    We've been waiting for this place to open, so it was such a nice surprise when we noticed the neon "Open" sign while walking by. We immediately diverted course and stopped in here for some lunch, which we were able to enjoy on their outdoor patio. This restaurant is run by a husband/wife team. The husband previously worked as a chef at Nobu in Chicago. The table service we experienced was excellent. Food came out quickly, one after the other as we finished each dish, and our questions were answered patiently. We were able to try a wide cross section of dishes from the expansive menu, including the Crispy Brussels Sprouts appetizer, Salmon Asian Pear "cold dish," 'Winter' classic maki, and the vegetarian sweet potato maki. Everything was expertly assembled with an intentional flavor profile. I think the Salmon Asian Pear was probably my favorite, followed by the Winter maki. If you've had crispy Brussels sprouts before, you probably know about those burned, extra crispy bits that most of the table covets; Deba's version is pretty much only those individual crispy leaves. The sweet potato maki was good, but the sweet potato was breaded, so a little heavier than other versions I've had. Innovation does come at a cost; each dish is so light, fresh, and delicious, that, depending on what you order, $20 can disappear in just three or four bites. Lovely bites, but worth noting.

    Crispy rice with salmon

    Really really great! Got take out from Deba last night, I was super excited when I saw a sushi place was coming to downtown Mt.P. Everything I got was very good. The salmon crispy rice was delicious, the salmon and avocado roll was solid, but my favorite was the salmon honey roll. Such great flavors. Going to go back to dine in restaurant, it's super cute in there.

    If you're looking for a quality omakase experience without having to drive into the city, this spot…read moreis definitely worth checking out. They offer five different omakase sets, each with a great variety of the chef's signature appetizers and nigiri pieces. Everything we had was incredibly fresh, and you could really taste the quality of the fish. The balance of flavors was spot on, and every piece was thoughtfully seasoned. You honestly don't need soy sauce because each bite is meant to be enjoyed exactly as it's served. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their premium maki rolls and hand rolls. This is definitely a spot I'll be adding to my regular rotation.

A few chewy seaweed pieces but I won't let that knock the freshness of the sushi. Service is where I have to drop a star. Not friendly, just pointed to the bar and told us to have a seat. When she came to take our order she didn't greet us or ask about anything besides "what would you like". We ordered 4 rolls which came out fairly quick...one at a time and the last two together. We then asked for 2 more rolled after flagging her down. She kept coughing which was a bit off putting. Assuming she was sick and maybe wasn't feeling well. Eeeeek. I'd go back as the place is close, cozy and quality of sushi was better than others in the area. I also like the options they had which were not the standard as we find around most places in this area. Usually they're similar rolls with different names.

I'm personally glad this didn't deter me, because the food was really good. I think AYCE is the best option but they also offer individually priced items. I enjoyed all the rolls and nigiri I ordered. I also had the shrimp shumai which was pretty average and I think hindered my ability to finish all pieces of sushi ($0.50 per piece for a regular roll left over, I had two mushroom pieces left and wanted to eat them because they were so yummy but just couldn't do it). The first plate is also served with a little pottery piece with dry ice, which was a fun addition! Service is attentive. Your host will make sure you understand how to order and the busser makes sure your water is filled and you have all the accoutrements for your soy sauce, etc. ACCESSIBILITY NOTE: the entrance has an angle which may not be conducive to electric wheelchairs; there are track stickers on the floor to help with walking but the floor is a bit slippery otherwise.

This is a serious food safety and quality-control issue, especially because sushi is ready-to-eat and consumed without cooking. Finding plastic in my food makes me question the restaurant's preparation and handling procedures. This could have been accidentally swallowed and caused serious harm. A mistake like this should never happen, and I strongly believe the restaurant needs to take immediate steps to improve its food preparation and packaging practices. I expected much higher standards and will not be ordering from here again!

    Made a 6:30 reservation here on a Friday because I was given a gift card for Shakou. The arrival /…read moreseating was disappointing. We had to stand in the lobby for 5 minutes without much information, while other groups who came in without a reservation after us were seated before us. Furthermore, the reservation was for the "Patio" and while technically we were seated on the "Patio", I would say it was the bottom rung of the patio. Sat at the first table outside the restaurant, underneath the awning with a bird's nest overhead chirping the entire time. Essentially in my opinion, when you make a reservation somewhere, you don't really expect to be seated in probably the worst location they have to offer. Food was pretty decent. We had two bowls basically. Both were okay, like any Sushi style restaurant, prices were a bit high, especially considering their location in the heart of the AH downtown. I would come again, but for a first try it wasn't anything special for sure.

    Had a reservation for three people and was impressed right away -- the interior was beautiful and…read morehad a really nice atmosphere. It was pretty busy, probably because there was a food fest happening outside, but we were seated on time. I started with a blackberry mocktail, which was refreshing and not too sweet. For appetizers, we tried the lobster and shishito peppers -- both were delicious! The lobster paired perfectly with the dip, and the peppers had just the right amount of flavor. Unfortunately, service was on the slower side. Our server checked in only occasionally, and the entrées took quite a while to come out. I ordered the teriyaki salmon, which ended up being overcooked and a bit charred on the side, so it wasn't very enjoyable. The couscous and veggies that came with it, however, were really good. Overall, it was a nice spot with great ambiance and appetizers, but the slow service and overcooked entrée left me unsure if I'd come back to this location.

The menu is much less, the food portions are less, and the container the food comes in is plastic and made for to go orders even though we dined in. The service was also not very friendly and when our waitress brought our food, she didn't even smile or say anything. She just plopped down the food and walked off. This used to be my favorite restaurant but I don't think I'm coming back.

When you go inside, they have a sufficient amount of tables to sit at, but it wasn't very busy on a Saturday night. You order at the register and he brings it out to you. You'll have to be patient, they don't have a lot of staff. We ordered tako karaage (fried octopus), croquettes, Taiwan style tonkotsu ramen with 2 pieces of chashu, and the deluxe bento with butashoga (ginger pork). I had a bite of the pork and it was delicious. Ginger was not overpowering. Tender meat. Prices were very affordable and cheap. Service was great and he brought out our food hot and freshly made. I would definitely come back and try other items. -tako karaage 5 - it had a nice little chew and was not overly fried. Great taste. -croquettes 5 - I loved these. When you bite into them, they're soft. Flavorful, savory filling inside. I should have gotten more of these. -Taiwan style tonkotsu ramen 5 - noodles were chewy. Bountiful amount of ground pork. The two chashu pieces were tender and easy to break apart. Broth was not heavy, it was just right.
