“ I’ve been going here for about two years now. Fish is always amazingly fresh and well prepared. Usually get sushi sashimi dinner for two, and I’d recommend! Super creamy, melts in your mouth, and the rolls (maki) are delicious too! ”
“ Great sushi, tempura, green tea. Loved the personal attention and the wonderfully fresh selection. ”
“ We had a delicious sushi dinner here on Valentine's Day. The sushi was very fresh and the chef clearly put much care and attention into the details. The place is tiny, with a small sushi bar and a few tables. Quite a few people who seemed to be regulars came in for take-out while we were there. The chef offered us a plate of artfully cut mango and orange at the end as well. We will certainly be back! ”
“ The food was very tasty, we got the combo for 2 which also includes miso soup, highly recomended! Great service too, really worth the visit ”
“ Super fresh, perfectly prepared sushi every time. Our favorite sushi place in the area. Excellent variety. I just wish I could order online, although they do a great job over the phone and never screw up. ”
“ This place has some of the absolute best quality fish available. Very small, and sometimes service takes a while, but it's worth it for the stunning quality of sushi. ”
“ Still consistently the best shushi I experienced. Moist with a clear definition of which fish is melting in your mouth. Simple. Gorgeous. Even something apparently as trivial as the Mizo soup is a bit special at this place. Only pickup. ETA for orders improved a lot over the years. ”
“ Very good, high quality sushi Found Toro and Uni both extremely fresh and delicious, rare find in Boston especially at competitive prices. Indulge also in the rolls, very creative and tasty! The place is small and cozy, with delicious food. The service and chef are very nice and king! Highly recommend it! ”
