"Let's start with the atmosphere. Shima is a small gem tucked away off a main street, and it's only open in the evenings, which adds to its mystique. Inside, you'll find a stunning modern design with a dark theme, featuring influences from various cultures while still maintaining a distinctly Japanese vibe.
The highlight for me was Taka, the executive chef. He is incredibly friendly and kind without being intrusive. Yes, things may take a little time at Shima, but good food deserves patience, and the wait is quite comfortable in my opinion.
Over the past two years, I've tried a wide variety of sushi, and Shima remains the best. I can't even begin to describe the perfection of the flavors—just go and try everything! You won’t regret it.
I've also delved into their Hawaiian menu, although I haven't explored it as much. It has a warm, comforting quality, reminiscent of home-cooked mac and cheese, and is definitely worth trying as well."
