters a reason to expand. What a well kept secret.

    Tried the Jalapeño yellowtail. Fantastic. Tuna amazing, really good. 2n1 crunch was delicious. Friendly service, and quick even though it was packed!

    Try the L.A. Roll -- smoked salmon, mozzarella cheese and avocado, deep fried and served with a special sauce. It's a surprising blend of flavors.
