All of the rolls were SO good! The staff was very friendly and very informative about the menu. The fish was fresh, and there were some new types of rolls I haven't seen at other places.

What a great find! Was Looking for a Japanese restaurant with outdoor dining since we had our dogs and this place came up in our search. Great menu with so many options and the food was excellent! And the portions were very large. Will definitely go back!

Went here today with my aunt and this place was pretty good this place has very fresh fish. Service was nice and kind. And the ambiance is family friendly and traditional Japanese decor.

This place is a hidden gem! Our first visit was a few years ago. Each visit, staff was always exceptional. The food is amazing! I'm very picky with Japanese food, having spent a lot of time in Japan. I highly recommend.

This is a tough rating to give. I feel like an accurate rating might be 4.3 stars. They have really good sushi. I would say it is in the top 5 in Monterey County. Their restaurant lacks climate control. The bathroom needs a remodel. The Orion beer they import is AMAZING, and it is awesome that they serve it with a chilled glass. The sushi is good, dont get me wrong. Their Green Muscles are overcooked, and they came out fast. Thats alarming to me as they are supposed to be baked. That said, I have had it done right elsewhere, so I am comparing it to a 5 star. The over cooked I prefer to undercooked lol. The sauce and toppings were authentic and very good. I keep coming back to the sushi. The quality is 5 star, but I feel the menu needs some serious tweeking. Maybe change up some rolls or add some rolls. Its just that feeling you get when you are somewhere you know can make what you want, but they don't have it. It's good. Please don't get me wrong, but there are areas that can be improved upon and I feel like maybe because no one is a stand out sushi star in the area they don't see an example of how. I wish them the best and hope they continue to serve the area. I might also suggest opening at 3 pm, but thats their choice. I am thankful they are here serving the area.

Can't go wrong with this place. Always fresh. Service is pretty fast. Restaurant does close a short period after lunch time. Ramens are good if your not in the mood for sushi and so are their bento boxes.

Came here for lunch, was sat quickly. It was busy, but the waitress was prompt to take my order. They have ample outdoor seating for the wonderful Monterey afternoons, but I decided to sit inside. They have high chairs for the kids, and the restroom was very clean. As for the food, I had the Agedashi Tofu, and a dragon crunch roll w/ iced tea. The sauce that came with the tofu was divine. No hyperbole... Probably top 10 sauces that I've had in my life. The 4 stars came from the preparation of the tofu. The tofu wasn't as firm as I like, and the chunks of tofu were too large. The roll I had was wonderful. I definitely will come back here and get the Agedashi, every time. Price: $30 (includes 20% tip)
