   Absolutely delicious and fresh sushi! Hit the spot after a long day at the museums. Everything was presented absolutely beautifully. Maybe next time they'll be allowed to serve sake. :)

   Tried this place out last Friday before a show across the street at The Parkway. Bagu could easily get a five star rating from me by addressing a couple things, but is a solid 4+ as is. The good: the food is FANTASTIC. Every single thing we ordered was delicious and carefully prepared, and a couple things were simply transcendent. The rolls we had were the Mama, Shinjuku, Curry and the glorious Fuji. We also had very good pork egg rolls and fresh spring rolls as a starter. Our server was attentive and friendly, even though the place was packed and turning people away. Prices are a bit high, as they are everywhere in 2024, but the food I got was definitely worth what I paid, which has NOT been the case in too many recent dining experiences elsewhere. The less-good: While they've made a laudable effort with the decor and furnishings, the space itself is...quirky. Definitely a bit cramped, even in the front/main seating area. The corridor shared by the kitchen entrance and bathroom entrances, which also houses the hand washing sink, feels rather perilous. Also disappointing was the beverage selection; they are temporarily unable to serve alcohol, which is unfortunate but understandable, but they also had very minimal non-alcoholic offerings. Tea, water or sparkling water seemed to be the only choices available. The sparse beverage selection seems eminently fixable, though, and the space is functional if overly cozy. Bottom line: honestly, I'd stand at a counter outside in the rain just to eat those rolls again. As it was, my wife and I had a lovely meal here on our night out. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area.

   We loved it and were on time for our concert across the street. Will return to try the Thai food soon - thank you!

   It took long for the server to order our food. Also, food and drinks came out slow. The server wasn't really pleasant. We had to ask another server for things, which I appreciate her and she was patient with us as she was also serving others. We didn't get our last order, which was fine because we were already full. Otherwise, the food was great and delish!

   INCREDIBLE food! So incredible that we went there 2 nights in a row while visiting our daughter. Over the course of the two nights we enjoyed Drunken Noodles with Chicken (twice - it was that good), sashimi, the best miso soup I have ever tasted, vegetable egg rolls that were super delicious, laab, green curry with tofu and red curry with tofu. Absolutely outstanding service - they make you feel like you've known the servers for years, and the food is incredible. Would give this restaurant 6 stars if I could!

   A reservation puts you in the front room with visibility of the front windows and the sushi bar. This restaurant has a small footprint, so I recommend a reservation. The food? We went entirely with sushi, and it was the best sushi I've had since pre-covid. For an appetizer, try the JBB. We loved it. All glasses of wine were $9 or less. We plan to go back! (This was our first visit.)

   Best Japanese and Thai food in MN! The owner treats his clients like friends and apart from the food, you'll return for the amazing experience all his staff provides!

   Excellent service from kind and friendly staff, delicious food in large portions, reasonable pricing and great value for the money. We love it here and always order the hamachi kama, dinner salads, ahi poke, and several sushi rolls. The food is always perfect and the happy hour menu has a lot of our favorites to choose from. 10/10 recommend
