" The sushi here is decent, but I have to be honest, I expected a bit more for the price. The rolls were tasty, but a little smaller than I anticipated. Service was good, but definitely could have been more attentive. It's a nice enough place, just not the best sushi I’ve had. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great service and friendly staff! I had the crispy shrimp rolls, and they were fantastic. The only downside was the slightly long wait but worth it! I'll definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)
