Probably some of the best sushi in the Pasadena area. The family run restaurant is a pretty busy place, with mom and dad running the cashier, and the two sons as the sushi chefs.



Definitely try out the Omakase, they have excellent judgment on what you will and won't like. They have everything from the ultra traditional to the new and "Californian".



I'd recommend trying out either the Salmon or the Red Snapper with Lemon and Seasalt ... it's an amazing combination on a traditional nigiri.



The cuts of fish are excellent as well. Probably some of the best Yellow Tail Toro and Blue Fin Toro I've had in a long time.



Lastly, finish off your meal with the Uni. It's cold, sweet, and succulent. It was so good I had to savor every bite.

There is a big difference in quality right from the time you enter this establishment. The service is top notch and the owners are the nicest people in the world. The sushi is world class and the special dished they make will have you come back for more.
