Entering through the back parking lot lacks a wow impression you’d get at other sushi restaurants in this price category. Service felt rushed. Fast service is good, but it seemed like a rush to get the check paid and get out. The food was impressive. Great taste and good value for the quality.

Overall dinner was amazing and the food was delicious. We had to ask for soy sauce which I thought was very unusual given that it’s a sushi restaurant and then we also had to ask for small soy sauce dishes but other than that the service was impeccable. It is expensive for sure but definitely worth it!

Great place. Food is amazing and ambience is perfect for any occasion. We would like some Makarel dish that is only available for dinner. They did it for us. Amazing service. Front door is a little hard to find. Since it is on the parking lot side and tucked in the corner. But Overall is good.

Hands down one of the best experiences! Even though the power went out (which was out of the restaurants control and you can blame the city of Austin for that mess), we received TOP of the line service. Our experience and service was almost as if the power did not go out. The food was incredible. Our server suggested fantastic options for us like Fatty Salmon, Eel hand-role etc. Must go back!

The food and service was amazing as always! However, they turned up the music 2x and it was insanely loud. Any time we have eaten here the music has never been this loud and it made me very uncomfortable as my ears and head started to hurt. Also, I couldn’t hear anything people were saying. I really hope this doesn’t happen again

Very beautiful spot along trendy South Congress. Cooked appetizers were very nice (tempura okra) but the miso eggplant and crispy basa bass were ok. Some in too much sauce. Nigiri is very expensive. Rolls were very tasty but doesn't match the price point.

Reese, our server, made this experience super memorable! She was attentive and gave the best recommendations based on our taste and feedback. We had a feast of a wide variety of options in the menu that included tartare, salads, vegetable and buttery fish sashimis and nigiris, rolls, hand rolls paired it with ice cold beer and miso ice cream. Best birthday dinner ever. Thank you NS!

Not impressed. The sushi was pretty good but not spectacular for the price. The happy hour doesn’t discount the sushi at all. Our server seemed to be in a constant hurry even though the restaurant was empty and that made us feel rushed for no reason. Overall, it was fine but probably not somewhere I’ll go back.
