Ordered delivery.
There was a changeup in the order method similar to the situation that described in other reviews. I was a little anxious about this and actually attempted to cancel my order out of fear I would have similar problems with wrong items, totals, delays etc. When I was told it was too late, as the order was already on its way, I resigned myself to dealing with it.
Although my order did come later than originally expected (by approx 30-40 mins), the items were right, 3/4 dishes I would recommend, and overall I would say this was a positive experience.

-Sashimi platter was great, and came with a side of quality sushi rice that was not listed as being included on the menu and felt like an unexpected bonus. The salmon was a particularly flavorful cut.
- Philadelphia roll was good, and had a well-balanced ratio of ingredients. I loved that there was more salmon than cream cheese.
- Ginger salad was fresh and the dressing was tasty.
- Seaweed salad was the only miss of the order. It had an odd, sweet flavor to it that I didn't recognize or particularly appreciate. I hate to waste food, but I didn't end up eating any of this.

I ordered here from Doordash for pickup. While on my way, I was called and asked to pay in cash to get a 10% discount. I said no, but the man was yelling so I finally said ok just to get off the phone. I had to stop by an ATM so as not to incur fees using theirs (as he suggested) and arrived ten minutes after I had asked for the order to be ready. It was still not ready. My Doordash total was $56 and I had a $10 off coupon. When my order was finally ready about 20 minutes after I it was supposed to be, it was somehow $58 WITH the 10% discount. It was already late and I was tired so I just paid and left. I got the order home to find that we two of our rolls were replaced with other rolls we didn't order. The rolls were poorly wrapped and fell apart- each one. When I called to complain about the incorrect order, the man tried to explain to me that I was wrong and the correct rolls were there. I explained that I can tell the difference between fish and vegetables. He refused to listen to me so I just told him I would never order from there again and now I am here so you won't either.

Always love this place, great food and reasonably priced but my last visit, my rolls tasted like mayonnaise! I know they have to use a little to keep it together but the mayonnaise over powered the fish. Just terrible.

This place use to be decent back in day , I used to order the Baked Philly roll all the time , it was delicious, I used to order on Door Dash, and they would call and offer 20% off if I order with them and pay cash. So this time I called and told them what I wanted , the usual. The Philadelphia roll BAKED, I said it to him multiple times as it seems like his English was limited. He said to bake it , it would be extra charge (I’ve ordered it multiple times, and that was never an option before) so I thought that they might had changed the menu and went with it , he said he would charge me extra 1 dollar per roll to baked it… I said ok… I gave him the exact address I was at, the name of the hotel , he repeated all the orders back to me and the address… then, I get a phone call saying delivery was here, I went down , and he wasn’t , he went to a different hotel… then had to sit outside in the cold waiting, the delivery guy comes in, handles me the food , when I check, I had all the wrong orders, they gave me a Philadelphia roll with raw fish, even after I told him MULTIPLE TIMES, I wanted the special backed Philadelphia roll… I called him and he said , I got the baked roll, as I’m looking at the raw fish NOT BAKED, so he told me he was gonna send me the right ordered … then calls me 5 min later saying that he would have to charge me for the new order , even though HE MADE A MISTAKE, and sent me the wrong food… he wanted to charge me for the wrong order and the new order… rude employees, I will never order from them ever again, they lost a regular… and the food tasted TERRIBLE, I had to order from elsewhere, this place really went down the hill… I’m very disappointed.

Really nice staff and service, a great choice of 🍣 veggie and classic. They also are really fast for last minute pickup orders. Being very careful during careful during the covid crisis. And very reasonable prices
