I lived in Japan for 5 years and had my fair share of fresh fish. I thought I’d give this place a try and the fish is fresh, it’s not slimy nor does it smell fishy. As good as it gets for being in America, but not as cheap as what you can get in Japan but it was worth it to me because I haven’t had sashimi this good since I left Japan. Miso is really simple to make and some Japanese restaurants just serve crap but this one is top notch!

We ordered three dishes. Despite the restaurant being empty, we had to wait about 30 minutes. The sushi was fresh, but the server, a Caucasian woman, had no smile and stared at me, which made me feel uncomfortable.

The seating and staff are very nice but the food was very very mid. The food took about 45 minutes to serve and it didn't taste very great. It's also fairly pricy for the things you can get. It's my first and only time.

Came in at opening and it was quiet. Decorate is lovely and what you'd expect. The food really was the highlight. Fish was fresh. Outdoor seating area available.

Bathroom is a bit bare bones.

Great Sushi. Had the dumpling soup as an app and was perfect on a cool day. Finished off with a avacodo eel sushi role ! Very good.

Went after calling so seating was not the issue.
Staff is actually nice. They answered our questions and waited while we took our time to decide what to order.
I ordered shrimp tempura rolls. It came out pretty quick but it was not up to the mark. I am no expert in rolls so cant say what was missing but i have had lot better in Boston. Shrimp tempura is always my go to when i visit a sushi place as it always came out nice. This was an exception here at Sapporo.
