This place is ok for a cheep and cheerful local Japanese, but I think there are better options - better value for money as well as a better/bigger menu - within walking distance. It's OK, but I would opt for a few others before considering this place again.

Waited 25 min for two sushi rolls as take away. Over $18 for two miserable rolls, absolutely nothing special about them. The chef rushed to make them after me asking twice how long it was going to be. Overall the food is overpriced and of average quality.

New management from July.  This place is the best Japanese restaurant in the Inner West.  Super friendly,  interesting menu, great food and service and Clark is the most friendly host you will meet.  Been here twice in 2 weeks and looking forward to my next visit.
