The aesthetic, the decor, and the location of this...

The aesthetic, the decor, and the location of this restaurant are all great. Street parking was fairly easy to find right outside, and the service was prompt and attentive despite being busy. Now for the food, we ordered crispy rice + spicy tuna appetizer, Kobe, Stardust, and the chef's selection 7 pc nigiri.

The appetizer and Kobe roll were definitely my favorite. The crispy rice + spicy tuna is different yet so satisfying for an appetizer (plus we went during happy hour for half off!) The Kobe was flavorful and fulfilling. Stardust was a good, but a pretty standard tasting tangy roll that didn't wow me. For being on the pricier side and well-known for their nigiri, I was underwhelmed. The salmon and tuna were great and I enjoyed the texture, but the other pieces were not up to par. Hopefully I can try a few other items that will make me change my mind. I would definitely come back for the appetizer and Kobe roll, and try some other popular rolls!
