"My friend suggested we try Sono Bana after debating where to have our dinner reunion. It was my first visit, and it turned out to be a memorable experience. The waitstaff was incredibly respectful and attentive. I ordered the sushi set, which included a seaweed salad, two rolls, and seven pieces of sushi/sashimi, while my friends chose the dinner box special. The sushi was very fresh, and the presentation was excellent. The only downside was the limited parking, but overall, it’s a fantastic spot for sushi. I’ll definitely be returning—next time, with the guys, of course!"

KAT
My family's favorite sushi spot for nearly 20 years. It's always quality sushi at a really affordable price. All the special rolls are delicious but the eel tempura and spider tempura rolls are my fave!

I went there for dinner and ordered the set meals. The prices were reasonable considering the portion sizes, and the food was quite delicious. The restaurant was small but very clean. The staff were attentive and friendly. It’s a great choice for a date night. View menu
Hyunchul
The prices are very reasonable, and the portions of sushi are quite generous and tasty. I particularly enjoyed the volcano roll and the various types of tuna. The atmosphere is calm and friendly. It's a positive indication when you see Japanese patrons dining at a Japanese restaurant.
Sarah
I regret having to leave a negative review, but my experience was subpar. I ordered a sushi platter, and everything came out soggy and squished, with my tuna definitely not fresh. Fresh fish should hold its shape and not fall apart like that. Additionally, my miso soup had strange fried bits in it, which was quite puzzling. To top it off, my meal took a long time to arrive, which was disappointing considering the mediocre quality of the food.
