Please see my attached photos for the menu in October 2025. I ate lunch here one time. Two employees immediately and kindly gave me a menu, took my order and payment, and prepared my food. For seating some tables and chairs were in a room upstairs. The interior was old, but I understand that remodeling costs money, and at least everything looked clean. I ate the Salmon Poke, which contained fresh salmon, spicy crab, seaweed salad, masago roe, edamame, lettuce, and rice. I drank a Choya-brand plum soda. I thought that both tasted very good, and I particularly liked the chunks of salmon. The total price for the bowl and soda was $26 plus tip.

My usual order is the chicken katsu bento box, which comes with a good portion of crunchy sliced chicken katsu, rice, two dumplings, a California roll, and miso soup. It feels like a solid, filling meal with enough variety to make it satisfying. The only downside with my most recent takeout order was the sauce placed in the middle of the container. I'm not sure exactly what it was, and after tasting it, it wasn't really for me. Because of the layout of the takeout container, some of it spilled into the rice and rolls. Next time, I'd probably ask for that sauce on the side in a separate container.

My go-to order is always the chicken katsu bento, and it is the perfect, filling lunch every time. It comes with a California roll, rice, and a few shumai dumplings, and you can choose either a side salad or miso soup. I love that it feels like a full, well-rounded meal without having to think too hard about what to order. I've dined in once before and had a great experience, but most of the time I call ahead for pickup or order through Uber Eats. Either way, the quality is consistently excellent. This has been a reliable lunch staple for me for years, and I keep coming back because it never disappoints.

Our server, Cat, was knowledgeable, attentive, and immediately picked up on our social cues, blending in to the chitchat we enjoy, while we could hear her behind us giving another table the alone time they preferred. She is the best server I have experienced in a long time. I heard her tell another table that her whole family is in the restaurant business, and her comfort and skill with every table made that abundantly clear. Too bad we were not hungry enough to order more, because everything was fantastic. We had the chef's selection of sashimi and of sushi (two different dishes) and a takoyaki appetizer. Everything was fresh and delicious, and the different sauces on the nigiri and sashimi elevated the fish in amazing ways. Of course, all of this joy is just highlighted by the incredible three-river view, which my wife said was a great way to start her weekend here. What a great place!

If I had to pick, the chawanmushi, unagi gozen, and New Zu cocktail would be my favorites although I would order every single thing we got again! We were really impressed by how fresh our fish was.

It was an anniversary dinner we won't forget. If you're coming in, note that they do change their menu seasonally. But worth stopping in. It's a nice change of pace from being in downtown.

Dining in, takeout, and GrubHub delivery are available. My husband and I ate lunch in the dining room. An employee promptly and courteously greeted us and seated us at a clean, small table. For an appetizer, we each received a cucumber salad that my husband described as "really good," and we ate every morsel! My husband received his entree many minutes before I received mine. He ate the pad see ew with chicken, and he said that it was "average" like other restaurants' pad see ews and that he liked it. I ate the special lobster-tail roll, which was a large size and contained a Maine lobster tail, avocado, asparagus, avocado, masago, spicy mayo, eel sauce, and tobiko roe. Part of it was fried. I really enjoyed the lobster meat and sauces. The total price for these two entrees was $45 plus tax and tip.

The sauce on the chicken was tasty, but the quality of the chicken was so poor that I questioned if it was chicken. Upon opening the tuna roll container, there was a waft of old/low grade seafood.

The restaurant was empty but I did see a number of people come in for takeout orders. I like that you can customize your own poke bowl or sushi roll if you want, but they also have traditional types of rolls like rainbow rolls, California rolls, etc. in addition to poke bowls and sushi rolls, they also offer bento boxes, party platters, sides, and drinks. I only had to wait a few minutes for my order to my completed. One thing I will say about this place is that they are generous with their portions. My poke bowl lasts me two days, which is nice. The staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean. Definitely one of my go-tos.
