Arrived around 11:30am to find the line around the corner. It went pretty fast, and we got though in about 20 mins. There were a few people in line that didn't know what to expect and were a little overwhelmed in what to choose. I noticed that some of the boxes were similar so I asked what some of the differences were before choosing. Overall it was tasty! Some of them had enough wasabi to clear my sinuses... I'm not sure if that amount was standard or they were just heavy handed.

A sushi takeout restaurant with omakase quality! The quality is definitely not inferior compared to other omakase places I've visited, especially for the price, and the seasonal fish changes are fantastic. I recommend eating it after 30 minutes to an hour.

Food wise, excellent. I’ll start by saying that. It’s a fair value and great idea if you’re looking for good omakase without paying the prices of going to a sit in restaurant.

The fish was fresh, rice was done perfectly. The flavors were delicious.

The reason for my low rating is the poor, disorganized service. I arrived at the restaurant 20 min before opening, was 8th in line.
By the time I got to the counter, a gentleman just walked in for his shift. I tried to order the omakase box since many customers before me ordered the same. The guy told me, we’re sold out. I asked if they were going to make more, I was willing to wait a bit. I mean literally the restaurant opened for 5 min. That’s strange. He said, no you might have to come back, could be an hour, could be 3 hours, I can’t tell you when.

So I proceeded to order the other items, a tuna tekka don and a 5 piece sushi. When I got to the register to pay, another young lady was ringing me out. As I was paying, they brought out 5 boxes of omakase and were selling it to the people after me. I was super confused, asked to add one of those to my order, since that was what I really wanted from the start. They charged me again for the omakase, told me it’ll be a 5 min wait.

Then when the next batch of omakase boxes started coming out, instead of giving them to me as I was waiting patiently in the corner, they started giving it to people even LATER in the line up. I was like, what is happening?! I was 8th in line and everybody who arrived after me got their order and was gone before me. I had to walk back up to the counter to ask for my box before they were going to give it to me. And since the boxes came out only a few at a time, if I didn’t intervene, who knows when I’ll be getting my order. And according to the man, it could sell out any second.

Anyways, poor communication, bad service, really would deter me from coming back or recommending this place. What a shame to have that guy at front of house.

There is so much to love about this place. Tasty rice. Excellent fish. Gorgeous presentations. It’s take out and we ate a near by park. If you know that ahead of time you won’t be disappointed except they sell out fast. I am sure this will be an outdated review soon enough but it is an excellent addition to our sushi scene.

This takeout sushi spot has been getting a lot of attention on social media lately so I swung by for a quick lunch. Previous reviews said to line up early so I got here 15 minutes before opening as a line was forming already. They put out 5 boxes of each sushi option at a time (with more in the back if available) so things can run out from time to time.

Aesthetically speaking this spot is a gem, the interior gives off minimalist Japanese vibes with colorful and beautifully decorated boxes of sushi. I tried the tuna set and it was good though didn’t exceed my expectations like social media made it out to be.

The one thing that seems absurd to me is how steep of pricing they are charging for the boxes. The omakase 10 piece takeout for example is $54 which comes close to what a dine in place would charge. I would’ve expected the boxes to be cheaper given that it’s a takeout only joint so seems the prices are mostly for the aesthetics and pictures in my opinion.
