You can tell a place is great when you're writing your review while still enjoying your meal! Without a doubt, this is the best unagi I've ever tasted. We also tried the sashimi and nigiri, all of which were incredibly fresh! Even though we live in the South Bay, this will definitely be our favorite sushi spot in the East Bay! The service was friendly, too!
Small cozy sushi place. Ingredients very fresh. Friendly chefs and service staff. Very hospitable. Nothing fancy, want some tasty sushi try out this place when you in the neighborhood.
Delicious sushi! My family visits this restaurant every other week due to the consistently excellent food, quick service, and a calm yet joyful ambiance.
