| - After reading the bad reviews and checking out the menu, I was pretty sure before I walked in that it was Korean not Japanese. So after sitting at the sushi bar and listening to the chefs and waitresses converse in Korean, I was ready for some less than good sushi and Japanese food. I was disappointed :) It was actually quite good. And the service was excellent, friendly and attentive, everyone there is obviously happy to work there.
I don't order 'rolls' as that is where many Korean sushi places slather on the spicy mayonnaise, and who orders rolls when ordering sushi in Japan? No one. I ordered a plate of sashimi which included tuna, salmon and yellow tail all of which were very good. The 'white tuna' tasted of very recently frozen and was meh. the red snapper had some small tough parts which can happen with red snapper, so why include it in your sashimi plate? I also ordered nigiri sushi of salmon, tuna, sea urchin and salmon roe all of which were very generous and absolutely delicious.
I also had some spicy seafood soup which was good, a couple sapporo beers and some not so great hot sake (not bad just a cheaper variety)
I have no idea what the Korean food is like here (Galbi, Bugolgi, etc.) nor the other Japanese dishes, but the sushi (no rolls) in terms of fish are good if you stick with the nigiri sushi which is less expensive than other sushi places in town and more generous.
Was very lucky to get a spot in the very small parking lot.
