" High-quality sushi with a homey feel! I loved how the restaurant focused on authentic dishes instead of trying to do things differently like many other places do. The omakase was a delicious adventure and Shoko was so warm and inviting as a host! If I lived in the neighborhood, this would be my regular spot for sushi without a second thought going forward. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a pleasant experience at Inase, though it wasn’t without flaws. The sushi was lovely and the fish was fresh, yet I found the environment quite cluttered. The owners were welcoming and friendly, making our dining experience better. I just wish they could tidy up a little. The value here is exceptional for what you get, especially given the quality of the sushi. " (*Curated Review*)

" Inase blew my expectations! The freshness of the fish is truly unbeatable. I tried the omakase and was thrilled with each course. Jun and Shoko's hospitality made every guest feel special. My main concern was whether they could make the space feel more organized as it’s quite cramped. Still, the quality of the sushi captured my heart. I’ll definitely return for that experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Inase is truly a unique experience! The freshness of each ingredient was commendable, and it felt more like dining with friends than at a restaurant. However, the atmosphere could be improved, as it felt cluttered. The fish is some of the best I've had and the flavors are remarkable. A visit to this restaurant is a must if you love authentic sushi! " (*Curated Review*)

" The casual and friendly vibe at Inase makes for a fantastic dining experience. We were a bit skeptical of the small, cluttered space, but the food blew us away. The sashimi was incredibly fresh and flavorful. I highly recommend the special sashimi bowl. The staff was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. It’s nice to see a couple dedicated to sharing authentic cuisine with us! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I have been searching for a local spot to enjoy authentic sushi without the fuss of fancy decor, and Inase did not disappoint. The omakase was an absolute delight! Each piece of fish was incredibly fresh and beautifully presented. Shoko was an engaging host, making sure we felt right at home. The only downside was the limited seating, which made it a bit cramped. However, the high quality of the food far outweighs this small issue. Looking forward to our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant was highly recommended by a friend, and I’m so glad I went! Walking in, I immediately felt a warm ambiance. The sushi bar is small, but it enhances the intimacy of the dining experience. The fish was of exceptional quality—particularly the soft shell crab. It melted in my mouth! On the downside, the seating was a bit cramped, but it added to the overall charm. I will definitely be a regular from now on! " (*Curated Review*)
