Really like the setup and food tastes really good and comfy place going back tonight and will probably go there since there are not many great places in the area.

  • Pros: Great Food, Comfortable Space
  • Cons: Seemed eager to get rid of us when lunch hour was over

In Short
This Japanese restaurant and sushi lounge competes with neighborhood standouts by injecting a bit of mod design into the mix. Colored in dark, deep reds and blacks and pulsating with lounge music, the space features a long sushi bar and cavernous dining room. The menu of "trendy" Japanese and other Eastern nibbles includes an array of innovative rolls, tonkatsu and deep-fried ahi, plus shiso-wrapped spicy tuna "dragon scales."

I would give this place a "Highly Recommended" review. First of all, we had the big eye tuna tataki. It's like.. What a wonderful!!! Their special roll selection is extensive and very fancy. My favorites are Ten, Sexi star and Spicy scallop. Everthing was so delicious.The pure vegitable San-Sai Udong was really tasty. Oh~ wait a minute! the owner was very friendly and so funny ( : p)

Good addition to the sunset. Good space, great sushi..we stat at the bar one time, and towards the back the next. Anassuming atmosphere which is a nice change from some of the pretentious places in the city. This restaurant stays true to its neighborhood. I would reccomend it.

This Korean-style Japanese restaurant opened a mere block away from Koo, one of the better sushi restaurants in the area, perhaps hoping to attract some of Koo's customer overflow. We've eaten there three times, and each time it was significantly worse than the last.

The first time, shortly after it opened in early 2006, the menu was extensive and many of the Korean-interpreted Japanese dishes were quite good. The sushi was nothing to write home about, but was competently sliced and the fish was good. Prices were very fair relative to the portions.

The second time, a month or two later, the menu was scaled back considerably, with one of our favorite dishes from the first time, a tofu salad, no longer on it, and the service was slow in spite of the fact that there were two servers and no more than a half dozen occupied tables. The sushi this time was noticeably sloppier than the first time, with rolls that fell apart easily and too much gristle on the fish, but still fairly priced. The hot dishes we got were all good, including a tasty if not particularly authentic take on okonomiyaki.

The third and last time we went, things just fell apart. Service was abysmally slow. Dishes arrived in seemingly random order: first a cold main course, then all the sushi save one roll, then the hot appetizer. The sushi was terrible: a tempura'd spicy tuna roll was overcooked to the point that the tuna inside was chalky white and dry as bone, and the incredibly rude waitress had the nerve to insult us by saying we should expect it to be cooked since it's tempura. A roll didn't show up at all, and the same waitress acted put-upon when we asked about it. When it did show, the fish was so gristly as to be inedible. We paid the bill and haven't looked back.

Avoid this place like the plague. Given how large it is and the fact that it's always near-empty, it's probably not long for the world, anyhow.

  • Pros: nice interior, some of the cooked entrees are good, sushi is cheap
  • Cons: sushi's poor quality outweighs its cheapness, horrible service
