    Double Pleasure Roll
    Michelle S.

    The sushi was super delicious !!! We also got their fried rice and gyozas. The vibe in the place was perfect

    Wasabi fries
    Kelly W.

    Small hole in the wall decor with a limited number of tables. We were greeted the second we walked in and was able to secure a table. The food took some time to arrive, but once the first plate came the rest came out in fast fashion. Wasabi fries were crispy but there wasn't enough of the sauce in the fries in our opinion since it was only lightly drizzled on top. Once you eat the too of the fries, the bottom didn't have any sauce at all. My favorite was the bacon scallop skewer, it was meaty and the scallop was a decent size for the price. The teardrop roll is SPICY! They weren't kidding about how spicy it is on the menu. I still enjoyed it a lot and the mix of fish in each piece worked well in harmony. Didn't get pictures but we also ordered mapo tofu, which looked more watery than thick, if you prefer it more saucy. It had Szechuan style spiciness to it with the numbing spice. However it didn't come with rice which we had to order separately and is more of an uncommon practice in my opinion, since it's a dish that usually comes with one. Karaage was crispy as well, a good classic. Lastly the buta kimchi was a ok stir fry to have on the side. It came with a fried egg. It wasn't as flavorful as it smelled. Towards the end they didn't seem to check on us and we had to wait awhile to be able to flag any server down to pay for our check. I think it's a decent place to try but overall execution left more to be desired.

    Server recommend these to us but we cannot even have eel sauce, didn't eat it but manager wouldn't take it off!

    0/10 manager miso was good Frisco location is better.... You don't like your food too bad

    I've been to this location multiple times and it has never disappointed! Tuesday and Thursday nigiri deal is the best in DFW that I've found so far and their creamy seafood udon is a must try!

    $1 sushi on Wednesdays! Worth it! Right by hmart! They have a good selection, fast service. Get the squid! So tender & flavorful. The chicken skin was a winner too. Overall, if u want quick and good sushi, especially if you're a roll sushi person, this is the place to go. Worth it

    Buta-kimchi
    Jasmine L.

    First time eating here with some friends. It was an okay experience overall! There's a ton of indoor seating; they have 2 large rooms (one with a sushi bar seating and regular tables, and the other with large tables and games). We ordered the Buta-kimchi and creamy seafood udon. The buta-kimchi had a very strong oniony taste; it wasn't as filling as we had hoped. The creamt seafood udon was very rich (a little too heavy with sauce for my taste). It also didn't have as much seafood as I had hoped, but it was nonetheless a filling entree. The spicy endamame had a lot of flavor and spice! The Sunagimo kara-age was nice and cripsy, and it was accompanied with a tasty sauce. Our group also ordered a variet of rolls ans nigiri. The workers were very nice and friendly. About half of our group ordered sushi, and the other half ordered other dishes that required more cooking time. This discrepancy led to half of the group waiting for their food, and the other half eating. One of my friends had to wait extra long for her dish to come out, but it came out shortly after we had asked. The parking is very easy and plentiful, and the restaurant is located in a quiet shopping complex. Will need to try their sushi next time!

    Salmon and yellowtail
    Michael M.

    Very nice and accommodating staff. The sushi was good and considering there aren't many options around this area, it was a nice find. If you're nearby, stop in and try it!

    Overripe, stringy avocado
    Heather Y.

    I can't believe this place has such a high rating. I ordered a few rolls and an udon soup for takeout. The only thing that we are eating is the udon soup and a scallop roll which are mediocre at best. See my photos for how the avocado roll and ume shiso roll look. The ume shiso roll has no shiso, a tiny bit of ume and a ton of bonito flakes. I've ordered ume shiso rolls a million times - they are my favorite. I've never had an ume shiso roll with bonito flakes let alone THIS much. And the tiny little stem of a shiso leaf is unacceptable. The avocado roll (which was for my 2 year old) has overripe avocado to the point of having hard stringy pieces. How did the sushi chef think this was ok? If I was in the restaurant I would send it back immediately.

    5 Treasure Sashimi Roll Amberjack Sushi
    Joi B.

    Uhmmmm... I don't know what to say other than bring back the other people that used to work there. I walked in the door and a man with a baseball cap and glasses walked passed me comin in to go to the side that was labeled as closed. 4 min later, he asked me if I've been helped. I said no. He said are you picking up? Me: No I'm eating in. Him: How many? Me: 1 He seated me. When he came to ask for my order I said no. He said ok and left. A lady comes a few minutes later to take my order. She looked like I was keeping. The carpaccio was uncomfortably just above room temp imo... It also needed more truffle oil and less salt. The roll was really good. I truly hope someone goes to check on the employees. They didn't seem ok tonight

For the nigiri I had the fatty tuna, a5 wagyu, and king salmon. They were all absolutely delicious and warped me to Japan.

I checked in at 7:35 for my 7:45 reservation, we weren't seated until 8:10. The hostess was apologetic about the wait. The restaurant itself is in a basement and it's a typical quaint chef's experience with about 10 seats in an intimate space. I loved the decor and vibe. The staff was very friendly, they all introduced themselves and walked us through how the omakase experience worked. We had a 17 course tasting menu and I enjoyed every bite. Loved that the chefs explained every dish and gave us the origin of the fish. My favorite was the Kanpachi, but everything was delicious and tasted fresh. I had a yummy mocktail and our "spirit guide" let me try a non alcoholic champagne which I loved. After dinner we were led into Ginger's which is a speakeasy next door that I've been to a few times. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The only thing I would change is the number of seats. I felt cramped.
