Had an amazing time! The sushi was super fresh and every piece was delicious. The chefs were awesome and really fun to watch, they made the whole experience feel special. Definitely the best sushi spot I’ve been to in the area. Can’t wait to come back!
(My only wish is that they had Sapporo on the menu.)
