    The caterpillar roll is a must... You think it's just the same ol' but it's different. Melts in your mouth. The other tips are right, St. Helens roll is amazing (hot roll, temp wise).

    Fall/winter moves: Matsutake consommé, oceangoing trout sashimi, chef's choice chirashi sashimi + anything else on handwritten daily sushi bar specials. Highly recommended. Sake selection not bad.

    Top tier sushi and an excellent saki list. I tried both the fresh water eel and the saltwater eel - both were among the best I have ever had.

    Everything is so good! Dessert was out of this world, Ginger, Black Sesame and Green Tea gelato!

    Chirashi was great. Rice was well seasoned & fish was super fresh. Also, strangely, the ramen here is fantastic.

    Try and nab a seat at the sushi bar and ask the chefs for recommendations for what's good that day. You won't be disappointed.

    Hello Kitty cocktail was very very good for a fruity drink. Had the Pearl Roll, was pretty simple but very fresh and well-made. Sweet chili sauce was amazing.

    The Asterix Gimlet, Tokyo Drop, and Masu Mojito are all fabulous (if you're into sweet drinks). Holladay roll is fresh and light, unlike any other I've had. Bobby Lo roll also unique, delicate.

    I really liked the Japanista roll, and the Shiso Fine cocktail was great. The rest of the rolls were meh, the steak was tough, and they were out of oyster shooters.

    Order the Death by Sushi. And the Lotus Roll. Actually, everything else too. All of it. The lot. It's all incredible.

    There are two options here: omakase and chirashi. Everything else is great, but these two are amazing.

    The calamari is amazing! Spicy and tender and sautéed perfectly. You won't want to share it.

    The hello kitty is great. Not too sweet and not as frilly as the name implies. :)

    Try the chirashi. Like sashimi, but over a bowl of rice and veggies. Consistently delicious.

    While the sushi was decent, the staff wasn't very friendly or informative when I had questions about the menu. Not the best experience here!

    Maker's Cup is delish. Also sit at the sushi bar--right side--and chat it up with Tristan.

    They "don't do discounts of any kind." No check-in discounts. No matter what the app says.
