    They don’t add soy sauce to take out sushi which is extremely cheap and unprofessional. Their teriyaki chicken is burnt and gross and the vegetables they serve alongside dishes are just unseasoned broccoli and carrots. Generally a subpar effort by the restaurant

    Good solid sushi in large portions at neighborhood spot. Service was solid. Atmosphere was lively but the fake cherry blossom decor is kitschy. The menu is also very challenging to navigate.
