I'm new to Pittsburgh and recently my girlfriend came into town to visit. We decided we had a taste for sushi and looked up a few places. On a Saturday night, it was tough to find a nice sushi place that wasn't booked for the rest of the night or very busy. We finally decided on this one after calling many others that were too busy...I'm so glad we went here. The sushi was very good (it wasn't swimming 10 minutes ago, but for a land-locked city it was damn good), the ambiance was nice (decorations weren't tacky, music wasn't blaring, TV wasn't enormous), and the service was -- in a word -- awesome. I've had my fair share of fine dining and five star service but our waitress here was better (in kind, not degree). We were all laughing and talking, she taught us a few things about Japanese culture, and still seamlessly waited on our table; she was just so personable. She got the largest (percentage) tip I've ever left and she deserved every cent. She really made the experience special for us. I would not give a second's hesitation to going back to Little Tokyo.
