    This ghost kitchen was one of best fast sushi spots that I have had in a while. There was really nice labeling on everything. Tempura was extremely good and fresh. I love eggplant and we got one piece. The others were carrot, shrimp, broccoli, and maybe a potato? We ordered three hand rolls and they were all delicious and made to order. The sunomono, cucumber salad, was our free item. It was very simple, just vinegary, could be better. The staff was very quick and friendly. It was easy to order online and pick it up. The ambiance was nonexistent, haha. But hey, the prices reflect that. Good prices for good, simple sushi.

    I absolutely love this place! Matt (owner) is an amazing sushi chef and chef in general! He takes pride in making sure he gives you the best food as in presentation, taste and service! My favorite sushi place hands down. Fish is fresh and delicious my favorite rolls are the torched rolls it has such a unique flavor that I haven't had at any other sushi restaurant! I order from here about once a week and I am extremely picky about my sushi since I'm from Seattle Washington and they are known for having really good fresh sushi and this place is my favorite place I've been to since moving to Sacramento!

    Super quick service and easy to pick up. Matthew, the owner, even texted us to let us know it was ready for pickup which was very nice! For take out food, it's solid. Everything was labeled well. I enjoyed the customizations for the price. The sushi rice was a tad bit undercooked, but if you're looking for a quick lunch break during work, this would be a great place!

    Absolutely INCREDIBLE! Oh my goodness-- everything here has been exceptionally beautiful! I tried the spicy gyozas which was perfectly spiced. The green dragon sushi with brown sauce glaze, crab and shrimp tempura are wonderful. Service was quick and attentive as the young gentleman is very kind and brought out my order after I ringed the bell. Another thing I really appreciated is that they taped their togo bags versus stapling it. I really appreciate that attention to detail as well. I finished my meal and felt satisfied and full. Thank you how we roll for what you do!!!

    I wish I could give more than five stars!! Everything was so beautiful, delicious, and labeled perfectly. Tons of vegetarian and gluten free options (including gluten free tempura!), and each is separately labeled with custom stickers to tell them apart. Everything is very thoughtfully put together and prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality. We will be back and telling everyone we know!

    I'm so obsessed with this place, always made with so much love and fresh salmon! Always makes my day

    Such amazing food!! They have so many gluten free options, the owner is well versed in allergies, so many options to choose from. My husband has celiacs and this was the first time he could eat gluten free tempura. We absolutely love this new spot! It is takeaway only but sushi is super easy to eat anywhere so never an issue! Highly recommend!!

    The spicy vegetarian gyozas were some of the best I've had. I ordered this on DoorDash and they were decently fast, my food was still warm too.

    Ask the Community - How We Roll

    On the website there is a notice about ordering/delivery issues from GrubHub. Has this issue been resolved?

    Unfortunately no, we are more than likely going to not use Grubhub anymore … We brought up this issue multiple times and are being told nothing can be done about it.. but we will remain on Uber Eats and DoorDash

    So there's no indoor seating? What does the outdoor seating area look like? Kid friendly?

    Hello! We do have some picnic benches available outside where you are able to enjoy your meal after picking up, but we do not have an indoor seating area as we are a ghost kitchen and only specialize in takeout, delivery, and pick up orders. Thank…

I also have to give a huge shoutout to Raef, who made our experience even more special! He was the friendliest and most attentive server we've had so far.

I walked inside having no idea that it was going to be a top quality experience. The restaurant was huge and it was packed at 5 PM. We couldn't get a table so we sat at the sushi bar, and there was plenty of room there. Plus watching all of the chefs put together the Omakase offerings was really cool. We opted for the Japanese cauliflower curried soup, the black cod special, the king Roll, the watermelon and mint salad and the shrimp and corn dumpling. Every single dish was FIRE!!! The flavors were delicate and nuanced and perfectly balanced. Even the frisée lettuce on the watermelon and mint salad was a flavor explosion. We found ourselves drinking the sauce out of the bowl from the shrimp and corn dumpling. The croutons in the curried cauliflower soup were crispy on the outside and buttery on the inside. The black cod was the texture of a scallop and the squash purée set it off just right. The king Roll was a marvel to see and absolutely a delight to eat. I loved that little hint of lemon that accented the crab and lobster flavors. 1000% recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys really damn good food. Craziest part of the meal was the cost, it was incredibly reasonably priced, not overpriced, like most restaurants of this caliber. We will definitely be back. Thank you Kru for making my special occasion even more special!

It wasn't just fish on rice It was sushi and rice with some seaweed and crushed sweet root Ultimate test was the sake and Uni I hate cold sake. It was nice and hot. Warmed my hands like you'd want after walking in from a cold walk in the snow. The Uni tasted like I'd been walking in my boots on Kodiak Island and picked up a sea urchin to dig out the eggs and ate it on the spot Uni was from Japan, but it tasted as fresh as I've ever had while walking a beach in hip boots. I wish I lived in Sacramento. I would be here regularly. It's sad. I'll probably only get here once a year. Bonus! I read the history of the restaurant And it warms my heart to know that I patronized a place that has a history of personal sacrifice and Toil to make a wonderful place for people to congregate and enjoy a fantastic meal Again, I appreciate it that is less American and more Japanese at the bar Thank you.

Pepperfin, Black and White, BBQ Albacore Mix, Salmon/Hamachi Aburi Style. Prices have skyrocketed unfortunately but most places have.

The service complements the food perfectly: professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming.

Found this place on Yelp and since I haven't had sushi in a bit, this was the perfect pick. Pulled up and parked (which was pretty easy), the lot is small-ish maybe 20 spots or so. But today wasn't busy at all. We got in and sat at the bar. The AC was on blast which was lovely because outside was 100 degrees. There was 2 other tables, so it wasn't busy at all. It was happy hour which gave us $5 drafts and $2 Kumamoto oysters (6 piece minimum). The dry aged fish was on the specials board as well. Ordered: 6 oysters, dry aged tuna and dry aged salmon nigiri, Rainbow roll and Shima Aji Sashimi. Got the dry aged pieces first. Passed the smell test, no fishy smell at all. Bites were clean and tender. The salmon even had a bit of smokiness on it. Would definitely order again. Oysters and rainbow roll were also really good, solid all around. Asked the chef for a recommendation and he advised to try the Shima Aji (another board special). This go around we got this as sashimi. Another fresh and clean fish. Mild flavor with slight sweetness. We ordered pretty much everything through the chefs behind the bar and the service was solid. Needless to say this is a place I would come back to.
