“ This has been my favorite restaurant in Columbia City since before I even moved to Seattle! The food is delicious, fish high quality, and the staff are such wonderful people. I’ve been a regular for years now. ”
“ Whenever we are in Seattle, we stop by this cute sushi spot before heading out to the airport! If you haven’t met the sushi chef, you must. He educates you on the different fish they serve, where they come from, and overall he’s such a fun guy to talk to! The quality of the fish is amazing, so I highly recommend ordering their sashimi - it will not disappoint. ”
“ Surprised to see the one star reviews. Our meal was wonderful. Hudson roll was amazing and nigiris are really fresh! Fried chicken was well done, there is room for improvement for the sauce but it is still a good dish. Pricing compare to other places is much more affordable as well. ”
