Yelp Reviews

Michael R

The best sushi take-out restaurant in Pasadena! Amazing selection of fresh fish and great quality wagyu beef. The chef/owner puts a lot of love and skill in every delicious dish.

Jen L

Impressed with the sushi set (I got the standard version but there's also a premium and lite option). As someone who loves sushi but doesn't always have the time or energy to go out to a restaurant, I was thrilled to discover this option.

Great service - impeccably packed up with all necessary utensils and sauces. The best part, the food was amazing and everyone (40+) all raved about their bentos. Thank you!
