Best Sushi ever. You get the true sushi experience because the people who work there have studied and done their research and they’re actually passionate about what they do. The quality of the fish was excellent. The soy sauce they make on their own and it’s just perfect. Service was even better though and it’s only thanks to Ian, our waiter, who is the most dedicated man we ever met. He wasn’t just serving us, it felt like he gave us a show. Not to mention, he’s not just good at his job, he’s also a genuine kind soul. We took a picture with him as well. Honestly 10/10 worth every penny. Great memory. We wish to come back soon.
