One of Worst

by PhilZ

Ate here because of reviews. We have eaten at many Japanese Resturants, around the world. This could be one of the worst. Standard Chicken teriyaki was dry, had the manager taste it. She said next time tell them not to cook as long!!! Rib Eye Sukiyaki was not a rib eye, and flavor was marginal at best. Hawaiian poke, was not a poki, but a vineared fish, of some sort fish, the freshness-very bad. Children tempura plate, just had some vegies. Tried to explain our experience to the manager, and all she could say as they have won a award!! I would not recommend this resturant. There is one on Hamiltion called Sushi Z---- which is 10 times better

• Cons: Worst Japanes Food we have had

Best and most authentic South Bay Sushi

by rolandus

I have tried numerous Sushi places in the South Bay, and this one definitely stands out as the best of the bunch. The fish is brought in fresh daily, and is of the highest quality. The preparation of the rolls are delicate and melt in your mouth. And talking about ambiance, the interior reminds me of the small eateries in Kyoto, Japan. The service is attentive and friendly. The live piano, on Fridays and Saturdays, needs to be a little less loud, however. This is a cute stand-alone Japanese theme restaurant. It makes the sushi taste even more flavorful when you can savor it in authentic style surroundings, instead of the usual strip mall type environment. Yes, they are pricey. But, as the old saying goes, "you get what you pay for", and may I add...it is well worth it!

• Pros: Ambiance, quality, freshness
• Cons: Need to tone down the loudness of the live piano on Fridays and Saturdays.

Excellent food!

by jordanair45

Excellent sushi, parking is not a problem, and it is a very nice place. The waitresses are a little slow, but the cooks are very nice and prompt. For faster service, sit at the bar and not at a table. The food sometimes take a while, but if you wait long enough you will experience the best sushi in San Jose. Some say that it is priced too high during dinner, but I think that overall you get a great deal since the rolls are huge and the prices fairly inexpensive, especailly for the quality of the food. The spicy calimari appetizer is a MUST, trust me on that one. Looking for good sushi? This is a must.
