Lauren T: Don't know what to order? Get the rock shrimp tempura, best tasting dish I've had in a long time!
Tony Park: An amazing restaurant, I try to get to it every time I am in town. Try the tempura rock shrimp or the Brussel Sprout Salad. The Lobster Wagu roll...cue the drooling...now.
Elyse Estrada: Amazing sushi! Start w/ the saketini, oxtail pot stickers, rock shrimp tempura. Get crispy rice spicy tuna jalapeño and escolar "the great white". Both to die for. Then have more "living jewel" sake.
Mike Schatzman: Amazing happy hour from 5pm - 6:30pm: $1 Oysters, $2 Beef Filet Skewers and $3 Shrimp Tempura Rolls.
Ms Helene: Black rice sushi sampler $27, spicy tuna, eel & crab, shrimp tempura and sweet potato tempura. BBQ sampler $28, 1 scallop, 2 shrimp jalapeño and 3 meats but cauliflower miso best. Perfect for 2.
Kinshasa Hawkins: Try the Truffled Tuna, King Crab Legs, Scallops, & Lamb Chops - all were super delicious! For rolls... the Shrimp Tempura, Bay Street Cali (get it w/blk rice) & Hokkaido were all amazing.

Liz Weber: The crab rangoon and the sweet potato tempura maki are to die for!

Eater: The specialty sushi burritos are hulking wraps of rice packed with proteins like tempura shrimp, spicy tuna, tuna ceviche and Korean BBQ beef. Read more.
Scott R: Really interesting take on the sushi roll. Tempura fried seaweed in place of taco shell, then packed just like a sushi roll. Inventive and delicious.
Anika Huang: The sushi tacos, poke bowls, and sushi burritos are PHENOMENAL. I especially recommend the lava poke bowl if you love spicy and the crunchy sushi burrito.

Alfred Ko: Banana Tempura roll is surprisingly awesome!
Kristin: 50% off Monday tasted, well, like 50% off . . . . Service was excellent but the sushi just was not good. Banana Tempura is very sweet - save this for dessert if you do decide to try Nori.
V: Red Nori and Dragon are must to try, so good. Service is very nice and fast. Area outside is perfect for summer nights.
Angie Munoz: Gyoza and shrimp tempura rolls were alright. Pier 69, i did not like. Chicago roll was REALLY good! My husband ordered the Robata #2 and enjoyed it. Miso soup is really good here too, very flavorful.
Bethany Ulrich: Blown away by the tasty sushi rolls, the sweet potato tempura, the udon, the byob policy and of course the beautiful artwork!
Jill: My fave roll in the city: pot river. Cilantro? Yes

Serious Eats: Sambal Fish Taco: The tempura frying method is an inspired choice, since it produces a particularly crackly crust. It easily stands up to spicy sambal sauce, losing none of its crunch along the way.
Ed: The shrimp tempura taco and the grilled short ribs taco won't disappoint you!
Eater: The restaurant helped popularize Korean-inspired street food, such as tacos filled with sesame-chili shrimp, tempura fish, grilled short rib, spicy barbecue pork and more. Read more.

lance elliot: Vegetable tempura and orange "chicken" was amazing. They stay crispy forever.
Julie Fekete: The soy chicken wrap and green power salad (with peanut sauce) are my two favorite items on the menu!
Jenny: The peanut sauce is the best I've ever had. I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but I'll take soy chicken from here over real chicken anywhere else. Even the meat-loving boyfriend likes it!
