I read one of the reviews on here from someone saying this is the best maki sushi they have had in the valley and they have lived in Japan for 2 years. That's bull. I lived in japan for two years and this is nothing like traditional sushi. 1st. Sushi with rice on the outside is an American thing adopted by the Japanese for cheap revolving sushi bars in Japan. Secondly, the maki here is pressed way too hard especially the way nigiri is made here. Overcooked rice and no sushi making technique. Obviously just another hit and run spot if you're hungry. The guy behind the cutting board whom I will refuse to call a sushi chef was very unenthusiastic and constantly asked what we wanted with shit attitude like he didn't want to be at work. The ingredients are sweet in taste and I won't argue but it really isn't anything special.
Plus I knew it was going to be shit when i saw the man take a honing steel to his yanagi which is ok i guess considering that it looked like a 10 dollar knife anyways. But what got me was the staff just sitting around even if it was slow. If you got time to lean you got time to clean, especially with a dirty sushi bar.
