The main thing i like is how open and comfortable the seating is. Relaxed, dim lighting and you don't feel squeezed into the space. There is a good variety of food options; I highly recommend the Spicy Tuna Bomb. I will say, the basic sushi and sashimi options are a bit pricy, but still very good quality. Better to spend your money on the delectable specialty appetizers and a meal shared between two people. Service was quick and kind, no complaints there. Will be going back.

I went in for lunch today, right after opening on a Wednesday. The hibachi chef had the best energy of any I have ever seen, and even though there were only two of us at the table he went all out and we had smiles on our faces the whole time. Our server Ivy was also amazing. The food was so good that I couldn't stop myself from eating it long enough to get a picture!! I will definitely be back.

Went here for sushi and it was amazing! We sat at the sushi bar and it was so fun to see the people right there making all of the rolls. The food came out very fast for how busy the restaurant was that night and our waitress was very attentive even when sitting at the sushi bar. Each sushi roll was larger than normal and delicious.

Food was delicious. I got the salmon and swordfish and both were made better than other places I've been. Very interactive experience, the cook throws food into everyone's mouth as well as squirts water or sake into the mouth of everyone that wants it.

I have came here many times and have had many great experiences. Along with that I have also eat at many upscale sushi restaurants around the north east. While the presentation of the plates aren’t anything special the actual sushi that is delivered is high quality and delicious. As for the hibachi it’s entertaining and perfect for a group night out. Do be prepared to spend a bit but the price is worth the experience and quality.
