This place is on the money. If you love fresh thick cut sashimi, this is the place to go. They have this amazing sashimi platter that is so vibrant and beautiful you almost dont want to eat it. From beginning to end our server was extremely helpful and made our dining experience wonderful. They gave us a complimentary fish dish that was amazing to start off our night. I ordered a special roll that was not in seaweed. I have never seen a roll without seaweed so i tried it and it was delicious. A bit pricey but definitley worth every penny!
- Pros: Beautiful creations of sushi
- Cons:

I love the udon soups. The one particular soup I ordered was served in a hot crock with a lot of seafood, vegetables and noodles. By far, it is the best Japanese soup I've had in the area. It beats Royin, Evanston, in my book.
- Pros: Best udon soups and sushi

I was there for dinner and I was impressed. Impressed by the host, the server, and the food. The server recommended this amazing Pinot Noir that they were featuring that night that . We were also given a free appetizer that was very thoughtful. They have a very different menu than most Japanese restaurants I have been to. Everything was so plentiful and delicious. We left impressed and more than satisfied. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone!
- Pros: great food great service
