| - I've eaten here several times now because it's close to my house and the sushi is delicious. The service is hit or miss, I would not go expecting great service.
Ok, so the food ... their miso soup is the best I've had, better than Ra, Stingray or Sushi Brokers (which is where I eat most often because they are close to work for lunch). I really like the fried tofu and green bean tempura appetizers. I can drag my husband and daughter (not sushi fans) there because they also have teriyaki bowls and a pb&j roll for kids. For lunch, I usually get the sushi special, which is a spicy tuna roll and a few pieces of nigiri. I like the spicy crab roll and shrimp tempura roll on the happy hour menu. I did not like the Philly roll, it was weird and chewy. I still need to try the spicy salmon roll and California roll.
Prices ... about the same as in Scottsdale ... sushi is expensive, which is why I try to eat it for lunch or happy hour. The happy hour is ok, but a little disappointing. There are limited rolls available for the 1/2 off special, and you basically have to drink beer if you want to get a good HH deal. The wine is only $2 off and most of the wines are $8 a glass, so I don't think $6 is a good HH deal. Also, I ordered a Hana Awaka Sake and I don't think it was included in the HH, which was a little confusing because it was listed right under the wine.
Ambiance ... I don't care for the interior it's kind of cheap Ikea looking. The bar area and outside patio are pretty cool. I would say more trendy than upscale.
