| - My husband and I visited this place because of Yelp, and because this is one of the closest sushi places to our house. I wasn't completely displeased, but it's not in the slightest my favourite sushi restaurant, nor do I think I will ever be back.
This place is very obviously owned by Koreans. They gave us the stereotypical Korean appetizers before our meal. They tasted great.
We went for an early dinner, and ended up getting one bento box and one small sushi/sashimi platter. One thing that did impress me was the fact that the california rolls are surprisingly good in comparison to other places I've been to. So if you stop by, don't be afraid to get a meal that comes with these: they're really not as boring as you might think (they come with fish eggs on top).
Our bento box came with traditional Korean-style beef, which is fine if you're okay with mixing fish and meat. I'd rather not, so it was a bit of a turn off, but it was a cheaper alternative to the all-sushi meals.
The maki rolls aren't the biggest. They're regular- to small-sized, so they're not altogether the most filling. The meat was good, although I didn't like that I had it with the sushi (as mentioned earlier). The tempura and tofu were also pretty good. The sushi and the sashimi were really thickly cut, however. I didn't notice this at first, because I'm usually okay with my sushi cut a little thicker. My husband pointed it out at the start of the meal and I thought nothing of it. But by the end of the meal, even I started feeling a little sick at how thick the sashimi cuts were.
All in all, decent portions at reasonable prices for a sushi place, but there's nothing spectacular at all about it. It's just your average run of the mill sushi restaurant with pretty good sushi. So I probably won't ever come back here.
Also, as an end note, the place was pretty much empty when we went. The service was good and pretty quick due to this, but the restaurant owner kept staring at us, which I found quite a bit unsettling. So as I said before, probably not coming back to this place. I'd rather drive a bit out of my way to go to a better sushi restaurant than stick to this one.
