Very good service and excellent food. Ambiance is wonderfull and clean.
Amazing atmosphere. Very large selection of meals to choose from. Have eaten here very often and would recommend as excellent.
one of the best japanese restaurants we have been to lately. great atmosphere, server was very professional and most importantly the food was delicious! my husband had the sashimi which he said was very fresh and i had the bulgogee (korean) which was great. although, i feel it would be a good dish to share with someone as it is a lot of meat..but that was my own fault. will definitely return.
My wife and I get a large sushi platter almost every Friday. I love the place, the food ,and the people. Anytime I pick the food up and it's not ready they give me a seat , green tea and sometimes a spicy roll while I wait. This is by far the best sushi place in burlington. ENJOY!!!!!!!!
If only i had more money i would eat here everyday...twice a day!!! The service can be a little slow at times but is more than made up for by the quality and freshness of the food. Worth every penny and worth the wait if you can't get a table right away...the first time i went i waited for over 30 minues for a table and once i tasted the food i was really glad i did.
