Lunch special

fresh fish. Very good. Great price. Will definitely be coming back! Great experience. Definitely recommend.

Seating

Oishi (Japanese word) translates to tasty or delicious in English. Unfortunately, the sushi I had here wasn't that good... I've had a lot of raw fish in my life and this just doesn't compare. I had a sushi craving on a Friday night, so I decided to try out a new spot. What drew me in was their all day roll special. You can either get any 2 rolls for $10.50 or any 3 for $14.50 with a choice of complimentary miso soup, salad, or Spring water. You can only choose from classic rolls, not the specialty ones. I called to place a pick-up order for the 3 Roll Special. It was ready within 10 minutes, which is more than reasonable. My problem with this sushi is that it lacked flavor. Did they even marinate the rice?! Was the fish fresh? Probably not... I typically avoid rolls that go overboard with sauces because I like to TASTE THE FISH AND RICE. I don't even use soy sauce. In this case, I WISHED there were sauce(s) on it so I could actually taste something... My order: *Shrimp Tempura - Why was there lettuce in this roll? Very odd. The tempura batter was crispy and flaky, so I'll give them that. But the shrimp itself wasn't tender or juicy. They really needed to throw some eel sauce on this. *Spicy Salmon - One of the most tasteless spicy salmon I've had. There was absolutely no spice factor. The salmon was mushy and had no flavor. I didn't like that they put avocado in it either... *Philadelphia Roll - This was the best one out of the three. The salmon was smoky and paired well with the cream cheese. A below average meal. But there are some pros. The service was friendly and quick. From standing outside of the restaurant, I didn't expect much in terms of ambiance. There's 4-5 parking spots next to it, as well as street parking nearby. When I walked in, I was pleasantly surprised at how bright, clean, and modern it was. There's booth seating that wraps around the entire interior, tables in the center, and a sushi bar. I'm really big on first impressions, so I'm not sure if I'd return to try again.

Beef Teriyaki Dinner Box

We were advised to seat ourselves at an empty table, but unfortunately, another party that came in after us was served first, which set the tone for a slightly disorganized experience. My partner and friend ordered the teriyaki dinner boxes, and we shared a few rolls. I had a cool tea and my partner got a Diet Coke. The food overall was fine, but nothing stood out in terms of flavor. The teriyaki beef, in particular, was a big letdown--tough and lacking in taste. I'm not completely opposed to coming back, but it's not at the top of my list. There's potential here, but the experience left a lot to be desired.

I have ordered here in the past and found it to be the best sushi around so naturally I ordered from here. I went for a house special and a mango madness roll however when it was delivered, the mango madness was not what I ordered. I didn't care for it and I let them know and they were kind to credit me for that roll. I will just chalk it up to an off day in the kitchen.

Love the new location and super happy with the sushi. The fish was fresh and the ratio of rice and sushi was perfection. So happy to have ordered from here and the price was reasonable. The service was pretty fast.

Sushi for Two
Ashley C.

The sushi is very delicious and fresh. Don't skip out on the white tuna truffle appetizer, the flavor bomb in your mouth will thank you! The menu is pretty standard with a few additional specialty items that you don't find at every Japanese restaurant including toro sushi, one of my all time favorites. The service is wonderful. We were taken care of by two very nice servers who maintained our green tea refills and kept our table clean. A solid option for Japanese and sushi in the area. They also offer a great lunch special which extends to 4pm during the week. I have been here several times and would keep returning. Thank you

Inside seating

Came here to pick up some takeout, very efficient with the order, they had a nice lunch set for chicken teriyaki (You can actually choose between chicken, salmon and other main teriyaki types) , in a bento box with a couple pieces of shumai dumplings, veggies, rice and a small six piece roll of your choice, we had the eel avocado which was quite nice. Miso soup or salad, the soup was very good and not too salty. I also tried the Tokyo Chicken which is a semi fried chicken without a heavy coating of batter, was ok, probably better when it's fresh and hot. For $12, definitely a good deal and will be back for lunch soon!

The place is pretty tiny. Probably not the best for groups. I imagine it could get packed quickly…read more Overall I liked the vibe. Kind of cool seeing the chef tending to the grill. My dining partner and I were seated rather quickly. Our server took our drink orders and came back promptly so we could order our food. The menu is pretty extensive but we ordered an assortment of skewers and a bowl of ramen to share. The skewers came out little by little; about 3 skewers per plate. They didn't come all at once so I assume they bring them out as they finish getting grilled. The chicken heart was some of the best I've ever had. I'm not sure if it's the way it was sliced, the seasoning, or just everything about it but I wish we ordered more. The tail skewer was another standout. It had so much crunch that it was almost like it was fried. The flavors were rich and varied. Each skewer cost upwards of $4 so that's a bummer. Unfortunately the ramen wasn't so great. Not terrible, but not great either. Especially not great for $19. Not my first choice for ramen. Is it the most bang for your buck? Certainly not. But I did enjoy my meal and in the end, that's what matters.

I really wanted to like this place because they seemed to authentic Japanese yakitori and attract a…read morelot of Japanese/ asian customers, but overall it was a disappointing experience. The dining area is in rough shape -- cracked wood, dusty interior, and a generally run-down vibe that makes it feel borderline dirty rather than "casual." Service was also frustrating. Our servers couldn't answer basic questions about the menu, which is already hard to follow if you're not familiar with Japanese terms. It left us feeling lost rather than guided. On top of that, the pricing is steep for the suburbs -- $5-$8 per skewer adds up really quickly, and it just didn't feel worth it given the atmosphere and service. All the yakitori was decent but nothing mind blowing, smaller servings and overly salty. To make matters worse, the tap water was awful -- honestly undrinkable. Look at my picture I'm shocked they thought this was acceptable to bring to our table. The food itself may be authentic, but everything else about the experience dragged it down. Unfortunately, not somewhere I'd come back to.
