Good food, great staff. Highly recommend, the prices were also cost efficient. Who doesn’t love a nice Saturday lunch happy hour?
Sushi for 2 platter is good for when your husband had already filled up on chicken shawarma at Oasis
Very nice back room, light and pretty. Friendly service, food was good and dessert was great! A little pricey, but a nice experience.
Came here for quick bite. Food came out fast and was fresh, delicious and hot. I had edamame, miso soup and eal avocado roll. Very yammy. It was not too crowded on a Monday night. But i was alone and sat at the bar. Sever was very friendly. Atmosphere also was very relaxing. Which made my crazy monday much more calm. I wish i had this type of place in my neighborhood.
Delivery order: the spicy mango salad is falsely advertised. In the item I ordered there were about 3-5 thin slices of mango and all the rest was cheap cabbage- I do t appreciate being ripped off. Also, the sauce was sweet, not spicy.
I often use it for lunch. So I decided to order a bento box as usual, but it was only lunch time. So I ordered the pork cutlet. I was very surprised. The tonkatsu was very thin. I felt this thinness was a bit expensive for this price. But the staff was so friendly and nice.
We gave this place a try and we did not regret it. All the other sushi restaurants in Williamsburgs are either hard to reserve, very expensive, require $50-75 no show fee deposit or closed on Mondays. We reserved for 7:30pm on a Monday night and upon arriving there were plenty of seats. The host asked us if we would like to sit in the back outdoor area and we said yes. It is beautifully decorated in the back, with lights, a mural, but you will be hearing the zapping of mosquitos and getting a few bites! We ordered a tray of sushi to share, some speciality rolls, an udon dish, gyu-don rice dish, and purple yam fried and karage. The appetizers came promptly and they were so good, the chicken was hot and fresh and came with sauce and a dipping salt. The purple yam fries were very interesting and I think it came with a matcha sauce. These two appetizers are really good and a must try. The sushi came and it was the typical rolls, not the best sushi quality but that is okay because it was still good and presentable, and this isn’t a $$$$ type of restaurant. The udon was good and so was the gyu-don beef over rice. We also ordered beers and cocktails which were good. Our party enjoyed our time here, it was quiet, soft, ambient, the food was good, and it is a great place to catch up with friends over a meal.
We stopped here for lunch with a time crunch - the service was swift, food was delicious, and we made it out in 45min which was amazing. The most beef negimaki I've ever been served. The back area has greenhouse vibes and it was a very nice ambiance. We would love to return and be able to enjoy it without any time constraints.

Edit: We've returned a few more times and it is definitely a favorite in the area. Service is always great!
