| - Stumbled across this on yelp and decided to give it a shot. I'm a very big fan of sushi and sometimes I get bored of my same haunts. I was surprised I had never heard of this location, even though I literally lived a mile down the road for 2 years. The good thing is that the place has an amazing ambiance. Slightly dimmed lights gave it that quiet hangout feel which is awesome. I loved the multiple tv's tuned to different stations. 1 was the knight's playoff game, 1 was an E-league match, 1 was baseball, and 1 was a youtube playlist which coincidentally was their source of overhead music. The exact same 4 screens(in backwards order haha) on the opposite wall so everyone can catch whatever no matter where they sit. I love that. The table was clean, and food was tasty. If it had ended there, this place would have been perfect. The 1 fault I had was that there were 5, yes 5 wait staff who work the entire floor. Meaning every. single. 15. seconds. we were hit up with the regular, everything ok? doing alright? everything good? anything else? more drink? Anywhere else with less intensity it would have been a really great thing, but it actually ruined the meal. Pretty much every single bite or sip someone popped up to interrupt us. Dinner conversation? Not likely..... I really REALLY wanna give them the benefit of the doubt and just say ok, the place was mostly empty, which it was, they were a tad over staffed for the hour we were there, everyone was bored and trying to make themselves useful. I really want that to be the case, because they were all super polite and helpful with any questions we had, seriously much love to JD and the rest of them, but my mother was seriously annoyed and I can never bring her back here. I would definitely recommend this place, as I know for a fact it's the best sushi place in it's zip code. Nowhere within 4-5 miles that's as good quality and as comfortable as this place. But for family sushi night? I must resign myself elsewhere.
