" Had a fantastic family dinner at SOTA. Everything from the chicken katsu to the sushi was prepared beautifully. The portions were generous and reasonably priced. The staff made us feel welcome, and the dining space, although small, was cozy. It's great to support a family-run business! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited SOTA tonight for the first time, and I was captivated by the flavors in every dish. The chef’s selections were on point; you could tell they care about quality. Each bite felt genuine. It's a bit pricey, but for the quality and taste, I’d say it’s worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious sushi, but the portions were smaller than expected for the price. I enjoyed the flavors, but I wish the rolls had more filling. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was inviting. I might return to try more sashimi next time. " (*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*)
