Small portion but very nice quality for the price. All sushi dishes on the rail are the same price which is really good imo.
I had the karaage udon and SO had the teriyaki chicken rice bowl. Both small - yet it was enough to get us almost full. Udon broth was light and heart-warming. Chicken karaage is very soft, juicy and crunchy - as how it should be. Too often I’ve tried karaage here that taste like rubber, or pieces of fried flour...
Teriyaki chicken rice bowl was very filling. The sauce was just right - not too sweet nor too salty. Perfect with rice.
We only tried a few sushi dishes because the udon and rice bowl already got us half full tbh. I was skeptical at first but everything was surprisingly good. Salmon with cream cheese was unexpectedly good - a bit too much cream cheese for me but probably just my taste.

While they may not have the widest selection, they excel at what they offer, and at that price point, it's hard to find any room for complaints.
One standout feature is the free, fresh wasabi, ginger, and mayo available on the conveyor belt – a rarity at most places. This is my go-to spot for lunchtime cravings. As it is a humble establishment, finding a seat during lunchtime rush can be a bit of a challenge occasionally, unless you arrive promptly. However, I see this as a testament to its popularity.
