    I came in kind of late, but even after doing so they happily greeted me. I got a seat at the bar and start looking over the menu. I wind up first, putting in an order of the four assorted sashimi’s, which just made fresh right in front of me period. I felt it was very good, fresh. It had a smooth taste to it. I also put in an order of the spicy octopus, which I felt was good as well. I finally put in an order of the four assorted rolls, which again was made fresher in front of me and was very good. The service the whole time is amazing, I kept on being checked on and seeing if I needed anything, and there was never a lack of service. After I finish eating and paid, by this time they were packing up and getting ready to close, and as I was leaving, they happily say goodbye. Overall, I would recommend this place to a lot of people in the area, as I felt it was very welcoming in a very good restaurant. 9/10
