A little bit of Japan in the middle of the Financial District. Close to the Stock Exchange building, this sushi spot is SPOT ON!
Food - Super fresh. Decor - Inviting and intimate, perfect for low key dates. Service - Impeccable and attentive.
This duo functioning restaurant has a self service grab & go, as well as a sit down dine in area. I opted to dine in and was seated fairly quickly by a friendly server who handed me a very unique menu that reminds me of the ribbon decor in a Japanese ramen stall they would hang up.
I ordered a set meal: spicy tuna roll with air fried pork dumpling that came with miso soup. The Tuna is sooo fresh! You can tell it was bought and prepared same day. Not heavy on the sauce, which in my opinion shows off the quality of the fish. They want you to taste the freshness rather than hide bad quality sushi under loads of sauces. I respect that. The air fried pork dumpling, wow! I've never seen any other place that cooks with an air fryer, let alone with dumplings. The dumplings were so juicy, tasteful and CRISP. There were bits of glass noodles mixed in too! Usually, crisp dumplings are pan fried and greasy. These were not heavy or oily at all and I much rather all my fried dumplings be made this way from now on. Defin. an interesting spin that works great with their dumplings. Great idea and I highly recommend you to try it for yourself!
Overall, I would come back here again. A hidden gem in the bustling financial district. Great price points considering the amount of food and quality you're getting. They pride themselves on being FRESH and it really does show.
I didn't try the grab and go take out area, but from what I can tell its pretty straight forward and easy to help yourself. Clean and fresh, and I...
Read moreCame here for lunch with a few friends. Came with the idea that we'd sit down and eat together, but the location definitely is limited in it's real estate, with just a handful of tables and chairs, and even then it's a little bit tight. Ordering is generally pretty easy but don't make the same mistake I did and ask for no receipt, that's the only way you'll know what your order number is when they call it! Food is pretty good, especially for a place that I would consider closer to a take out place. Value is really where this place shines though. Their lunch specials are a pretty good deal and give you a good variety with generous portion sizes. I went with their lunch bento box, and was plenty satisfied. I do wish there was a little more variety to choose from sushi roll wise, but they still have a good selection. Definitely also want to come back when it's cooler and try their hot food options to see how those might...
Read moreWe decided to visit this spot for dinner based on its positive Google reviews and the convenience of being close to our hotel. The place is super small but very clean, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The guy who took our order was incredibly kind and helpful, as were the chefs preparing the rolls.
We ordered the sushi and udon set and were able to swap the rice for miso soup, which was a nice option. I chose the beef udon in a regular portion with a spicy kick—it was absolutely delicious. I also added the Premium Yellowtail Kick for an extra charge, which was a good choice.
We enjoyed it so much that we tried to return later to try the famous black tuna roll. Unfortunately, when we arrived at 8:45 (when they should still be open), they told us they were closed.
The decoration is cool!
Overall, great food and service; highly...
