" Overall, a great spot! I loved sitting at the sushi bar, talking with the chefs about their favorite rolls. The sushi was fresh, and the presentation was exceptional. The only downside was the wait time during a busy Friday night, but the food was worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had such a wonderful dining experience here! The sushi chef engaged with us, explaining the different types of sushi and helping us decide what to order. The flavors were bold yet refined. The combination of traditional techniques with modern twists on rolls made this a memorable evening. We'll definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations based on the reviews, but my visit to SOTA was a mixed bag. The sashimi was fresh and full of flavor, but my roll felt somewhat underwhelming. Service could have been quicker, as I noticed other tables were being attended to before us. Overall, it's a decent spot, but I've had better sushi elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a subpar visit at SOTA. The food was decent, but I've had far better sushi at other local restaurants. The service was average, and the atmosphere felt a bit too cramped for my liking. It may work for some, but it wasn't for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" SOTA is exceptional! The fish was incredibly fresh, and the variety of rolls was impressive. Service was quick, and the chefs were super friendly. I left feeling truly satisfied with my meal. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with the service during peak hours. While the food quality was decent, we had to wait too long for our orders. When it finally arrived, it was good but not awe-inspiring. I'd recommend it for a casual lunch, but not as a dinner destination. " (*Curated Review*)

" SOTA is my new favorite sushi restaurant. The quality of the fish is always top-notch. I tried several rolls and some sashimi, and everything was delicious. Plus, the ongoing conversation with the chefs made it a fun experience. Highly recommend everyone to try it! " (*Curated Review*)
