Just after getting done with our show at SF mint, we came here for a light dinner. Although they close at 9 PM, they were kind to let us dine in. Service is great and so was the house hot sake. I wasn’t a fan of the sushi but Imari was decent enough.

A bit of a hidden place, but it certainly is a gem. Sushi came out quickly and was delicious. The calamari we got was alright.

Went for happy hour, 6 dollar wine and 5 dollar hand rolls. How can you beat that? Our server was so sweet. Also very generous serving of wine. Just go you won’t be disappointed!

Ordered the crunchy spicy tuna roll and it was good. Ambiance was nice too plus they were playing R&B.

Food was decent but slow to serve, I went to a really slow time between 1:30pm and 2:30pm and either way took them a lot to serve it, the fish was not overdue but not fresh and the roll was more avocado then fish, little disappointed.

I thought the sushi was very well prepared and done in a stylish way, but it had a little less taste then other places I had been. The price was maybe a little high for the quality but no unreasonable.

A great sushi place, with a great selection. I decided to opt for freshwater eel and I am super glad I did, everything about this dish was better-than-expected and seriously met my expectations, and considering that freshwater eel is my favorite food to eat at a sushi restaurant, that’s saying something
