It's a Saturday and husband was ready for sushi. I had another place in mind, but they didn't take…read morereservations and we're not about to chance it and wait. So we found this place and it was in the same vicinity and yay, they took reservations. Made reservations same day for a 18:30 seating. Service is impeccable. We were welcomed with hot towels, and this impressed me: when our server asked if we wanted cold or hot water. Love it! We opted for hot, better for digestion :) Our libation: Kubota sake - semi dry, rich, clean Our dishes: Assorted sashimi (16 pcs) - omakase. No soy sauce needed. Chef prepared with delicious flavors in mind. Tiger scallops - served in a what appears to resemble petrified wood, carved into a long boatlike dish. Hokkaido shrimp, cilantro oil, chilaquita (Peruvian onion relish), sweet potato crisp, smoke aji Amarillo (Peruvian yellow chili) Leche de tigre (rich emulsion of limes, Peruvian spices and chilis) - A complexity of flavors that comes together so completely. Eat with spoon. The delicate potato crisp finishes the bite with a little crunch. Udon picante - bell peppers, quinoa and 2 jumbo shrimp. Love the heat level. Comfort food at its best. Salmon parmesan - Nikkei sushi - seared salmon, parmesan bitter, eel sauce , arare, lime. Amazing. O toro sushi - the fattiest cut of tuna. Eat as is. Again chef prepared. No added seasoning required. Parri maki - fried shrimp, cream cheese, seared tuna topped with chimichurri, aji amarillo, chalaquita, ponzu. Food experience was enhanced by their impeccable taste in music. Super chill, soft beats stream the restaurant. With its perfect lighting too sets all the good moods for us. Don't wait for this fine dining experience of Japanese and Peruvian fusion. Note: when they ask if you want soy sauce, say No, thank you. It would be a shame to kill the taste of a beautiful dish with any added sauce. Kampai! Salud!

Overall, an amazing dining experience! The fusion of two cultures is executed…read morebeautifully--combinations you wouldn't expect somehow come together perfectly. The fish quite literally melts in your mouth, and every dish is top-notch, from flavor to presentation. The staff is wonderful--so polite and attentive, taking the time to explain each dish and what it entails. The chef is incredibly kind, and you can truly feel the passion and care he puts into every plate. I highly recommend sitting at the bar for the full experience, where you can interact directly with the chef. We've been here twice now, revisiting a few favorites and trying some new dishes the second time, and everything has been consistently outstanding. The cebiche is an absolute must-try, and you can't go wrong with anything in the Nikkei section--we've tried most of them, and every single one delivers. Would 1000000x recommend coming here for any occasion.

The sushi was incredibly fresh, beautifully prepared, and served warm and timely--exactly how you want it when you're craving something satisfying. Every dish came out with consistent quality, and you can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they serve. Our waiter was truly exceptional. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling overbearing. They checked in at the perfect moments, made great recommendations, and kept everything flowing smoothly. It really elevated the whole dining experience. Overall, delicious food, great service, and a place I'd happily come back to. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable sushi spot.

Pretty lame atmosphere for a place in Fullerton on a major street corner near Downtown Fullerton. Place was pretty empty too. The food was not very tasty, and this is coming from someone who is not a tough food critic. Also, how does a SUSHI spot not give ginger and wasabi!? Why are you making customers ask for ginger????? In my 20+ years of eating sushi, I've never had a restaurant not give me ginger with a sushi roll. And whatever, ok sure, I'll politely ask for some. I ask for some and your server brings out 2-3 tiny pieces of ginger for the 5 rolls we had at the table. Absolutely ridiculous.

I always order and love the fish and chips because it has all kinds of fish on the wonton chips rather than just tuna. But I feel $20 is a little high.

Disappointed, I asked for their closest option and was recommended the 8pc chef's choice sushi. What I got were two pieces each of the standard tuna, salmon, etc. I guess the chef's choice today was their cheapest, most common fish. It's sad to consider that they're using their omakase option to lure customers in during the slow days of the week. This limited availability wasn't on their website hosted menu.
