    Exceptional omakase experience. Our 4th trip and so grateful to have this gem in neighborhood and affordable. For now: BYO drinks. There is always something new to try and the chef is masterful in preparing the fish. The rice is key, and we can only name 2 places that have the best rice. (The other place has a Michelin star). We love omakase where the fish is the centerpiece and this place doesn't disappoint.
