Calm ambiance, dishes came out in a timely fashion. Sushi, rolls, and tempura were prepared with care and precision! High quality fish! Recommend the vegetable tempura, rainbow roll, and assorted sushi. No imitation crab here! They use REAL crab.

Get up get in get out get it get get get it. The secretary of the interior sat in the booth behind us and would not stop talking about how water is the new black. Meaning I presume that water has become a commodity worth hyping beyond its weight. And at 7lbs. per gallon perhaps we should refer to water like we refer to gasoline. What super power has the most water? How much like by volume of raw tuna is water? And how does that water taste so good.

Excellent service and almost everything is really delicious. Our favorites were the Green Mussels w/dynamite sauce and the Chilean Sea Bass Miso Yaki. The only disappointing dish is the chicken breast (Taking) in the Bento Box (it's dry), but other than that this is a really yummy experience :)

Excellent food and great attentive service! They follow all safety protocols here so you can be sure to have a good experience! I loved the Spicy Tuna Roll and the King Salmon Roll. The Ootoro was delicious and melted in my mouth. I love how peaceful the setting and music are. Very soothing colors and atmosphere! Thanks for the enjoyable experience!
