They led us what we like and helped us to order the right items on the menu. My daughter got Hosomaki with some additional articles like Spinat and Aal. Hosomaki was the best we have achieved so far. They looked at our table. Well served. Especially thanks to Koch Nedim and all employees for the amazing experience.

We went there on a Thursday evening, they were really busy so it took quite a while for us to get seated, around 50 minutes, but it is understandable. The food was absolutely worth the wait, fantastic sushi rolls, very flavorful and balanced. The soup base for the udon is quite good too. But after we finish eating, we waited for almost 30 minutes just to get the check, we had to wave down multiple waitresses and then they just seem to disappear somewhere and never came back. They didn't seem shorthanded, we saw quite a few waitresses during our dinner, they were just all moving at a very slow speed.

I don't usually like sushi that much, but this place definitely had a superb menu for anyone who doesn't like sushi much or REALLY loves sushi. Highly recommend. There's also a very interesting drink menu with a tasty selection.

We ordered edamame, chicken appetizer, a sushi roll, salmon nigiri, and two bowls of ramen. The ramen was borderline too salty,barely edible. The chicken appetizer was tasty but probably more of a fusion style dish, not authentic. The nigiri was abysmal.I’ve purchased salmon before and made my own sushi, even as an untrained chef I was able to choose better cuts of salmon thanthis so called sushi restaurant. Hands down the worst salmon nigiri I’ve ever had. Inedible. The roll was passable but not upto par with the price and quality of sushi places we’ve ever eaten at. In short- we were expecting better quality food butcame away sorely disappointed.

Plates are a bit too salty. The service is nice the place overall has a good ambiance. The calamari plate was reallygood and filling. Pricey but expected.
