I might be jumping the gun here since it was my first time but there are a couple of reasons. First I ordered take out so the fact I ate it all and it was all delicious is impressive. Secondly don't judge this book by its cover because at first I almost didn't go, it's so small I think they might only be able to fit 20 people. Thirdly everyone is authentically Japanese and I am from Tokyo so I appreciate the portions, quality and touch. All and I mean each such I roll was fresh and wasn't questionable. California rolls are usually blah to me but these were interestingly delicious and I want to go back to get a full roll LOL. The only thing is maybe they forgot to give me a side of rice with my chicken teriyaki or maybe it doesn't come with it not sure. But I didn't really miss it because it was all yummy! Definitely going back
