Lemon , UFC, dragon rolls and the "ex-boyfriend" are so delicious and our go-to's. The food is always consistent and service is quick

The First Date Box and O-Fish-Al-Date Box were beyond expectations. We were low-key expecting the sushi to arrive in typical to-go containers, but the presentation was impeccable. We have eaten at the restaurant several times so felt comfortable to try take-out for once, and are beyond happy with the quality. The quality of the fish and rolls tasted the same as in restaurant. Highly recommed for a staying-in type of date night!

Veggie tempura was soggy and the batter fell off. The rolls were so poorly rolled that they came apart just picking up a piece. And the wasabi was neon green and spiceless. I could have gotten better sushi from the counter at Vons.

This place doesn't know how to pack the steaming hot food separately from the cold sushi. Whenever I order my sushi is warm and disgusting. Even when I specifically request for it to be packed separate.

First of all, Danielle was exceptional in helping get my order together. That seems to be the only positive thing I can say. The Assorted Sashimi Salad was not great. The fish was low grade in quality or has been frozen & thawed too many times. I can immediately smell and taste the difference. Also, the restaurant gave off this very stale smell when you came in. I won't be returning.
