This place overall great. The sushi was super fresh and everything tasted great. You can tell it’s the real deal. The place was such a good vibe too. Not too bright, homey and cute. And of course the service was perfect. They were friendly and attentive, not pushy. They kept our waters filled and gave great suggestions about the fresh catch of the day. Oh and the chilled and unfiltered sake was amazing! Totally hit the spot on a hot Berkeley day!

The hot noodle is really good. What makes it good is the broth. They make the broth with bonito flakes, mackerel, and kelp daily. So it is really tasty. Thanks he rolls are alright. They have a new chef making them so it was taking a very long time to make (45 min). I’ll come back for the hot noodle.

Great quality fish. Chefs are really Japanese so I have good hope in this place and wasn’t disappointed. They also have daily recommended for fresh fish from Tokyo Fish Market. Space a little cramp like they open only half-section of restaurant but overall I enjoyed this place and will definitely recommend. Picture is Assorted Tempura

Omakase was decent and ramen soup was tasty. Could have better ramen noodles but overall good experience. That ramen pepper is epic. Kaki fry definitely a good crunch and suffiently sized oysters.

They took a long time to bring us the food but they brought it all at different times which is not cool specially since the other people have to wait to get the remainder food and on top of that they forgot one person’s order on top of waiting so long . Also that didn’t deserve a 20% tip which was mandatory on bill

The sushi here is really first rate. Ask what’s best – everything is always good but they’ll tell you what’s just come in from Tokyo or what’s most wonderful, and their specials are nothing like what you’ve bought in a box from a regular sushi place. For a splurge, get the omakase dinner – it’s the chef’s choice sushi special plate, really. Una-jyu was also spectacular. writing this, I want it all over again!

There was a long wait to get in but we dont mind waiting for good quality food. We got two sushi rolls, an appetizer and a bowl of miso soup. The soup was okay, not great and frankly overpriced at $4 per bowl. The rolls were excellent, though a bit small. Not overly saucy which we appreciated. The waiter, young guy, kept forgetting things. I had to stand up and walk over to the sushi chef to ask for water and later for some teriyaki sauce. Our appetizer came after we had already finished all our rolls which was disappointing. We got the chicken karrage which was okay but again not great. It was under seasoned hence the need for teriyaki sauce.

It may look like an average neighborhood sushi restaurant, but they actually serve well made and generous portions of very high quality fish. One of the better sushi options in the area!
