I continue to be surprised at some of the negative reviews about the food here. This place has become a staple in our neighborhood diet for the last 3 years. We have tried several different items on their menu from soup to appetizers to sushi and the main dishes... And remain impressed! We often bring out of town guests here for dinner and they have all enjoyed what was ordered. \n\nThe service has gotten better over the years, although they do sometimes seem shorthanded... I think some of this is compounded by the fact that you never can tell when it will be busy here and when it won't. For example one Sunday night it will be dead and another it will be packed. The place is clean and they have great happy hour specials.
