Signature Dishes

  • Caterpillar Sushi

    Sushi wrapped in seared salmon with a pronounced mentaiko aroma; the rice can be springy and the fried shrimp crisp, but it can also come with loose rice and hard fried shrimp.

  • Stir-fried Udon

    The udon is fragrant, but it may also taste mild or slightly sour; the flavor profile varies noticeably.

  • Assorted Sashimi

    Fresh sashimi in thick slices.

  • Grilled Beef Short Rib Rice

    The grilled beef short rib is juicy.

  • Grilled Mackerel Rice

    The grilled mackerel rice dish has good-quality fish.

Avoid if

  • If market smells bother you

What you should know

  • Outdoor seating is available; market smells and sounds from neighboring tables may be part of the dining environment.
  • The delivery sushi is substantial, but salmon fried rice has at times varied in wok aroma, moisture, and seasoning.
  • The pumpkin cheese chakin is very large, filled with crab stick, mashed potato, and cheese; it is relatively starch-heavy and suited to sharing.
