“ Hands down the best sushi bar in Contra Costa. Freshest seafood, excellent service and overall tasty creations. Weve come here for years. ”
“ Consistently fantastic food, atmosphere, and staff, whether you choose to eat inperson or pickup your meal. My family has been going here for 5 years and its part of the regular rotation. The appetizers, meals, and sushi selections are all delicious. No idea why previous commenters would complain about a fish smell in a fishbased cuisine establishment... ”
“ I wasnt going to write a review of this spot in the layfayette shopping center but no way this is a 3.9. It is much better than that. Sushi here was very good, so was service. Dont listen to the haters! ”
“ I have always had good sushi here. Fresh and decent portions. Expensive. The spider roll is solid, no imitation crab or filler. I love Ebisu in the inner sunset and for the far east bay, this is the closest to it that I have found. ”
“ Small quiet sushi joint, perfect for a date night. Went at 8 and sat at the sushi bar. Server was very nice and friendly. Had really good cold sakehad a little ice chamber to keep it cold miso soup and tofu to start. The sushi rolls were made quick, and they were amazing! Reasonably priced too.
