    Loved this restaurant! Definitely an experienced sushi chef, as the rolls were the perfect ratio of rice to fillings, and all the flavors were balanced. The caterpillar and Christmas in July rolls were so yummy! The salmon sashimi was also very fresh and melted in my mouth. The popcorn chicken, spring rolls, crab puffs, chicken satay, miso soup, Cali roll were all good as well. We really loved the fried rice. Light but still flavorful. The steamed vegetables were more crunchy than preferred, so if you like your veg softer, you will want to let them know. This restaurant uses fresh quality ingredients, and we would definitely eat here again.
