Some of the best Sushi I've had anywhere. Restaurant is small and tables are at a premium. I sat at the counter and service was great. Menu is large and it's a bit difficult to narrow down what you want to order. My suggestion is stick to the sushi and don't worry about rolls why up the quality fish anyway?... More

When I have chances to stay overnight in Costa Mesa/Irvine area (Maybe 2-3 times a year.), I try to eat there as often I can.

The dishes are unlike those found at most sushi restaurants (no California rolls, e.g.), and there's no soy sauce at the table. The sushi chef seasons each item as he likes, and... More
