Visited twice within 2 weeks. Tried a few combos, overall food ingredients were nice & fresh. Horenso Gomaae, Unagi Don, Spicy Tuna Sashimi, Assorted Nigiri, Assorted Rolls.... all were very tasty. Miso soup was good at the first visit. It was too salty at the second time (a bit disappointed). There was quite a strong fishy smell when we stepped in the restaurant (the ventilation wasn't very good). Windows were not very clean. There were flies flying around that really annoyed us.

I still don't know why people cook their salmon in the BC roll, this honestly takes away from the whole experience of a BC roll. The Big Bang roll, not too sure why had a sour element to it. The rice over all was a bit on the undercooked side, as you could tell there was a bite to the rice. Overall, I don't think I'll be back to the restaurant, it was both a bit pricey and...
