    Crab inari
    Matthew W.

    My daughter and I had lunch here a little while back. Let me start by saying the staff are amazingly friendly. I felt like someone was personally making sushi for me. We had the crispy shrimp roll, spicy salmon roll, and the crispy crab inari. This is honestly some of the best sushi I've had in the area. My favorite by far was the inari, and this is from someone who normally doesn't eat tofu. It is a must try. The price point is good, and again, the service is excellent. I will definitely be back.

    The best sushi place

    The best sushi and the best owner!!! I go here everytime for sushi!!!always a clean and happy environment

    a variety of sushi

    This is a new sushi place in a former Subway sandwich shop. They make the sushi fresh while you wait. Rolls come with ten pieces, so it only takes couple to fill you up. They stick to the most "common" types of rolls. I'm sure this helps in keeping costs down. We had a tempura shrimp roll and a Philly roll. Both were well made.

    Great! Service was nice, food was made fresh. Tasted great and fresh. Room to sit in and eat, had good music.

    Mango bubble tea

    This place is AMAZING. I was in Geneva and looking for some restaurants and came across a Tiktok of the owners nephew recommending it and the nigiri looked so good we had to make a stop. The owner was so nice and recommended bubble tea which wasn't in the menu. We got mango and I love any boba that bursts in your mouth 10/10 chugged it. The salmon was amazing too so fresh so great. Love this quick concept utilizing an old subway location and it makes sense. You need to grab this place even if it's just a quick to go order. I honestly ate this all on my ride home.

    This is a welcome option for sushi in the Tri-Cities area. Since our beloved nearby place closed we have been trying all the sushi restaurants but not finding a favorite. We were happy to order from this new business run by a local family. They were friendly on the phone and in person. They answered right away and the order was made quickly. They told us how they make everything fresh everyday and stressed the importance of that, which we appreciate! The rolls definitely hit the spot! We will definitely be back to try more!

We went for Happy Hour and were seated at the bar because all of the tables were apparently reserved. We were greeted by Adam who was the only server in the bar. For Happy Hour they have a few drink specials and all Small Plates are half off. We asked about GF options and he was not too helpful but we made it work. My wife started with a Ginger Pina Martini with grilled pineapple infused vodka. She loved it ,I thought it was too sour.

The duck bao buns came two per order and had a sauce to melt the flavor of the duck in your mouth. The shishido peppers came with a sauce that was creamy and complimentary. They have sushi boats that come with four rolls, but I opted to eat three. All of our selection of rolls was pretty and filling. Some ordered hot plates and the portions were grand and they were delicious. We went for a birthday and ordered two desserts. The ube cheesecake didn't have the blueberries on there, as the photos suggested it would, but still tasted great. The chocolate peanut butter cake was also good, but wasn't considered a favorite. Our server Ayden was helpful and got our food out quickly. His service was pretty good and he was friendly. This was lively for a night that was -10 Fahrenheit! It was so busy, so that tells you it's a great restaurant, and I agree.

I came in tonight and the girl was sitting beneath the counter, I didn't even see her until I walked in and she stood up from her seat behind the rice pot. She may have been taking a nap? She seemed bothered that I walked in. I ordered two build your own bowls with white sushi rice. She filled the first to the brim, had to squeeze the lid onto the top. Very skimpy on the sauce, she was using it like an eye dropper to make sure not to fully squeeze the bottle for some reason. Then the second bowl had almost all the same ingredients of the first bowl, but she only filled halfway. She started to put the lid on and I stopped her, I wasn't happy she only gave me half the amount of food as the first bowl, I told her to just top it off with lettuce. She slowly placed leaf by leaf into the bowl until it filled up, did not add anymore sauce or dressing so the salad on top was dry. Not sure if she was high or stoned or just moving in slow motion, but she definitely made the whole experience unpleasant. No apology, no explanation, not even any eye contact. No tip either. I'll tip when the service is good
