    No fancy sauces, no over-the-top presentation—just high-quality sushi done right. Sometimes, simple is best.

    Wabi Nori is dangerous. I keep saying “just one more” and suddenly I’ve ordered six handrolls and a cocktail.

    The Perfect First Date Spot Casual, intimate, and impressive without being too fancy. Plus, if they don’t appreciate good sushi, do you really want a second date?

    Better Than My Last Relationship At least my Bluefin Otoro Handroll didn’t disappoint me.

    Sake and Sushi = The Perfect Night The Superior Junmai Ginjo sake paired so well with my Salmon Handroll that I considered writing poetry about it.

    Why is nobody talking about how good this place is? Maybe it’s best they don’t—more handrolls for me

    Handrolls So Good, I Forgot to Take a Picture You know the food is next-level when you don’t even think about taking a photo before devouring it.

    Yeah, it’s not the cheapest. But one bite of the Unagi Handroll and I was already planning my next visit.
