Our go to family sushi spot. Ample seating, good service, and consistent execution of sushi. They

I have been a regular here for a while and love their food. Sadly, they have recently announced that starting in September, they will only be serving take out orders and there will be no more dining in. I highly recommend the salmon and tuna. read more

First time here. Food is great!! even the sushi chef came to the table and gave us compliment rolls (thanks Chef!) Server didn't even check on us if we need refill the drink / not and we had to walk and ask for extra bowl for the kids. read more

Small restaurant in Duluth, but the food is tasty with a cozy vibe. Service was friendly. I ordered a nigiri/sashimi set and usually it only comes with 1 miso soup, but since I had a friend with me, the waitress brought out another soup for him. After our meal was finished, she also brought out a nice complimentary dessert. Will definitely come back. read more

We came in on Vday without reservation, but within 10 mins we had a table luckily. The service was great. We ordered udon noodles, but there weren't udon or noodles just fish cake with broth. They also gave us a side of complimentary and a complementary dessert. read more

I liked the california roll & K liked the shrimp tempura roll and golden california roll. I liked the salad with ginger dressing and the miso soup, which I actually ate everything in it and it was nice and warm. We ordered the 3 beef gyoza, which were huge and tasted pretty decent. We had the 4 bacon wrapped scallops, which K liked. I discovered I like bean sprouts a lot. We were stuffed when we left. The ambiance is really nice. It smells like fish when you first walk in but you get used to it. And I like that they have a cup of napkins at each table and they clear the used dishes from the table pretty quickly. The service was good here. They need to get the sign updated so people know they're not just an oyster place. read more

My waitress (server) was phenomenal as this was my first time here. It is truly a Japanese resturarnt that was decorated very nicely and intimate for date night. The food.....just okay. I ordered 6 raw oysters (gulf and only 1 kind) Terribly overpriced 20.00 and just the regular oyster....not blue point, little baby Jesus, etc., just GULF!!! Yes, I love oysters!!! I also ordered the bacon wrapped scallops....they were okay, probably cooked too long. As an fyi, it was actually 2 big scallops that were cut in half to make the 4.....(server told me that) Last order was basic shrimp fried rice w/extra egg (2.00) that I was not told it would be extra, but in the back of mind, I figured it would be, BUT my plate did not reflect that extra egg unless they put little to NO egg in it from the jump. The entree came with 4 cooked sides that are all chilled.... Bean Sprouts - Flavor was good Spinach - Flavor was good Potatoe Salad with a Pumpkin puree - Not my grandmother's.... Fried Zuchini Complimentary Dessert - TBH - It was the highlight....simple yogurt (maybe vanilla) w/blueberries & strawberries and a cute little chocolate something...cookie maybe, lol. Just reference the pics.... Amount of food (shrimp fried rice) was A LOT....I took it home to work on the seasoning but they did give a LARGE amount!!!!! Kudos for that.... read more

This is really a hidden gem as other said. It is a sushi restaurant opened by Koreans. I appreciated the ambiance, service and food here. The menu has sashimi, sushi, bibimbap or seafood pancake:) I appreciate the Korean side dishes to compliment my meal. Even the tea pot made me happy! read more

First time but definitely not going to be the last! Variety of menu items to choose from.

The food was amazing!!! If your there try the yummy yummy roll. And the fried rice was ok

I've been here 3 times now and it's been great for the food, ambiance and friendliness! They have a lot on the menu including some Korean dishes. We've tried a few of their 'set' menus which comes with some yummy extras so there's always been more food than we can eat! The fish is very fresh unlike some other (Korean-run) sushi restaurants we've been to. The restaurant is very well decorated and still cozy. This might be my favorite place right now! read more

Extremely disappointed with management and food. The hype about new ownership scares me to imagine how bad it was before this. Seated quickly but managers and staff swearing and yelling at each other the entire time because they couldn't keep track of food leaving the kitchen made it uncomfortable. Add to that multiple staff members blatantly drinking in front of customers. Then to top it off, while singing "shot time", I kid you not, one of the employees slid around multiple times behind the sushi bar as if he was an elementary school student very much enjoying himself during recess. Food was subpar and came out sporadically that no one in our group received it at the same time. The egg custard was nuked too long in a microwave that the plate was so hot that when putting it down employee literally threw it onto the table. Nigiri had fish bones in it and several cuts smelled extremely fishy. Shari (Sushi Rice) had no flavor on one plate and over-seasoned on another. Food temperatures ranged even on the same plate. Same menu orders received different fish without any explanation. If you want mid tier pricing with low quality food and lower quality service, this is your spot. read more

Ambiance was inviting and unique. Food was the highlight; I ordered the Sushi and Sashimi combo and it was good quality fish and superb presentation! I would highly recommend it. It comes with salad, tempura, grilled salmon, delicious Korean soybean soup with clams, and Al-bop & dessert. The only reason I give four stars is because they were short staffed and server was too busy. We didn't receive cloth napkins nor any refills for tea/water. I would definitely come back here. read more

Very nice ambiance and excellent service! We had a nice lunch, they gave us soup, salad, steamed eggs, smoked salmon veggies and desserts that we never ordered! I think the service was spectacular!! I can't give them less than 5 stars! They have a full course meal that cost $100/person, it looked really interesting but we were in the mood for sushi rolls today, however it's definitely a good option for date nights ! Come check it out yourselves! read more

Sadly. Our favorite part of this restaurant cuisine has vacated (cajun seafood) to be replaced by Japanes/Korean sushi. However we had a great meal, I had cod katsu, deep fried perfectly with wavy fries and an assortment of pickled sides. My spouse had chicken bulgogi, perfect steamed rice . The host honored us with little gifts of complimentary savory flan, and then a surprise panko oyster topped with something fish. A nice little morsel of variation! Then came a cute little bite of complimentary dessert: yogurt with berries and a cube of delightful cheesecake! It was wonderful. Thanks for your hospitality! read more

I eat sushi a lot. I lightheartedly consider myself a snob. I've eaten incredible Omakase. I've also eaten hole in the wall places that serve basic rolls. Any level of restaurant can have good sushi. This place, the one time I ate there, was the opposite of good. I can't imagine at its best it's better than 3 star. It was so fishy and horrible. We trashed most of it. Surprisingly, good sushi is tough to find in this part of town. This was just not the oasis I had hoped for. read more

We had never been to Oystra, but we're in the mood for Cajun food and recently heard that the nearby Cajun Cafe had taken up shop in their kitchen. When we arrived we found that the restaurant is really a combination of a New England Seafood Restaurant, A Sushi Restaurant, and a Cajun Restaurant. We were prepared for only one style to really shine, but to our amazement, all three were fantastic. We started with the New England Clam Chowder. It was flavorful and creamy with big chunks of clam and potato. The oysters on the half shell were fresh and briny. Our favorites were the ones from Prince Edward Island. I got to try a little of the Gator Basket and the Shrimp and Fish Basket. Both were excellent. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. The sushi roll was very fresh and artistically arranged. It unfortunately was gone before I could sneak a bite. The poke bowl shared a similar fate, and I got to hear the exclamations of joy as it quickly disappeared. However, I ordered the Crawfish Boil which was as delicious as the ones I have had in the French Quarter. The crawfish, as everything else, was cooked to perfection. It was loaded with Cajun seasoning, but not overpoweringly so. The drawn butter helped temper some of the Cajun spice. The last dish I got to sample was the Blackened Salmon Salad. The salad itself was delicious with spring greens, avocado, and grape tomatoes. Let me preface my next comment by explaining that I love salmon. I often order it when we are out. Dear reader this was one of, if not THE, most perfectly cooked pieces of salmon I have ever had. The seasoning was perfect. The texture was perfect. I was so full but if another had magically appeared I would have devoured it. Of course when we were already on a roll we had to try the dessert. We ordered coffee and bread pudding. At this point you can guess how they turned out. The coffee was fresh, hot and delicious. Definitely better than most restaurant coffee. The bread pudding was amazing. It tasted like cinnamon rolls, cream and heaven. Everyone was so nice and accommodating. The food was delicious. We will most certainly be back soon! read more

Terrible service! Avoid it if you are one person who does NOT want to seat at the bar for a meal and to work on a computer. The restaurant is almost completely empty. The hostess refused to give me a table claiming all the tables are reserved for the upcoming hour. The parking lot is empty. They wish! read more

First time here, only to learn this is really two restaurants in one, Korean seafood and Cajun seafood. As you can see from the pictures, my wife and I both opted for Cajun, and we are glad we did. The salad is awesome in itself, and the salmon was done perfectly. As for the fish and shrimp, both were cooked perfectly and were absolutely delicious. Don't miss the Cajun menu. I overheard they are only open Thursday thru Sunday so save your restaurant night and visit this restaurant!!! read more

This place was such a gem! Found this place by chance when we were looking for a place to eat for our anniversary. When we walked in-- we were greeted with a warm welcome from everyone in sight. The chef/owner really treated us well! You can tell he has passion and pride in his work. The oysters were fresh and juicy, the fishes were fresh with thick cuts, all the sides were delicious... Everything was just perfectly yummy! And it's always better when the service is great too. Ohh-- they also had a robot to bring out the oysters! I already miss the place... Definitely would come back to try everything else! Pictures doesn't do the taste justice.. but I took what I could when I wasn't busy stuffing my face... read more

This place is such a hidden gem! The sushi is always so fresh (my favorite rolls are the baked salmon and rainbow roll). Everyone is always so friendly and provides great customer service.

Great sushi joint! They have WAY more than just sushi; there's a full menu of Korean food too! I ordered Sushi to go and it tasted pretty fresh. I had a mix of sashimi and some rolls. Everything tasted great and at a fair price. This place can get really busy, so go early or order early!! read more

There must be management change due to a few disppointing fact. First over priced. We ordered two sashimi dishes, one of which cost more than $70. On smaller portion, only 3 pieces of assorted sashimi, the server explained it as the dish was for one person. I have never seen any sashimi dish at that price range for one person. The other one we ordered was identitcal with the first one except the tuna, and they are both too soft. Some of the sashimi was even connected - due to reckless knife work. We chose the menu because the dish we wanted on that day was unavailable. We undersood. But the worst was that one of the side dish was not available on that day, and the manager didn't provide alternative. They did offer two more miso soup after our questioning, but really? Overall, overpriced for mediocre sashimi, unskilled food pre, under trained server for potential case of undersupply, failed to meet the customer expectation. Too bad as it was better before. read more

The best place for sashimi or nigiri in Duluth! Every single fish was extremely fresh! The presentation is beautiful as well, and they have the best service out of any restaurants I have been to in this area. However their sushi rolls weren't the greatest... maybe it was just the ones that my group ordered... but they were pretty mediocre. Nonetheless, I can't justify dropping a full star over that as everything else was EXCEPTIONAL! Highly recommended!!! read more

Nice and friendly service. I like the environment and the food here. This is my first time here. We order chef specials.
