This is the best Sushi restaurant in the Boston area, by far! The waitresses are polite, friendly (if not always efficient). If you go, block off some time, bring friends, and commit to enjoying the experience (which starts off, I might add, like an evening at a spa -- with each diner receiving a steaming hot towel - or oshibori - I don't recall their ever being cool in the summer...as is the custom). If you're in a hurry, you're going to be both disappointed and frustrated. The food is great and their menu is varied. I have to disagree with the vegetarian who commented earlier; I'm vegan, go almost weekly, and still haven't had everything they have available that meets my dietary restrictions. They even have Shabu-Shabu available if you're bored with sushi (which I can't imagine). They have the freshest sushi...avacado roll, Idaho roll, cucumber roll, tempura, ginger salad, seaweed salad, miso soup...the list goes on, but these are just a few of my favorites. Their drinks are reasonably priced and are well-made, but you'll never be given a hard-sell; this place is about the food and the ambience. Give it a try and you won't be disappointed. Maybe you'll see me and my crew on Sushi Thursdays (7:30 pm - whenever)!
Pros: Great Food, Comfortable Atmosphere, Welcome and Friendly Staff, Great Drinks and Food...
Cons: Service May Seem Slow...Dishes/Courses Might Be Delivered Erratically - Worth the Wait and the Interesting Arrival Sequence, imho

I've been here twice now, and had good experiences both times. I always get sushi, which is really good here. Very fresh. My husband doesn't eat sushi, so he has gotten other dishes and always been pleased as well. It does look a little seedy from the outside, but if you can get over its location (settled right in between some route 1 trailer parks) you shoud go. It can get a little pricey, it was $142 for four of us, and only two of us ate sushi. They charged us $12.95 for a side of vegetable fried rice. Other than that, I would recommend it.
Pros: fresh sushi, traditional japanese seating is available
Cons: location
