I live 2 minutes away from Taiyo so I gave it a shot. I was skeptical at first because I didn't think this place will be any good especially when it's in the boonies but I was pleasantly surprised. The sashimi was fresh which was extremely important and their rolls were tasty. The decor is still quite new. It's clean and modern looking with booths and such. I would recommend this place if you're in the NW and do not wanting to drive far for decent sushi. The pricing is a bit steep but it's sushi so expect to pay a bit more.
