"The service was very fast for a Saturday night. My wife and I enjoyed the atmosphere very much. The food, of course, was great as well. They have a great variety of sushi available. There is traditional seating, bar seating, and a private room that you can reserve in advance. It's a great part of the EpiCentre complex!"

"The food was excellent! The menu was filled with wonderful sushi options, soba and Asian fusion dishes. However, service was quite slow so do not go if you are in a rush (or need to see a show afterwards, etc.)"
