BEWARE OF GETTING RIPPED OFF I ordered the birthday roll to go which as the menu shows it is $15.25 and is listed under "Special Roll". Now I've been to many other sushi places and typically a roll that price is larger in size than what I received. When I opened to small to go box I shocked to see the tiniest roll with nothing special about it. I decided to call the restaurant in case I was given a different roll than what I ordered but the person on the phone confirmed that that was the correct roll. Adding more insult, he said that if I had gone between Monday-Thursday the roll would've been half off. So apparently I should not go on a Friday because it won't be worth it, got it. He did offer for me to return to the restaurant to return it but by that time I had already driven all the way home and was too hungry to drive all the way back. What I think is going on here is they have accommodated the size of the sushi rolls to be able to sell them for 50% off Mon-Thurs without losing in profit. However the rolls stay their tiny size any other day and people who don't know any better like myself pay full price for a miniature sushi roll. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere for a decent sized, and honestly more delicious, sushi roll anywhere else but here. Never coming back here again.

Today, a friend and I decided to treat ourselves to dinner. We arrived and were seated at an empty hibachi grill. We were served the salad and soup. However, more than 35 minutes went by with no sign of a cook or an update. I went to the hostess stand to ask to sit at a table. They agreed, but did not have a positive look on their face. They acted annoyed. Regardless we moved and waited another 30 minutes for our food to come. When the food arrived, it was cold. The vegetables were hard, the rice tasted like it was old and was also cold. The portion sizes were also small for the $25 that was charged. We complained and were able to get it taken off our bills. However the server and the manager had a very visible attitude during this time. When we told the manager that the food was cold and not good, he said “ok” , walked away, and did not come back, leaving us wondering. It also did not help that the server tried to tell us that she told us it would be a long wait when she never did. Overall, this experience was awful to wait an hour and then be served cold, old food. I will not be back.

Great place since they offer 50% Monday through Friday. This includes all food items! Ordered five rolls and in total came to around $35. This includes the sushi boat and bento box options! We called a few hours ahead of time and they were able to give us a private room for 12 people. Really friendly staff, however they forgot a few things such as soy sauce dishes and utensils.

We ordered food tonight. It was awful. Salad was brown. Food had no flavor and yum yum sauce tasted like old oil. We dine here a lot and this was disappointing at best.
