"It was my birthday and this place was the closest restaurant to our house and my first choice was closed on Mondays. Yelp reviews looked ok. For the prices on the menu, twenty-ish dollars a roll, I was expecting a good to possibly very good Japanese food experience. Unfortunately I was very disappointed. My wife ordered the salmon dinner entree platter with the fried chicken and mixed tempura. The rice was not fresh, it tasted like it had been in the keep warm mode of the rice cooker for longer than a day and had a funny smell and was slightly yellow. We also ordered a couple appetizers like fried calamari and agadashi tofu. Terrible. The calamari was small and leathery, like clam strips you get at bad seafood restaurants. Pretty sure it was pre-made frozen calamari they bought from a restaurant supplier. The agadashi tofu was over-coated with potato starch, so it had a thick gummy coating covering low quality firm style tofu. The waiter recommended a number of their signature dishes sashimi, dressed with sauce, and things like fried onions and another dish had sliced Serrano peppers. They were ok, the quality of the fish was good. The sauce was a little over powering. Finally we had several orders of nigiri sushi toro, salmon belly, yellow tail. Again, fish quality was good, but wow, the rice was bad. It was cooked too dry and wasn 't really seasoned. I would have been disappointed in this place if it was a $35 all you can eat place. The quality of food is so out of line with the prices they charge, I feel a little taken advantage of. The only thing keeping me from a 1 star review is the quality of fish and our waiter was very friendly. Don 't recommend. I would not come back."
