" I wasn't too impressed with my visit to Tokie's. While the sushi was acceptable, I've had much better at other spots. The service was decent but felt a bit impersonal. I was hoping they'd have more authentic options on the menu, which was a bit disappointing. I might come back to try something different, but I'm not overly excited about it. " (*Curated Review*)
