As someone who comes from the service industry and been here multiple times now, there is no method to the madness. At any given time they have ~5 servers on that are responsible for the whole restaurant, bar and patio to include taking orders, making drinks, bussing, you name it. It takes FOREVER to order anything, even if you sit at the bar. On numerous occasions, we sat with our dirty app plates in front of us while we ate dinner. Drinks are empty. If you ask a server for help they have attitudes and says they’re busy. I would love to see this place benefits from designated bartenders and servers with sections for tables they are responsible for. We keep trying to stick it out because the food is good but the service is really starting to take it down hill. Really need to have a better serving system in place.

If it’s your first time you can’t go wrong with the pork buns, Asian Tacos (a little spicy , the duck dumplings, the pink lady, the happy happy joy joy or the Korean BBQ Bowl with meat. I didn’t get to snap a pic of everything bc everyone couldn’t wait to dive in. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? Get you some ASAP! (you can thank me later

We both tried one piece from the roll and it was not good at all. No fault of cool fish though, everything else is amazing just not the fake meat

The “Tuna Stack” literally had no tuna in it (see the pics). A dollop of wasabi was not enough for 5 bites of a roll. The rolls were tiny.Mostly rice or vegetable. Where’s the fish? $18 for what? Lots of good reviews but our takeout order was terrible. Tinyrolls, no fish, average taste, and really overpriced relative to much better places locally.

My husband had salmon roll, shrimp roll, miso, fries and shrimp tacos, everything lacked seasoning. My vegetable bowl was lame.I felt like they didn 't put any effort on making something good, different, not even adding some type of seasoning to therecipes. Everything was flat and dull. $69 for two dinners in a teens place like this, is overpriced and overated. As otherpeople said, this is a teenagers bar trying to be cool, with loud music, mediocre food, kids with no knowledge of the menuserving tables and overpriced items. Cool to hang out and have drinks? Maybe. I don 't know, I went there for the food. Cool totalk, NO. It 's super loud. A foodies option? Definitely no. There 's easily 5 better options to eat sushi around Huntersville.I 'll not be back.
