Really sad to see how much this place is declining. It's been a measurably worse experience every time we come in (about once or twice a month). What started as the sushi joint this town needed, with possibly the best front-of-house manager we've ever seen, who literally held the place together at the time, has become a place where we're greeted at the door with nothing more than a gesture toward the dining room to find our own seats. Then we're handed a disgustingly dirty stack of stapled papers that now serves as the menu. Just a couple of months ago they had nice laminated menu folders. Staring at a brown-stained, low-ink printed sheet of paper does not make you crave raw fish... or anything else for that matter. Why on earth would they think this is a good idea? We never really know who our server is anymore, and when one finally came over, he had clearly just come back from smoking outside and absolutely reeked of cigarettes. Again, not exactly an appetizing way to start a sushi date. A quick note: we showed up about 30 minutes after opening, so the staff needing a cigarette break that soon after opening for lunch seemed a little questionable. We ordered, and thankfully the quality of the fish is still top notch, as it has always been. The only change there is that the portions of sashimi and nigiri have shrunk by about 30%. While waiting for our food, the same server took another table's order while half-sitting on the empty table behind him. I doubt the people who eventually sat there would have appreciated knowing that someone's backside had been resting where their food would soon be served. With the new AUCE restaurant in town showing a lot of promise and serving good-quality food (maybe not quite the same selection or quality, but good nonetheless), I would expect a restaurant trying to position itself above that level to offer better service and menus that don't look like they were left next to a urinal before being brought back into the dining room. Seriously disappointing. What a quick fall. We'll probably give it one or two more chances, especially since I'm seeing similar comments here on Yelp, but after that we may have to start looking elsewhere again. To think we have recommended this place to a lot of people who might now question our taste in restaurants is not great... I genuinely hope management sees reviews like this and makes some changes, because they're heading in the wrong direction very quickly.

Dropped in for what was supposed to be a drink and a couple of apps, but we kept ordering more food because everything was good--we had a full dinner before we knew it. The standouts were the hamachi crudo and the oyster shooters. I wanted to go back the next day just for these shooters, but alas we didn't have time. The grilled eggplant skewer was also yummy and a good deal at $3. The prices are very reasonable, especially considering it's Napa. Sapporos were buy one get one free, which was an unexpected bonus.

Came here on a busy Saturday night and ended up scoring the last table. Our server was very knowledgeable and attentive even though the restaurant was swamped. The food was amazing, our favorite was the yellowtail and amaebi. Cute little restaurant, we will be back when we're in the area.

Kris M.

We thoroughly enjoyed the food here. The takoyaki is legit and with a good heaping of nori! The nigiris were delicious with flavors that matched the fish really well. We enjoyed the crab coast roll as well. We also got a mango roll but you couldn't really taste the mango and also the sashimi salad but it was drowned by the vinaigrette. We suggest cutting the dressing by a bit. We would love to come back if we are in the area again!

Came by without a reservation for dinner on a Saturday and were lucky to be seated immediately despite it being quite busy. Despite the number of customers, it's quite spacious and upscale inside, with dim mood lighting. We ordered a hamachi collar and 4 rolls to share, which was just enough for us to be full. The fish was fresh, but some of the sauces and flavors didn't really seem to match the fish. The hamachi collar was excellent, and I would definitely get that again. For the price, it's not the best sushi you can get, but definitely a solid spot for the area with some good quality rolls that would be nice for a special treat or night out. I don't imagine coming here often but would definitely consider visiting every once in a while when I'm craving sushi and in the area!

Went to amami with a friend after several recommendations and it totally delivered! Was told the prices were better the Eikos so wanted to give it a shot. Paid $100 for 4 rolls, miso, gyoza, and yakatori, which was totally reasonable. The veggie tempura and mango crunch roll were a little sweet, but still good (would likely skip mango next time). The waygu yakatori was 11/10- definitely recommend!

While scrolling through Yelp where to have dinner in Napa, after learning that one of my favorite restaurants that I had chosen was closed that evening for a private party, I saw Amami Sushi and remembered that Chef Alan had opened a forth location here after his others located in San Bruno and South San Francisco. Only a short drive from where we were staying, we arrived at 6:30 pm on a Thursday evening where we were seated at a four top table adjacent to the sushi bar. Unlike his other 3 locations which are in older buildings where the interior dining area is not as modern, the Napa location is different. A clean, sleek and modern interior greets one who enters located on the corner lot shared by another business. Looking at the menu, we ended up ordering Karage and a Dynamite roll followed by a teriyaki salmon dinner and Hokkaido Don. Karage was fully cooked and very good however wish the outer skin would have been slightly kore brown. A slight hiccup occurred when I had requested my salmon be cooked rare and it came out Medium in which I politely returned it only to learn from the server that the kitchen had again cooked it again as Medium. At this point, my wife had already finished her entree as considerable time had passed before learning of the 2nd miscue. No worries as I decided to order the same entree as my wife and like hers the selected cuts of fish over the rice were very fresh and I especially like the dab of Uni over the fish. Ended up receiving a complimentary glass of wine afterwards and would still return here for my next visit. Just like his other locations they are only open for lunch and close for several hours before serving dinner starting at 5 pm. Restrooms are modern and clean during my visit and are shared with the other business located in the same building.

Amami was a great experience! We dropped in on a Saturday evening for dinner. We were greeted and seated right away. The atmosphere was lively and friendly. The waitress was very helpful with answering questions about the menu. We loved the sushi rolls and grilled seafood delicacies.

A nice, little trendy spot in beautiful downtown Napa. We were the first to arrive shortly after they opened. Good thing, too, because this place filled up fast! Our drinks paired very well with the 15pc Omakase we ordered. This dish is either an all nigiri or all sashimi dish. However, the chef was kind enough to do a 50/50 split. As far as I'm concerned, it was a chance for their chef to show off his skills. He did not disappoint! We also tried the Ankimo aka Monkfish Liver. For the most part, I hate any kind of liver... until now! I was a little leary about trying it. But when i did, NO REGRETS!!! I was expecting the irony, gritty flavor usually associated with liver. Not this one. This had a very fresh & creamy smooth taste & texture, similar to uni, served in a little splash of ponzu with a few jalapeno slices. Absolutely delicious! The other dishes worth mentioning, but missed their photo ops, were the Philadelphia Roll, Tekka Maki, Takoyaki, and last, but surely not least, the soft shell crab. Looking forward to going back to explore the rest of their menu.

The food looked fresh but tasted a bit fishy, I'm not sure what was happening here. A scallop hand roll for $22...$14 for 2 pieces of sashimi...not so sure about the prices...but my friend said, ' That's Napa for you...lol!' Great ambience, but look around for other options. Then again, it's Napa!

I was so pleasantly surprised by our new Sushi Restaurant in town! We were greeted right away by the friendly hostess and sat at the wrap around bar and took a look at their menu while simultaneously watching the chefs expertly prep and slice away to make the rolls. I'm always a little off put when the majority of a sushi menu is tempura options, (we want the fresh rolls!) Not to worry, they had a good variety and plenty of baked, raw, spicy and veggie options! My partner doesn't eat seafood so he had the veggie sushi and was so happy with how they really cared to make it delicious. ( I'll be taking my vegetarian sister here now!) The chefs and rest of staff look over even in the busy atmosphere to make sure you love your roll, which was so cool to me. One thing to note is they do not have a liquor license so bring a bottle or buy one before. The corkage fee is.... Wait for it.... FREE! So cool. And I can't believe I made it this far without mentioning the prices. The rolls range from $8-$15. For being in downtown Napa, it is so so nice to have an affordable, casual, good quality Sushi Restaurant. read more

The best sushi place in Napa. I feel like it's not too too overpriced compared to other places and you get quality for what you're paying for. Their lion king roll and mango crunch roll are my favorites of all time. It's the type of place where you could get anything on the menu and it's delicious. The servers are really attentive and it's overall a nice enough place where you can go for a nice date or a casual catch up with friends. I love this place. read more

My partner and I were looking for a place to have dinner in Napa and came across Amami Sushi. There's plenty of parking around the area, so it wasn't too hard to park. We got seated upon entering and ordered the following: - Miso Soup: Delicious and warm, loved the green onions for additional flavor - Snow White Roll: Fresh and tasty, enjoyed the escolar and fatty tuna combination. The spicy sauce was a little too spicy - Sake, Toro, Hamachi Nigiris: Ended the dinner with these wonderful and delicious nigiris, all of them were so fresh and had great textures The service was great despite how busy it was on a Sunday night. Lots of families were also eating dinner, which made the place very lively. All the servers were very attentive and friendly! Will definitely come back if we're in the area again read more

YAY!!! Finally a good sushi restaurant in town! This restaurant took over the Hal Yamashita space - nearby parking lots, shops and salons. It has a gorgeous bar where you can watch the sushi chefs do their thing. This would be a decent place for a date night or with the family. We came for dinner during the first 3 days of their opening & several families were also there. They don't have a ton of large tables so be prepared to wait if you are a party over 4 & come during peak hours. We had several rolls and the hamachi w/ponzu & jalapeño appetizer. Everything was freshly prepared and very good! They hadn't received their liquor license yet when we visited, but that was in progress so sake & beer should be available soon. I'd be happy to return to Amami Sushi & welcome them to Napa! read more

Came in with a party of 5 and got a ton of different apps and rolls to share, forgot to take a photo before we dug in but the food was amazing. Every dish was phenomenal! The only thing that was disappointing was that we ordered all of our apps and I let the server know we wanted our mains after and proceeded to order the mains together and everything ended up coming out one by one- apps and mains at the same time. This made the dinner feel very rushed. I totally understand if this is standard for them but I did specify how I wanted the meal delivered and that didn't happen. The service was friendly overall but, next time I will order items one by one. read more

Each roll is so unique. Bold fresh flavor, with each bite making you crave the next. Price point is amazing..... have never found the sushi this good and this fresh without even coming close to breaking the bank. If you're in Napa and you like sushi, coming here is a have too. Chef Eric knows what he's doing. Some rolls definitely worth trying are The bomb Ring of fire Golden valley And absolutely the dynamite roll. None of the food here needs soy sauce. Roll comes perfect straight from the chef. read more

We had an excellent meal (lunch) at Amami Sushi this past weekend. It was quiet when we arrived-- likely due to the fact that Bottlerock was in full swing. I have been eating sushi for 59 years, so I am a fan of the traditional Tekka Maki roll, which they do really well. We also had the Rock and Roll which was also good. The Chicken Karaage was a little overcooked and tough. Another favorite of mine is Miso Soup, which again, they do very well with green onions. My favorite. We will be back soon read more

It's been intriguing and a delight to watch the progression of Amami from when they first opened their doors in early 2024 to their menu revamp and dining room renovation that kicked off 2025. While I've had the pleasure of dining here multiple times since their arrival in Napa, I was inspired to write this review after my last 2-3 experiences. After all, it takes time for a new restaurant to really find their footing and balance. The staff is friendly and accommodating, but not overbearing, which can sometimes be an issue at other places. They're attentive, know just when to check in, and are friendly enough to strike up a conversation with you--without being too much. The update to their menu is what truly sets them apart from other Japanese restaurants in Napa. The rolls are great, the kushiyaki is a perfect quick snack for lunch if you're in a rush, but the nigiri is the star of the show. The variety of fish options, which I believe are from purveyor Sakasyu (correct me if I'm wrong, Chef), is a breath of fresh air. The quality is top-notch, and the presentation of the thoughtfully prepared nigiri shows a true passion for the craft. I very forgetfully dropped the ball on taking photos of my wonderful dishes during this calm, rainy, late-afternoon visit, but I'll be sure to capture everything next time. Highly recommend giving this place a try! read more

I was in Napa for a conference and was pleasantly surprised to see a familiar restaurant name pop up. We decided to pop in early and was able to get seated at the sushi bar. The place was loud and busy, reminding me of the other Amami restaurants I visited. It was nice to see Alan behind the counter and he even asked how my family was doing. We placed our order and even though we didn't seem to wait too long, Alan thanked us for our patience. I always enjoy the fresh sushi at Amami. They are always so big that I get full pretty quickly now lol. I recommend getting the omakase plate if you have a good appetite because that never lets me down and gives the best variety. Congratulations to Alan and his team for another great sushi restaurant! read more

I normally don't do this, matter of fact I never have. However, my wife and I felt like we needed to. We had been looking forward to coming here and were excited to try several items on the menu. I first and foremost want to acknowledge how amazing the food was. The only reason I gave 4 stars. Everything from the taste to the presentation was amazing. It was cut short however due to lack of service. The host and the runners weren't the problem at all, it was our server. He was quick to take our order and that's when it went downhill. We got our appetizers but no drinks. We had to ask for our drinks 10-15 mins after we gots our apps. We ordered 3 rolls and only got 2 of them. Had to ask him about our 3rd one and he blamed the kitchen. I had to waive him down on 3 different occasions because not once did he check on us. Had to ask for another drink had to ask for napkins etc...there was no upselling on his part whatsoever and I mention that because I asked to keep a menu to order more once we finished with the food we already had however due to poor service we just asked for our check. My wife and I are both in the hospitality business and being in Napa you expect a level of service that didn't even meet the bare minimum. read more

My new affordable sushi spot in Napa! I am a HUGE sushi fan so anytime a new sushi spot comes into town, we have to go! Amami did not disappoint, in fact, we've already gone twice and I crave it regularly! Aesthetic - 7/10 Very simplistic, minimalistic, modern, with two televisions, one likely playing Anime and the other has sushi/seafood making television. TBH, they could use some panels to absorb some of the noise in there when it gets loud because I've found myself yelling a few times but that's not why we go! Staff - 10/10 We love all of the staff there so far! From the host, to the servers, to the sushi chefs, everyone is so friendly and ready to recommend new things to try. My fiancé is getting more into sushi so it's important for him to get a little extra guidance and they are happy to provide recs! Our order: - Edamame - Admittedly, it's a little overcooked. The outer shell is soft and mushy sometimes and they could definitely benefit from some salt flakes on top! The price is great and the beans themselves are still delicious! - Miso soup - I am THRILLED to have a spot with cheap, delicious miso! I always crave miso before sushi and theirs does not disappoint. - Chicken Kara-age - YUM and also such a healthy serving! Definitely will be ordering again! - Vegetable tempura - So so good and such a healthy portion! Just wish it came with more sauce. - Supa Spicy Roll - Decently hot as the name implies but seriously delicious and creative! - Polar Bear Roll - Fresh, delicious, and a spicy kick to boot! - Spicy Tuna Roll - Such a classic, beautifully done! Let's be real, we will likely be hitting up this new sushi spot 2-3 times per month! Highly recommend! read more

We came here right when it open around 11:30, therefore, service was fast and attentive as it was less busy! Parking around this area is quite easy, there are a lot of street parking and a small lot right across the street! The restaurant was nice and clean. It had a lot of the furnitures that the old restaurant that used to be here had. For food we ordered a takoyaki and hamachi jalapeño as appetizers, a few notifies and a black dragon roll for our entrees. Hamachi jalapeño was the best dish we had. It was a perfect blend of spicy, sour, and sweet. The nigiris were super big and thick. They were really good in terms of how much you can get for the price. We weren't the biggest fan of the black dragon roll, it was a twist to the dragon roll with sriracha and yellow tail. Food was great, would come again! read more

It was pretty busy but we got seated pretty much right away. We ordered a miso soup and the hamachi appetizer to start. I ordered simple but classic spicy tuna, salmon, negi toro, and spicy yellowtail rolls (6 pcs). Omg. The fish is soooo fresh. The flavors are beyond words. I was stuffed by the end but was not overwhelmingly full - thanks to the quality of the food. It did take a bit for our food to arrive due to it being busy, but not super long.

New restaurant met its expectations! It Was a busy evening but service was satisfactory given its still new and lots excited eaters. May need to more staff for busier days and more tables for the larger groups. Ordered nigiris & rolls and it was fresh! Really enjoyed Ami Ebi and Unagi. Dinner selection beef teriyaki, portion was good and sauce was flavorful. The restaurant is roomy but it was packed. There was a line as we exited. Get there at opening or prepare to wait. It's worth the wait. Best of luck! read more

Food was good. Price is decent. No liquor license yet but they said they could order beer for us from next door. Still training new people. We accidentally got someone else's order. They only take reservations for party 5 or larger. When we sat down, we were offered water and hot tea. For appetizer, I wanted to try takoyaki which was filling. Not sure what was inside it besides octopus. We ordered miso soup as well. I liked the baked scallop roll. Spider roll was good as well. Can't wait to try other rolls. Wondering if at some point there will be ramen and udon. Heard another patron ask the waitress when they were going bring down the ramen dishes from their other restaurant. read more

Great new affordable Japanese restaurant in downtown Napa! We were so impressed... From the comfortable chairs and the whole vibe inside the restaurant! Molly was an absolute doll... Oh, my word! She said her brother is one of the chefs so it's a family restaurant! Who doesn't love to support that?? We were just blown away by the prices, though...We ordered the tempura mix for $10! And we couldn't even finish it. Three large shrimp, onions, zucchini, sweet potato, regular potato, carrot and broccoli! For $10! My husband got the pokey salad and he loved it and it was only $12 but he prefers when there is rice with it and it was mostly lettuce... well, a salad! Then he ordered one of the sushi rolls and it was also $12 and huge. I ordered the teriyaki steak since I don't like sushi. Wasn't a real fan but the rice was excellent and it also came with a salad for $19! Next time I will get the chicken. I also had a glass of sparkling sake... Boy was that fun! They serve it in a cute little carafe with a tiny little glass. Our favorite thing, though, was Molly... If anything, just go there to meet her! read more

Came here to check out the sashimi that everyone's been raving about and it did NOT disappoint! We ordered the 12 piece that was clearly not just 12 pieces. The quality was so super fresh and the chef was so thoughtful in informing us of each piece and how he recommended to enjoy it. Will definitely be coming back!

All was delicious. Something I noticed dining here was that they're super on top of refilling your waters. The service was good, but food did take quite awhile coming out. They sent out one dish at a time so it felt like we were waiting quite awhile in between each dish. Not a huge deal. We sat outside which was nice and right by the water.

Kenzo Napa

Date of Visit: 12/20/2025…read more This was our second visit to Kenzo Napa to celebrate our 4th Anniversary. Last time when we visited was the next day when we got married in Las Vegas! We stayed at Andaz Napa for one night before Christmas to celebrate our Anniversary, and we booked Kenzo Napa for the dinner and it was walkable distance from the hotel. Kenzo Napa was established by Kenzo Tsujimoto in 2016, and received Michelin 1 star in 2018, and every year ever since. The price for Kaiseki is $295 per person, and my husband ordered the Omakase Pairing $197 and I got a bottle of Aoki Shuzo, "Yuki Otoko" Junmai, Niigata $40 to pair with the set. 2021 Suzu First glass of the omakase pairing is the sparking rose. This is made with 54% Malbec, 37% Merlot, and 9% Cabernet Franc, with the smell of strawberry and blood orange. Cauliflower Chawanmushi The first dish is chawanmushi, with ginger, snow crab, etc. 2024 asatsuyu The second glass of the omakase pairing was the Sauvignon Blanc. The name is from Japanese meaning morning dew. Seasonal Hassun The second dish is the seasonal hassun, which is the traditional Japanese appetizer. Five different small dishes including the lotus root dumpling with bottarga, ehime bluefin tuna, shiso leaves rolled angel shrimp, Japanese yam with Italian caviar, and Hokkaido scallop with persimmon with peanuts. Sawahime Yamahai Junmai Third glass of the omakase pairing is the Junmai with the aromas of gardenia, ripe kiwi, papaya, green peppercorn, aged comte cheese. Yamaguchi Tilefish Owan This one is our favorite dish of the day! Very fresh and refreshing, with fish and vegetable and mushroom. Midorikawa Daiginjo The fourth glass of the pairing has a great hint of spice but elegant at the same time. Oita Sea Bream Sashimi The fourth dishes is the sashimi, paired with ponzu sesame shoyu. 2023 yui Rosé This Rosé was made with 65% Malbec, 26% Merlot, and 9% Cabernet Franc. Paired greatly with the next course. Simmered Mie Toro Sawara Mackerel Love the texture of the mackerel. 2021 Asuka Asuka was made with 83% Cabernet Franc, 11.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot, 1.5% Petit Verdot. Got 93 points on Wine Enthusiast. Wagyu Tendon and Japanese Taro Croquette This Croquette was made with Japanese taro and wagyu beef. 2020 Rindo And with the next course is the red blend made with 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 23% Petit Verdot, 7% Malbec, 6% Cabernet Franc. The wine has great berry aroma and spices. A5 Wagyu Tenderloin Jibuni The seventh course is the A5 wagyu beef steak. Cut into bite sizes, with mushrooms and veggies. Daishichi Minowamon This sake has a strong smell of berry, banana, and pear. Velvety and buttery. Hokkaido Sea Urchin, Ikura and Mediterranean Bluefin Tuna Sushi Bowl served with red miso soup One of my favorite Japanese seafood bowl! Chef's Featured Desserts Three different desserts was great too. It has a goji berry panna cotta and fried spring roll with vanilla ice cream, and also a berry ice cream with caramelized walnut. And on the side there was a warm green tea, making a sweet and perfect ending.

The anticipation was high as we settled into our seats at Amami Sushi, a place renowned for its delectable rolls and vibrant ambiance. However, as we delved into the evening, the experience began to unravel. The first sign of trouble emerged as we waited, and waited some more, for our rolls to make an appearance. Time seemed to stretch endlessly, and the excitement waned with each passing minute. When the entrees finally arrived, they did so in a staggered fashion, each guest receiving theirs at different times. This unfortunate timing meant that the four of us couldn't enjoy our meals together, disrupting the communal aspect of the dining experience. Furthermore, the oversight of the waitstaff became evident as our water glasses remained unfilled, leaving us parched and somewhat neglected. As we sampled the sushi, another disappointment surfaced--the flavor fell flat. The rolls lacked the punch and zest we had come to expect, with a distinct blandness pervading each bite. Most notably, the sushi rice, a fundamental component of any sushi dish, lacked any discernible seasoning, robbing the rolls of their potential to tantalize the taste buds. Adding to the discordant experience was the restaurant's cacophonous atmosphere. What was once a bustling hotspot, with lines snaking out the door, now seemed to be losing its charm. The din of chatter and clinking cutlery filled the air, making conversation difficult and detracting from the overall dining ambiance. Observing the dwindling crowds, it was clear that something was amiss. Perhaps Napa Valley's culinary scene was evolving, leaving behind establishments that failed to adapt to changing tastes and expectations. Whatever the reason, it was evident that Amami Sushi was falling out of favor, its former allure fading into memory. read more

We had an amazing dining experience at this new Japanese restaurant in downtown Napa, located at the old Hal Hamashita spot. Amami is known for its exceptional fresh fish and a wide selection of delicious sushi rolls, all at affordable prices ranging from $16 to $18. Although I'm not a fan of sushi rolls, I must commend the incredible sashimi platter we ordered. For $60, we received 10 pieces of sashimi, including uni with caviar on top, two types of tuna (including the mouthwatering otoro), and more. The quality and quantity exceeded our expectations, as the owner and chef, Alan, believes in providing a little extra for their customers. We also enjoyed the option of transforming the smaller sushi rolls, like the spicy hamachi roll priced at $9, into incredibly fresh and flavorful handrolls. Another standout dish was the jalapeno hamachi, prepared in the style of Nobu, for just $14. The price for such high-quality fish was very reasonable. To top it off, the miso soup was only $3. Needless to say, we will definitely be returning to Amami for another delightful evening. read more

This place is a gem, beautiful atmosphere and friendly, attentive service. We came in for a late lunch and had an incredible sushi experience. We started with the chef's choice special, which featured seared Wagyu beef and was topped with uni and caviar. It was rich, indulgent, and melt-in-your-mouth tender -- a perfect bite if you're craving something luxurious. Next up was The Bomb roll, shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, and snow crab, topped with assorted fish and jalapeño, lightly torched with a spicy finish and a pop of tobiko. It had the perfect balance of spice, texture, and creaminess. Finally, we tried the OMG roll, shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, and cream cheese, topped with albacore and jalapeño, finished with a citrusy yuzu drizzle. Super flavorful and decadent without feeling too heavy. The fish was fresh, the presentation was gorgeous, and I barely needed soy sauce. Highly recommend for sushi lovers looking for something elevated and exciting. Hands down the best sushi in the area! read more

I visited this restaurant tonight and was incredibly disappointed. We waited over an hour for our food after repeatedly asking the staff for an update, three times, to be exact. Even then, only 4 out of 10 items on our order arrived. Frustrated by the lack of service, we decided to leave. To make matters worse, we saw another customer who had been waiting for his to-go order for 1.5 hours. He ended up getting a refund and leaving empty-handed. The disorganization and poor service here were unacceptable. I won't be returning. read more

The food here is amazing! I can't wait to go back to try more of the super fresh rolls and sashimi! They are still working out some of the kinks on service, but it was definitely worth the wait and you could see the servers hustling to try to help everyone out as quickly as possible! Owner Alan and staff is amazing! read more

This sushi restaurant is truly exceptional! The food and service were impeccable from start to finish. The handrolls were incredible, and the fish was unbelievably fresh. The place is spotless, adding to the overall great experience. Don't miss the garlic edamame--it's a must-try. We'll definitely be back soon! read more
