The value for the price is exceptional! The beer is served ice-cold and complements any dish perfectly. Everything, from the tables and dining areas to the bathrooms, is impeccably clean. The customer service is outstanding; the staff is friendly and ensures that food for the entire party arrives together. The tasteful artwork and decorations create a charming, homey atmosphere, despite the spacious layout. I would definitely return!

First time trying the food here today and let me tell you, it was delicious! Me and my husband are always looking for new places to try out in town & I think this is one of our new places to visit. Highly recommend if you love sushi, noodles and ramen. Food, service and atmosphere are on point.

Walked down from my house for the first time. Had the fried port cutlet over rice with sauce and egg. Aka Katsu Don. It was amazing! So much food for the price! I ate about 2/3rds of it and took the rest home for a snack the next day. The service was prompt and the draft Japanese beer was perfect! Definitely going into my restaurant rotation. If you need to seat a larger group, there's a side room behind the bank where you can have up to several dozen people be served at once. I would suggest looking / calling ahead before your large party arrives. Also a full on Sushi Bar as well with bar seating.

I'm always pleasantly surprised when I get a meal here. The restaurant is fairly close to the house and I see it whenever I go to the Japanese bakery just outside. But I tend to stop in only when we want to grab a good meal but feel a bit rushed. So we pick Akebono because we can get there quickly. So we end up coming here, order our food, and then have a very good meal. Typically this is for lunch so I really recommend the bento boxes. The tempura I had last time was excellent and the sushi is very good. I also recommend their beef teriyaki. The meals are a great deal and come with plenty of food. The staff is always friendly and service is quick. The restaurant is large so there's rarely any waiting, and plenty of parking. Highly recommended.

A very popular sushi restaurant! Came here with my cousin for dinner to try and branch out from our usual spots. The sushi was tasty and they have tons of options. It was very busy the day we went but they have a lot of seating to accommodate. The staff were nice and the restaurant definitely has a high busy kind of energy to it from the decor to how many people were there. Have only been here the one time, so I want to come back to try some other options. The roll I got (sorry can’t remember the name) had fresh sliced lemon on top which I love. We did get one roll that had cream cheese in it and it honestly was too much cream cheese that we poked it out. Would come back!

Came here for my wedding anniversary and later again for my husband's birthday. Biggest sushi rolls I've been seen in my life, and I've been eating sushi for 2 decades. My husband loves the chicken katsu curry. This is now one of our special occasions restaurants. You will be super full (if you get the right rolls) and have leftovers. I add cream cheese to my rolls. Service is helpful and nice. I love this place. Might try the ramen sometime but I love their sushi!
