Ah, a hidden gem in the galaxy, this place is. Astonishing, it is, that but 30 reviews it has, for much greater recognition it deserves. Generous, the value is—truly a deal not to be overlooked.
The "Pick 3" lunch, I chose, for 20.99 credits. Chicken, the Volcano Roll, and the Viva Las Vegas Roll, my selections were. Accompanied, they were, by veggie tempura, miso soup, rice, and salad. Large, the portions were. Satisfying, the flavors—each bite, a journey through the Force itself.
Especially strong with the Force, the rolls were—fresh, vibrant, and masterfully crafted. For those seeking a lighter path, the "Pick 2" option exists, at 17.99 credits—a wise choice for balance, it is.
Recommend it, I do. Visit this...
