"Amazing dining experience! I arrived 10 minutes before they opened and was lucky enough to get a seat in the first seating. The setup is intimate, centered around two chefs who prepare each piece of sushi right in front of you. It’s served directly onto your plate, which ensures maximum freshness. I was able to try so many different kinds of fish, and every single bite was incredible. Definitely a must-visit, and I’ll be back for sure!"

"I really enjoyed this sushi spot. Unlike many sushi restaurants that offer combo plates, omakase, or sushi specials, this place is entirely à la carte, so you build your meal piece by piece. While that can add up quickly, the quality made it worth it for me. Every sushi item we ordered was incredibly fresh and tasted great. The fish was clean, flavorful, and clearly high quality. Nothing felt like an afterthought, and I was happy with everything we tried. Another plus is that they validate 2 hour parking in the same plaza, which made the visit much more convenient. My only minor complaint is that the pace of service was extremely fast. The sushi came out so quickly that I felt a little rushed through the meal. It's certainly better than waiting forever for food, but I would have appreciated a bit more time to relax and enjoy each round before the next dishes arrived. Overall, the food was excellent and I'd gladly return. If you're looking for fresh, high-quality sushi and don't mind ordering everything à la carte, this place is definitely worth a visit."

"My wife and I loved this place, we visited LA from the Chicago area and this was unlike anything we've encountered before. The food was amazingly fresh tasting. It was also really cool to watch them prepare the food right in front of us - so much so that I took a video of it before noticing the "no cameras" sign. - Don't be like me!"
