The Scene – Rare is the time when all 13 seats aren't taken in the blink-and-you'll-miss-it dining room. Odds are once you're seated, you'll find yourself face-to-fish at the sushi bar, where expert hands slice and roll fresh, top-quality seafood. – – The Food – While the sushi is superb, don't neglect the rest of the extensive menu, as the hot dishes are exceptional as well. For starters, the miso soup is light and flavorful, and the shrimp and vegetable tempura isn't greasy. The beef yaki ishi, a heaping portion of vegetables, rice, and steak on a sizzling stone…

Cheap and tasty

by HYPe at Citysearch

Really cheap ($27 for sushi for two? I think) and pretty good sushi this side of town. Not spectacular, but the chefs have good skill. ( I think the skill of the chefs are comparable to that of high class sushi places like Nobu in NYC, but the ingreidients are not as high class.) Almost no space to sit in.... impossible for parties larger than 4 (There's like 10 seats) but takeout was pretty fast. All in all, pretty tasty sushi for a great price ! And it's by a real Japanese person... so it gets 5 stars lol

  • Pros: cheap price
  • Cons: small space/ no parking/ long wait
