"The food itself would have got five stars, the serving (the waitresses) however were the slowest I've ever experienced! We went there on a Thursday evening, they were really busy so it took quite a while for us to get seated, around 50 minutes, but it is understandable. The food was absolutely worth the wait, fantastic sushi rolls, very flavorful and balanced. The soup base for the udon is quite good too. But after we finish eating, we waited for almost 30 minutes just to get the check, we had to wave down multiple waitresses and then they just seem to disappear somewhere and never came back. They didn't seem shorthanded, we saw quite a few waitresses during our dinner, they were just all moving at a very slow speed."

Service was good waitresses were quick, responsive and friendly. Don't expect too much from the food. Shrimp tempura had too much batter, udon soup was too salty, and the tempura did not come with dipping sauce.

This is our favorite place to eat while on vacation. We often talk about coming here specifically for the sushi and then heading home. It's just that delicious! The calamari has changed since COVID, but the food is still amazing.

Always create to deliver some great unique flavors in excellent dishes. The only problem here is that they are too popular so that tables can need a waiting time and sometimes they do not have the ability to handle takeout. These are problems for a great place!

Drunken Monkey was amazing! The presentation of the food was incredible, so many colors! I had the rams, delicious. We also ordered edamame with garlic spices on it for the table and it was a big hit. The service was a little slow, but the overall experience made it completely worth it. Internal and external seat. Will be back! View menu

Family and I ordered a few standard choices as well as some impromptus. Everything (real, everything) was great. There was a bit of waiting and service was muded, but this is all expected in a tourist city and they did a great task to get us and fed. Plan ahead... and order a drink while waiting in the terrace and let your child climb the rocks.

Came here with a bachelor party of 9 guys and had an awesome time! The sushi was really incredible with tons of great options. I don't usually like sushi that much, but this place definitely had a superb menu for anyone who doesn't like sushi much or REALLY loves sushi. Highly recommend. There's also a very interesting drink menu with a tasty selection.

Family and I ordered a few standard choices as well as some impromptu ones. Everything (really, everything) was great. There was a bit of a wait and service was slammed but that?s all expected in a touristy town and they did a great job getting us in and fed. Just plan ahead?and order a drink while you wait in the patio and let your kid climb the rocks. View menu

We had the yellow **** grilled fish and it was really well cut, cooked and plated called hamachi kama. I'm a big fish lover, and this place makes it right. The service was very good. They led us what we like and helped us to order the right items on the menu. My daughter got Hosomaki with some additional articles like Spinat and Aal. Hosomaki was the best we have achieved so far. They looked at our table. Well served. Especially thanks to Koch Nedim and all employees for the amazing experience.

We had the yellow tail grilled fish and it was truly well cut, cooked and plated called hamachi kama. I am big fish lover, and this place does it right. The service was very good. They guided us what we can like and helped us to order the right items on the menu. My daughter got hosomaki with some added items inside like spinach and eel. Hosomaki was the best we ever got so far. They paid good attention to our table. Well served. Special thanks to chef Nedim and all the staff for the amazing experience.

"Oh my goodness! There is so many great things to say about this place. Let's start with our waitress, Courtney. She was AWESOME! She was super nice (we had 5 kids with us ranging in ages from 13 to 6). She was patient with the kids and answered all of their questions and had a great attitude.We went during happy hour which had some great options. I wish I'd of sprang $2 more for the shot of whiskey bc 5 kids...whooo mama needed it We ordered the hummus and flatbread snack, it was very flavorful and the flatbread had a nice texture and had some spices on it that brought out the flavors of the hummus, which had pistachios and kalamata olives on top. Super yummy.We chose to stick to pizzas since we were on our way home and had a 3 hour drive ahead of us, so it came out promptly.Pork belly and Padron was AMAZING! it had an amazing flavor with the honey. We also ordered a meatball pie. I'm super picky about meatballs and these balls were nothing less than absolutely perfect. They weren't overrun by fennel like some balls.The other two pizzas were aimed at the kids, cheese and pepperoni. As mundane as that sounds they were awesome also. The pepperoni had a great flavor and the cheese blend they use must've been made by unicorns because it was some of the best I've had.Now, let's talk about the crust. It was thin and not overpowering. The crust didn't take away from the magic of the toppings but added to the party that was going on inside my mouth!I will definitely be back next time I come to Truckee!Thank you Courtney! Update: 5/21/22Still AMAZING! Their cocktail menu is superb! Creative AND tasty!The hummus is fantastic! The pistachios taste super fresh and their olive oil is smooth. I would like to see a collaboration with their equally fantastic neighbor, Tahoe Oil Spice.I'm NEVER disappointed in their food or their service.5 stars, as usual!"
