    Love it here. Good prices good portions with a friendly staff. However I would avoid coming during the lunch and dinner rush if you are strapped for time

    Ask for the Toro (fatty tuna). It's the best sushi over there by far. Also the tai and salmon skin are delicious. I totally recommend it.

    Fantastic kaiten (conveyer belt) sushi spot. Prepares nigiri on demand, great value.

    Probably the best sushi in the Bay Area. Friendly staff. Owner works with his wife in front of everybody. Always fresh fish.

    Curry Katsu is amazing - you can't go wrong with that or any of the sushi!

    food was very good but TERRIBLE service. had to flag people down for menus, water, and just about anything we needed. they were very busy but should know that and have enough staff to be competent

    Just an okay sushi place. I like the uni, toro, and salmon, but highly disappointed by the salmon skin sushi.

    I don't really come here for the sushi as their selection is pretty limited and sushi portions are small. However, I do come here for the Katsu Curry dish! Mmmm. Pork cutlet in curry katsu gravy. YUM!

    Sushi boat and quick menu. More "Japan-American" restaurant than a Sushi spot, but still not bad.

    When it's busy they can't really handle it and forget you. It took us like 40 minutes to get our check. Pass on the sake sampler, it's not special.

    If you want a booth, make sure you have 3 people and everyone is there... Smh #notrust

    Avoid. Cheap, low quality ingredients, service struggles to stay in top (but they're very friendly), and place is not very clean.

    seriously, this is ichiban. always melty fresh (doesn't taste 'fishy'), authentic kaitenzushi, big cuts of fish, robust menu... everywhere else rips you off. salmon sushi *****
