Had the all fried shrimp and tuna roll it was warm and so delicious! The tempura was crunchy and amazing. Absolutely loved it 10/10.

We had the pokerito and it was great, fresh ingredients, it held up and it was hefty. Worth the price. Even the homemade sauce tasted great.
For food court sushi I wasnt expecting much. They wowed me. I got a poke style salad that had a delicious crunch. The sauce was sweet with a spicy ending. Tried to go back for another serving they were closed. Will be back soon.
I always get the Chicken Katsu from here and it’s always freshly made. Their service is phenomenal! Highly recommend
Thank you! Every time they have delicious and fresh sushi 🍱
Wow the pokerito wrap and spam sushi have blown my mind 👌👌 Will be back asap!

Sorry I was wondering why nobody eating cuz its on the corner . Maybe just because its on the corner . However, I ordered teriyaki chicken just to try it instead of suki hana. However , what a disappointment:(. Sorry I didnt really wanna give bad reviews but :(. The chicken looks and taste like a microwavable food. But, who knows maybe their sushi is the best. I didnt buy it so maybe idk just try it
Just tried the Miso Yummy Soup and it was fine. It tasted a bit like a chicken broth base though. I would go back, but would try one of the bento combos next time.

We had the poke bowl and pokerito burrito. Poke bowl had too much onion and it’s not even listed on the ingredients.

Meh......try something else.... Order two rolls. The philly roll looks good, but the tempura one was over cooked to where the fish was dry and there's a heavy mayonnaise taste. Main complaint though.....no napkins....none, whatsoever.....
What kind of sushi place is it ? Don’t have proper soya sauce or wasabi to go with it

Ordered the krispy fried chicken and rice. After 15 minutes of waiting, we were served cut up chicken nuggets and onion rings on a bed of rice… for $15. We asked them and they assured us it was battered in house. One star for the variety of sauces.
I've had airplane food better than this. Got the Bento 2 with chicken and they basically sliced up a fried chicken tender and served it on rice. The miso soup is extremely dilute and filled with cabbage from the salad (???). The cashier obviously wanted to leave as soon as possible and did the absolute bare minimum for which I couldn't really blame them for. I wouldn't want to work here either.
The teriyaki chicken and rices chicken feels really uncooked with pink spots and the chicken feels like sponges I don’t recommend the teriyaki chicken. So disappointed

the food here is pretty bad and not worth anyone’s money. The miso soup is pretty pathetic too. I got a single baby carrot in mine and tofu. Never seen a miso soups like that before ever. Wouldnt eat here again or recommend to anyone.
It’s not what you are hoping for, trust me.
Probably one of the worst ramen I ate in my life. The rest ... equally bad.
Do not order the chicken teriyaki! It is processed chicken with fake grill marks and simply heated rather than made at the restaurant! The chicken tastes like flavorless pasty tofu and the teriyaki sauce is non-existent. You are better off eating chicken nuggets from McDonalds for a half the prices that tastes like a Michelin meal in comparison the the god awful “chicken teriyaki”. I honestly didn’t think one could ruin chicken teriyaki but this place managed to do so. The meal is the most processed, tasteless pile of rice and something that vaguely resembles chicken meat.
I use to eat here a few years ago after skating and had wonderful experiences. Unfortunately, this place seems to have gone down hill. First of all, the sushi looked nothing like what was pictured or what it use to (hard to explain but, it looked like bad gas-station sushi). The fish did not taste fresh. The crab tasted off. It was also served on this paper tray that the rice would get stuck to and the sushi would get ripped in half. The spicy garlic edamame was half drizzled in this brown sticky sweet syrup and the "garlic" was little bits of it thrown on top. The edamame was also very dry. The service was also very half-assed and dismissive. But I would have paid no mind to that at all had the food been somewhat decent. For the price, this was worse then sushi I could have grabbed at Vons. I am very very disappointed. I will not be eating here again.
