I will start out by saying that I haven't yet had an opportunity to sit at the bar or had drinks mixed for me. I have always had a booth close to the door. I only mention this because I have never had bad service, but I usually go in the middle of the day and there seems to be less of a crowd around these times.
There is a patio to eat outside if you want to enjoy the weather, and it is actually pretty good looking. Inside the atmosphere is good as well. Half the restaurant is similar to a sports bar feel, while the other half is a more common setup for a sushi restaurant. Also, the outside of the building is inviting and is in a clean area with a lot of nicely groomed properties surrounding it.
The food itself is not honestly the best. I also have only had the sushi, but I found it to be similar to one of those restaurants that just "kind-of" serves it on the menu. The seaweed was chewy and the rice wasn't quite right. The fish was ok and I didn't find it to be out of the ordinary.
This is a great place for groups, especially outside or in the bar area. However I would highly recommend this place for a "FIRST" date. The setting is great and the food is good enough with a good bit of options besides sushi. Along those lines it's a little expensive (illusion of high quality), but won't empty your wallet. Your date will think you took her to one of the better sushi places in town.
