    We’ve always passed by this place when we’re walking pearl st and finally tried it NYE. We had reservation for 2 at 6pm. Our waiter was Matthew (I think?) who was absolutely AMAZING. He knew the menu from sushi rolls, apps, drinks, etc. everything we tried was extremely delicious. As an Asian, it’s been hard to find good sushi or Asian food that makes me want to come back. Notable dishes - hamachi, gyoza, chutoro nigiri, steak nigiri, wagyu tataki, Montana roll, kitsune kiss, akuma cake, yuzu panna cotta. Notable drink, ordered it multiple times, silverton weller cocktail. Food was great. Ambience was great, not too loud, service was great. Staff are prompt with clearing the tables and refilling waters, but never suffocating or hovering when I have food in my mouth. lol. Will definitely be back gain.

    Fabulous birthday meal! They left a birthday message and our server Nita was great. The sushi was, as always, fresh and delicious. The rolls were super tasty. We also had great cocktails and sake.

    The magic mushroom appetizer and Aquaman roll are a must- they’re not like anything you get anywhere else. The green tea creme brûlée was phenomenal, unique and familiar at the same time. A great experience as always!

    Love sushi. First time here and really enjoyed it. Bert’s fresh and well prepared rolls. Not too basic and not too fancy either. Perfect. A bit pricey though.

    Matthew gave great recommendations and checked on us regularly. The table for two by the wall was not ideal. Imagine cutting a window in the wall so guests can see the sushi bar. Food and drinks were delicious!
