    Large Patio.

    This is my go-to for sushi lunch on a nice day. Consistent quality, very fast service, and good location.  

    Not high end sushi, but excellent value.

    Ooh, did I mention it's sushi with a patio?

    We found a dead worm in our salmon. The manager lady said it wasn't a worm, but one of us was a marine biologist who was certain.
    Clearly not fresh..
    The manager didn't charge us for the food and offered other food, which is why they get 2 stars.

    Gross.  That would probably be a good description of their sushi rice.  Which ruins everything else.  Am pretty sure a real Japanese sushi chef would discard their rice.  And send the sushi chef back for five more years of training.  Completely overcooked.  Mushy.  Didn't detect any rice vinegar either.  Gross.
    Don't care - That would describe the wait staff.  You ask for something like, water.  They just ignore you.  I'd give this place negative stars.  Totally devoid of customer care.  One of our party dropped a chop stick.  Wait staff turned a blind eye.  Didn't volunteer new chop sticks. Don't sense any pride at all.  In any of the staff.  They all exuded this "I don't want to be here" attitude.  We were in a rush, and requested speedier service.  With only two other tables, it took them forever to bring the gross sushi and rolls.  It's a shame.  Likes the location.  Will not return.

    I stopped by here on a whim, I know I won't be back.

    The food had a distinct taste of not-so-fresh fish, I was concerned I would have a problem later. The food was also bland as all get out.

    The service is surly, and because of that the entire establishment feels unpleasant.

    The bathroom is pretty bad. It is not too dirty, but the small details make it kind of repulsive. There was a long black hair on the sink, the toilet seat was smaller than the toilet, there were three chairs stacked right next to the toilet. There was dust on all horizontal surfaces. Eek.

    Wanted to eat sushi for lunch
    Pictures looked really good
    Ordered bento box C
    It looked like Japanese food, but it did not taste like Japanese food
    Save your money
    There are better places to eat
    Will not be back
