I visited tonight around 8:30 PM and it wasn't busy. The food was really good. I would have loved to have some plum wine, but there was no alcohol available. Overall, I would rate the food a 5 out of 5.

This restaurant offers the finest Asian cuisine in the suburbs! The food is consistently excellent, served promptly, and accompanied by exceptional service. Even after moving away, I still make the drive just to enjoy a meal here! Food rating: 5/5.

The food was decent, but my experience was soured when I received the check. The total came to about $75.13, but when I handed the waitress my credit card, the charge went up to $86.85. The additional $11.72 was a service charge that I wasn't informed about, which I suspect was applied because I used a credit card. It seems like they apply that fee as a tip for the waitress, but I believe customers should be made aware of extra charges. I won’t be returning. On a positive note, parking was ample.

I'm disappointed to be writing this review as a returning customer. I used to really enjoy the sushi here, but after my visit today, I found that it was definitely not fresh—especially the salmon and tuna. When it comes to raw fish, freshness is crucial, and unfortunately, the taste was quite fishy and old. I hope to update this review more positively once my stomach feels better. Food: 1/5

This was my first experience dining at this restaurant. We waited quite a while for our server to greet our table of two and take our order. The server was almost silent during our time there, which made me feel a bit uncomfortable. We waited an hour for our sushi to be ready. While the sushi was fresh and quite tasty, I think I would prefer to order takeout next time rather than dine in.
