    Amazing place. The food is great, so unique and creative. The drinks have equally as much imagination and are just as good. To top it all off the service is as good as you will find.

    A great blend of oriental meets Mexican food! Listening to some salsa music while watching Cantinflas on TV is priceless! Try the steak tacos!

    Japanese tacos are tasty, try the Carnitas. Wish they were smaller for more sampling, 2x the expected portion so plan accordingly. Overall its a bit more fun than foodie but thats cool

    The margarita is delicious, and so is the Shrimp Tempura Tacos and the Roll that is made with sirloin steak. Loved it! The staff is nice and good- looking.

    Sushi by the plate travels around a conveyor belt through the restaurant. It's color-coded by price. They have great service & a nice atmosphere.

    The rib-eye teppanyaki taco is the BOMB. You need to put it in your mouth hole. Now.

    It's worth it for the conveyor belt alone. Number 11 - rice and chives is amazing. 13 too ^.^

    An odd combination of Mexican sushi and Japanese tacos that is just as confusing as it is delicious. Read more

    Great idea of restaurant, but I'm not going to repeat. $33 for 1burrito+1sushi+coke?! One of the few places that include Gratuity in their checks. No nice

    Nice idea. Doesn't taste very good though. Sea bass tacos were very bland. Banana and cream cheese sticker was fairly good.
