This is an excellent "purist" sushi joint, but it is NOT inexpensive -- so don't trust the single "$" noted on Google right now. It's more like $$$. $6.00-$6.50 per order of basic sushi (two pieces) -- ended up being $160 for four people (includes on beer on one bottle of nigori) before tip.
The quality was superb, but they are definitely smaller size cuts of fish, so prepare to order more than you normally might.
The warm rice is different twist. Great selection of sushi and it was nice to see a female chef. The hours of operation are not the best.
To give fair warning to anyone going in the first time: It's required to order a minimum of 4 items per person at a table and 5 per person if sitting at the bar. Sitting at the bar also means that the chef decides what you eat.
With that caveat out of the way the sushi was absolutely the best I've ever had. Many of the dishes had sauces put into them while being made and were recommended to be eaten without anything added to them. I followed that advice and didn't regret it for a moment.
The fish melted in the mouth and, even as a person who enjoys spicy foods but doesn't handle them well, the spicy sauce put into each item was superbly done and never caused me any problems. Each individual part was designed to perfectly compliment the main ingredient.
I do have to specifically mention that the eel was stunningly delectable and now heads my "best sushi item ever" list.
The staff was incredibly nice and unfailingly polite even though I came in a bare 30 minutes before they closed. The restaurant was small but delightfully proportioned to allow close seating without feeling crowded. The place seemed quite clean and well kept, the music selection was nice and provided excellent background to the idle talk, and the location makes it into a hidden gem nestled between other businesses.
I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to delight their palate and appreciate a small and quiet meal. I personally intend to make a more regular habit of visiting.
The food was excellent. First time trying albacore and it was absolutely delicious. And the toro handrolls were amazing. Only quibble is that this restaurant should definitely not be rated a single $ on price, probably more like $$$ (they have a 4 order minimum, and everything on the menu is between $6-$9; with drink, tax and tip it ends up coming out to about $40/person minimum).
I had never had omakase before but loved this place. Really good fish, a wide variety of dishes, fast and attentive service in an unpretentious venue with free parking. I would definitely go again.

The "No Cell Phone" sign at the door sets the tone for a meal focused on melt-in-your-mouth sushi made by one serious chef. While he presents seasonal highlights and rare cuts (among other delights, we sampled a buttery escolar with a light garlic glaze, and kinka-saba, a thinly sliced, sweet ...
