Above all, the fish quality and freshness is excellent and the nigiri felt especially authentic (not too much rice, sizable cuts of fish done in the traditional style). The akami and hamachi belly were particularly great. The toro scallion and king salmon crunch hand rolls were also favorites. Our opinions were more split on the spicy tuna crispy rice (I loved, husband was more lukewarm) and dumplings (obviously very freshly prepared but quite fried). The overall ambience is airy, quiet and calm and service was warm and fast. We would have loved to try the cocktails as they sound really interesting -- next time!

Beautiful space with fun sushi rolls in Park Slope!…read more The inside of the restaurant is very sleek and minimalist with nice wooden accents- very calming. The space is pretty large, with a good amount of tables in addition to bar seating. I split the tuna crispy rice and the signature roll set and it was plenty of food for two. The signature roll set had an assortment of interesting and unique rolls ranging from truffle to mango- my fave was the New York crunch w potato crisps on top. The tuna crispy rice was also a bit different- served as a tartare w crispy rice chips for dipping. Very crispy and tasty though! Service was super attentive and very welcoming. Definitely will be coming back if I'm in the area.

This is the best sushi I have ever had. Though, I should mention I only recently learned to enjoy…read moresushi and have not indulged beyond salmon rolls and haven't yet gained appreciation for raw fish with a bite. Regardless, it's the best salmon roll I've ever had -- buttery with a delicate, fresh flavor wrapped in fragrant rice in perfect proportions. After experiencing the first salmon roll that I could stomach and finally understanding the hype a while ago, I've tried dozens of rolls throughout the city at many price points and this was my favorite experience. It's also relatively very affordable; my meal of a miso cod appetizer (flaky scrumptious simplicity), miso soup, a salmon roll, and green tea cheesecake came to $54 + tip. The service was also excellent. I'm the sort to dine solo with a novel, want to be completely left alone, and not notice the quality of service at all. The waitress provided the feel of an independent experience while also being very attentive, pleasant, and informative. There was an art to her skill that prompted me to observe and note an art to the service I rarely do. The staff was very watchful and reaction; everyone was well cared for. I'm inspired to try something over than a salmon roll. This seems to be the place to do it. I'll also add I was surprised to read the review on them refusing to let a guest take their leftovers home. I had just a few bites of my dessert remaining, and they asked me if I'd like it boxed unprompted.

Tried the Omakon, chef choice 5 shashimi, 6 nigiri and 1 handroll. Overall I loved each round of seafood. They picked the progression perfect. There was a really buttery fatty tuna and the mackerel was the best I have ever had. I really enjoyed the meal and will certainly come here again. We were both sufficiently full but ended up getting dessert. The mochi came in 3 flavors and was a great ending to the meal. I will also say the prices are great for some really solid suchi.

It's now my son's favorite restaurant, which says a lot because he's a very picky 12-year-old. The sushi is excellent, and the potato dish is a huge hit for us. Honestly, everything on the menu is delicious. I definitely recommend it.

They have an extensive cocktail menu with unique flavors. My husband and I started with Miso Soup and Spicy Cucumber. The miso soup was perfect for the cold weather. The spicy cucumber left more to be desired not only was it not spicy, it wasn't that flavorful at all. It tasted like just cucumber. For our main, we shared the Goma Hamachi, American Wagyu Steak, Seared Salmon Roll. The hamachi and salmon roll were our favorites. So flavorful. The steak was okay. Cooked to our liking but flavor-wise wasn't anything spectacular. The sauce it came with tasted like oil with no seasoning. For my drink, I had the margarita with mezcal. It was amazing. For the service, I wish the food had been timed out better. We had a small two top table and the food came out so quickly. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing but we rushed eating our apps because we had no table space. We had to constantly shift plates, the candle, and our drinks to make room. It was slightly frustrating.

Amazing little Japanese restaurant!!!…read more I'm always on the hunt for new sushi spots to gorge myself on raw fish. This was an amazing find! It's one of those bitterly cold New York nights and my husband is on his way out of town on business tomorrow, so we wanted to have a cute night out before he goes. We opted for a smaller restaurant to avoid any rushes and I can say for a fact we were not disappointed. I had the spicy dinner rolls (that were enough for two people if I am to be honest), and my husband had the classic sushi dinner. I'd definitely return.

I loved…read morethe ambiance and decor of the place including their handmade bowls and plates, which are individually made by the owner --wow. To start off, we had the Cheeseburger Dumplings ($12), which was so unique. We've never had something like this and they executed it really well. The dumplings were filled with meat and fried with a skirt. The cheese part was topped over it like a melty dressing, so a delicious and special dish here. Plus, it had a side salad to balance all the grease here. For the entrees, we had to get the udon and shared the Niku Udon ($25) and Salmon Ikura Udon ($30). It was a nice combo between a hot and cold udon. The Niku was your classic udon bowl filled with plenty of beef and a perfectly soft-boiled egg. The broth was sweet and savory for a warm and comforting meal. On the other hand, the salmon udon was quite unique with matcha udon and fresh salmon. There is a dashi to pour and mix into the noodles, which still gave it flavor and the slurp you want in a udon. Both were so great in its own way. Even their ramen also looked great, but I love all noodles. Definitely a great spot to dine near Barclays Center. Love to come back whenever I'm in the area again. The udon dishes are on the pricier side, but they're huge bowls.

Since they have handmade noodles, we ordered the karaage ramen and Niku udon. While the texture of the noodles were great and broth not too salty (which is good), the protein toppings were just OK. The beef in the Niku udon was overcooked so texture was springy and tough. Karaage in the ramen felt greasy and breading hard rather than crispy. Overall, the dishes were just OK for how much they costed. Staff was courteous, interior design was cool, and their bowls are beautifully shaped.
