Incredible sushi bar experience. We had a great time sitting right at the bar and watching the chef prepare sashimi. All the food was incredible and fresh. Favorite bites were the fatty tuna, the cheesecake, and the salmon sashimi. I'd definitely go again and try everything else on the menu.

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Boulder! We’ve eaten there many times, including last night, where we had a very lovely time, laughed with the staff and other customers at the sushi bar, drank great sake, I had my favorite salad in Boulder the seaweed salad called katsui (sp?). Buy the staff a round! It’s so much fun. 🤩
