This used to be a neighbor hood favourite. But unfortunate no longer. The signature sushi platter is not as good as it used to be and the service is quite poor now. Such a shame

Food was very good, waitresses weren’t! Waitresses didn’t refill water and didn’t bother to ask if we wanted something else to drink (although water was all we wanted), didn’t remove empty plates, didn’t ask if we wanted dessert and we had to get their attention to pay the bill!

The noise level in the restaurant on this night was worse than we have ever known it to be. One very noisy table were yelling at the top of their voices, we could not hear ourselves. Not fault of restaurant but they could have asked them to keep noise down a little

Loved the new vegetable gyoza. Well done chef. A little more attention to the drinks on the table would be good. My empty beer bottle left on the table for some time. All in alll great dining experience.

The food at this restaurant is excellent! However, the service is very poor and there is not enough staff to cope when the restaurant is full. They also need someone behind the counter to deal with carryout and drinks. Otherwise, very good and a place I would venture back to.
