My wife and I walked past this restaurant, did a double take and had a delicious meal. Both the salmon and eel sashimi were delightful. The veggie gyoza and dipping sauce were excellent. Their selection of rolls is not what you are used to. They have created some incredible flavor combinations. We enjoyed the Sexy City and Tropical rolls and there were others we cannot wait to try.
Super convenient and affordable. I order ahead and pickup. My go to is their lunch special, 3 rolls and soup or salad. The food is fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.
I order from here pretty often. For lunch or dinner while I’m at work and it does the job. The people who serve you are so decent and welcoming. I usually get shrimp tempura roll 🍱 and dumplings 🥟- or, either or. It’s also affordable and that’s my favorite part 😋. If you love sushi I would suggest this spot it’s fresh, clean and welcoming. Enjoy!
We had not had sushi in Philly in awhile and we were not impressed, kinda average. The food was good, don't get me wrong. However the roll I had ordered used cucumber as the wrapping (nori). But it was good 👍I guess I missed that detail 😁
We were offered to sit anywhere and one of our guests picked by the door (which was open BTW). So many times vehicles and buses were nosey going by (along with the music inside was loud at times. I mean, next time I'll have to remind myself to sit further back. 😉
The only thing I might suggest might be bad was the service. It's not like it was bad bad, but it was maybe just too relaxed for us. We knew what we were going to order, and had to wait. Then waited for asking about getting the check. Then waited for the chance to get the check. I'm not going to say anything super bad but the waitress was definitely taking care of multiple other things not just us. So maybe short staffed?
I think the prices for the combo of 2 or 3 was rather silly (on both types). There is zero savings on getting two or three that way unless maybe you get the most expensive but even then no!
I kinda thought a combo or multiple order for a single person would get some kind of discount. But according to the prices there basically is none. Oh well...
We left here for Mr Wish but that was a mistake. Maybe we should have tried the desserts here. Maybe next time! Staff was friendly.
TLDR; Frozen Chirashi (with 10/18 pieces not fish)
Ordered a chirashi to go, but when I got home, of the 18 pieces of “sashimi” only 8 were actually fish (see photo attached) and the rest was egg/imitation crab/thin tofu. Not only that, but when I bit into the tuna, it was still frozen!
Pretty disappointed and wouldn’t recommend.
