Went there with no reservation on what turned out to be a pretty busy night for them and loved it. We'll be going back there again and liked it more than going to Animae, where we'd gone for the same occasion a year earlier. The food was fantastic! It took a long time for anything to come out and one lady wasn't handling the backup well. BUT that didn't change anything about us liking it, in the long run. The food was delicious and sincerely beat Animae. We'll be going back, for sure!

Delicious seafood and excellent service. We ordered the chirashi bowl, salmon carpaccio, crispy rice, and Uni sashimi and everything was absolutely superb. There is an outdoor area which is dog friendly. The service was quick and the server was excellent. Great drink menu as well with many Japanese options. Would definitely recommend and it is a nice area to walk around after.

My GF has been taking me on a "tour de sushi" through San Diego & I was immediately in love with this spot. restaurant was intimate but not in a dark moody way. the sushi was absolutely the freshest I've had at most San Diego spots (and I've been to dozens). Winners will be the fatty tuna & real crab meat vs imitation, and their great selection of different sake. There were enough choices for my GF, who doesn't eat sushi, to select. I had a bit of the karaage & it was quality. Service was friendly & patient with questions,we never felt rushed. overall - definitely a spot we'll be coming back to!
