The second I took the first spoonful of tom yam soup I thought "wow, this place deserves 5 stars." The soup was hot, seasoned to perfection, though the number of shrimp was not so great (only 2). When I took my first bite of sushi I confirmed that thought. Sushi were fresh and tasted very good. However, what got me concerned was an extremely upset stomach that I experienced about 20 minutes after finishing the meal! I had major stomach pains. Nobody else who had sushi experienced anything similar. So I am just assuming that either the upset stomach was due to Tom Yum that I finished all on my own or due to stress. Mind you, I usually don't have stomach problems unless the food is spoiled. I don't want to arrive to any assumptions because I really enjoyed everything that we ordered and everybody else who joined us during that meal haven't experienced any problems. I give this place the benefit of the doubt, and thus I didn't give it anything less than 4. I couldn't bring myself to giving it 5 stars because my stomach was upset right after the meal, and because I felt like the prices were kinda steep. For example, $7.50 for Tom Yum was steep - despite the fact that the broth was amazing, 2 small shrimps didn't seem enough to justify the price.

Great food. One of the best sushi joints at the shore. However service can be slow at times

Avoid this place. Go somewhere else. My wife and I went to dinner here and the entire experience was negative. The service was slow and inattentive, which I typically forgive if the food is good, but it wasn't. The food looked and tasted bad, especially the sushi. Presentation is a huge part of eating sushi, and the presentation was awful; they dumped the rolls into a bowl, instead of lining them up nicely on a plate. This may sound insignificant, but it isn't. The ingredients in rolls we ordered were not high-quality. The mango in the rolls were rock hard. It was nearly inedible.

Had a bad experience here tonight. We arrived about 6:00PM on Friday night, not yet busy. Party of 5 with 2 kids. Waitress took order, wife was first to get meal after long wait, several minutes later other 3 meals came out. Was told last meal would be right out. One of the orders received was wrong and included ingridient specifically told to leave out. Last meal arrived long after everyone else finished eating. The last dish was over cooked and horrible. I understand these things happen sometimes but they did not take ownership of the situation or offer to rectify in any way. Bad business in my opinion. We had enjoyed this place in the past but will not return. Plenty of other options in area.
