Overall the place is clean and the staff was friendly. My food was really good. The sushi was OK it could have had more flavor. My entree were both very good. I would recommend to anyone coming through to stop here. I may not come twice but it was a good first time.

Wish I could do 4.5 stars, the main dishes were delicious and very well done. It was the specialty sushi rolls that were a little underwhelming but otherwise food was great for the price. The cocktails are tasty too. Would recommend stopping by when in the area

My husband lovesssss sushi, and we have been on the hunt for one of the best places in Cincinnati. I think this by far has been one of his favorite places. The atmosphere was definitely a calming vibe, and the sushi was 1/2 price off. Noooowww that Korean chicken hands down delicious

This sweet little place feeds my stomach and my soul. The best sushi, incredible kimchi pancakes, and the loveliest of staff. The aesthetic here is charming and fresh, and it draws you in to have a good time and eat your weight in spicy tuna rolls.

Absolutely wonderful sushi. The atmosphere is inviting, the food was fresh and service is friendly. All sushi is half price as well which makes it even better! They have a large selection of sushi rolls as well as entrees. I was very surprised how fresh the sushi tasted being as we are in Cincinnati. We will be back!

Celiac’s Review: We felt safe here for gluten free sushi. A lot of places have so much fried sushi that they go as far to say that all of their rolls are not celiac safe. And the prices are not bad at all for having a front and center OTR view. They also let us bring our own gluten free cake to celebrate a birthday!

I haven’t had a single thing here that wasn’t delicious. Last week we went twice because the sushi was so good, 3 days later I was craving it again. The space is smaller so if you have a large group prepare for that! With 2 or 3 people we’ve always at least gotten a bar seat. Take out is also quick and still tastes amazing after traveling!
