  I arrived with a party of 9 at 5:00 pm. After about 20 minutes we had just received our drinks and management asked us to move to another table to accommodate another party with greater privacy needs, which was a hassle. We did not receive entrees for 75 minutes, and it took another 15 minutes to deliver the last entree. 90 minutes to get an entree. By that time our group needed to leave, so I did not eat my entree. It took another 15 minutes to pay the bill. There were no apologies, no offers of discounts other than they removed the one entree we didn’t eat, but that was only because we demanded it be removed. There was a total lack of acknowledgement that the service was exceptionally slow. The party we moved for didn’t arrive until 6:30. If they had delivered the food in a reasonable time frame, it would not have been an issue for us to have remained at our original table. It was an incredibly annoying and frustrating and dining experience. The management should be ashamed of themselves. If you want to be in the hospitality business, you should act like it and treat your paying customers as guests, not as a nuisance to be ignored and dealt with only when required.

  Damn fine sushi. Definitely the best I’ve had in the area. Fish is fresh and flavors are excellent. The place can run on the expensive side, but well worth it for top-notch sushi.

  This is the best place in Columbus for fresh sushi, hands down! Growing up in a coastal region sets the standard high, but these guys well exceed expectations. Try them, you won’t be disappointed!

  The sushi and sashimi are the freshest we’ve ever had in Ohio. It was relatively pretty expensive but well worth every cent! Besides the super high quality ingredients the presentation was top notch and sevrice was simply excellent. Quick, efficient and friendly! Of less importance is the decor and ambiance which are just fine on their own merits. Warm inviting atmosphere, well lit and CLEAN. This is a bit over 100 mile drive one way for us but we’ll definitely be back here next time we are in the area.

  I love this place! It’s great for lunch or dinner. For lunch I usually order the Chirashi with tempura shrimp udon. It’s a lunch special at a reasonable price. Chirashi is a bowl of thinly sliced fish and other colorful accompaniments such as salmon roe, fish cake and tomago served over seasoned rice. Traditionally served at special occasions and festive events, this dish is simply excellent any time. With it came a hot bowl of udon soup with shrimp tempura. Also great. My wife had the lunch box special which changes daily. She really enjoyed it. If you’re in for dinner, be sure to try the Hamachi Kama. It’s yellowtail collar grilled until the skin is super crispy and the meat inside is just cooked. I’m telling you folks, it’s the best part of the fish! The meat is very succulent and juicy and the skin is crispy and charred. I love it! Go try this place. You won’t be disappointed.

  Went here the other day, and it was a great spot. Awesome sushi, definitely some of the best I’ve tried in Columbus. Also got the komo soba, it was very flavorful. Everything was priced well, and I will be returning very soon!
