Yummy Temaki sushi spot in the West Village. We didn’t make a reservation, and they were fully booked inside, but they were able to seat us outside immediately. There are no outdoor heaters, so it was pretty chilly (but that was kind of on us).

The miso soup was unique and filling. The txakoli wine was AMAZING- incredibly light and perfectly dry. We ordered the signature sets- the temaki is served “open-style” in little taco trays. The nori has this plastic covering that you have to remove off each piece which keeps the nori crispy. My favorites from the set were the tuna poke and coconut shrimp.

Overall the sushi was good and it was an enjoyable experience! I didn’t love the process of taking the plastic off, but simultaneously, it did keep the Nori crispy which was good. It felt like a trendy dining experience– I would recommend checking this spot out! The service was excellent.
Great food but poor service. The samosas were excellent as a starter. The salmon was a bit over salted and lacked originality. The lamb chops were good. Too expensive for the overall experience. It took forever to put in our order, and also took a long time to get the check. Probably won’t return.
