Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; limited metered spots nearby and can be tight after 6pm. Rideshare is easier during late-night hours.
Dress code: Casual — hoodies, jeans, and workday basics all fit right in.
Noise level: Low to moderate — counter-service energy, but not loud or chaotic.
Weekend wait: 10–20 minutes during peak late-night hours
Weekday lunch: Little to no wait
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — vegetable rolls, tofu bowls, and customizable hibachi options.
Vegan options: Limited — vegetable-based bowls and rolls if sauces are adjusted.
Gluten-free options: Limited — rice bowls can work, but cross-contact is likely and soy-based sauces dominate.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal for a traditional date — it’s more about speed and convenience than atmosphere or lingering.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes — it’s counter-service focused, so you can usually order and sit without planning ahead.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes — simple bowls, mild flavors, and quick service make it easy for kids, though there are no dedicated kid amenities.
Best For
Better for: Fast, inexpensive combo meals when you want sushi rolls as a side rather than the main attraction.
Skip if: You’re looking for roll craftsmanship, variety, or a sit-down sushi experience — dedicated sushi bars will deliver more depth.
