First I'd like to recognize truly caring staff member. I arrived after a LONG week to take my mom, aunt and GF out to a decent sushi dinner. It was a Friday night and I didn't have reservations so of course there was a wait. At first I said, no we'll move. I walked out and one of the guys ran out to ask if I wanted to take a table outside. I mean who does that? Guy cared enough to run out and offer another option? Pretty spectacular service and gesture there.
We ended putting our name on the list and came back. Place is nice inside, server was very attentive and friendly.
The food was really nothing to write home about although the fried calamari came on a bed of salad that had a sauce that was to die for. The Tonkotsu Ramen was one step above cup-a-noodle ramen. I prefer in house made noodles, but maybe I've been spoiled by NYC ramen places and Tampopo in Tempe. The Monster Roll was decent, but again nothing special. The Shiro Maki roll had this very off tasting lime sauce over it that no one at the table liked. Had the Little Lilly Sake which is a great sweet cloudy chilled Sake to take the edge off the salt of soy sauce.
Overall not terrible, not great. Probably wouldn't return. I'd recommend Sumo Maya as a fantastic albeit slightly more expensive alternative.
