I used to live and work in Tokyo and this is the best Japanese food I've had outside of Japan. While we perused the menu, we started with miso soup and some cherry bouquet sake. It had a lot of umami. Great way to start our meal off. Next, we chose some signature nigiri. The quality, taste, texture, and presentation of the nigiri sushi and rolls were exceptional. Our favorite was the Otoro - it stole the show with its phenomenal taste and buttery texture. When you find a restaurant with exceptional quality, you have to have more than one Otoro! We shared some dishes such as the Nagisa fries; shrimp tempura (light & crunchy tempura batter with perfectly cooked shrimp that had a fresh and subtle sweetness to it); melt-in-your-mouth miso black cod; more signature nigiri, a classic sushi roll, and black sesame ice cream. The service was top notch-attentive, helpful, and personable. We also liked that we could hear each other talk-not too loud and the tables were far enough apart to feel like we had privacy. For the highest quality sushi & sashimi, the prices were very reasonable. And there was convenient and free parking right by the restaurant. This will be our GO-TO restaurant for Japanese!

Excellent service! Incredible selection and quality to both the food and the Sake. The staff are very knowledgeable and find great joy in talking about sake. I enjoyed it so much, I made a new reservation after the second course.
