" This is the perfect little sushi spot! I love the relaxed vibe here. The tuna tartare was exquisite, and the sushi rolls were equally impressive. The wait for a table was a bit long, but the food made it worthwhile! I enjoyed every bite and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic sushi in the city. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time trying proper sushi, and I absolutely loved the experience. The rolls I tried were bursting with flavors and had a fantastic texture.

Highly recommended for sushi newbies and veterans alike. " (*Curated Review*)
