by donnasmith at Citysearch
service was not too bad its just hard to talk to them in English, food was ok but sushi I would say its not that fresh and all the rolls are loose but they said its a new sushi chef and everythings different than before they said before was better when they had a chef named NELSON!!!!!
- Pros: parking, filling water
- Cons: slow service, average food, fish not fresh

Huge sushi rolls, great kimchi, but...
by YoboMeg at Citysearch
Their sushi rolls are huge and tasty but falls apart as soon as you touch them with your chopsticks. The korean dishes are really good, the kimchi is excellent, but as far as the other Japanese dishes are concerned, I wouldn't even dare call them Japanese. I wanted to have some homestyle Japanese food and ordered Katsudon, and it was just a huge disappointment for me. I should've just made it myself.
- Pros: Rolls are huge, great kimchi
- Cons: The other dishes can't be called Japanese

So Slooooooooooooooooow
by xizor at Citysearch
Don't you hate it when you walk in and somebody says, "sit wherever you like" and you do... and are then promptly forgotten about and when recognized (5 minutes later) as having no server are given ONE menu for two people? Yeah, that was experience once. The previous visit I didn't have that trouble but our food took an inordinate amount of time to arrive when the place wasn't near capacity. I must say the sushi tastes cheap and the sauces squirted on top of the pieces need to go. The staff is very friendly and the inside is quite charming. An unfortunate situation indeed.
- Pros: friendliness
- Cons: service

Great Sushi and Friendly Staff!
by boxerbabyblues70 at Citysearch
Approximately 6 weeks ago, I started eating Sushi. I may not have an experienced Sushi palate, but I know good food when I eat it. It has become an absolute addiction for me and I frequent Sapparo no less than 3 times per week (somtimes 6 times a week). I think that the lunch prices can not be beat ....2 sushi rolls, soup, and salad for less than 7 bucks! The Chef is always nice and gives good service. In my 25 recent visits, I have never had a bad experience..... and those are pretty good odds!
- Pros: great food and service.
- Cons: none

Good Japanese Food!
by kine671 at Citysearch
I went here the other day when my mom was visiting from Seattle. It was amazingly good. Suprised her who is from a coastal state how fresh the sushi was. We had the California roll and the spicy tuna roll, both which were amazingly prepared and tasted excellent! The salad along with the dressing was wonderful and light. It had a sweet gingery and orangy taste which just felt so cool and refreshing on a day that was reading 104 degrees outside. The miso soup was also done in a very traditional manner. good flavor and portion. The entrees are absolutely impeccable in their taste and presentation. Wonderful place overall. I would reccomend this to anyone looking for good Japanese food.
- Pros: sushi, food, respectful service
- Cons: about 15-20 mins from downtown

Not what it used to be....
by halojane at Citysearch
I dont know where the previous reviewer dined, but it wasnt where I ate last night! I LOVED this restaurant a few years ago, in fact, the ginger salad dressing was all I could eat when I was pregnant!! I went back last night and have been sick ever since. The food was mediocre, its under new ownership I think. Dont waste your money. I am so sick today. Plus, in July, their air didnt work, we sweated. Wish we would have left!!!!!!
- Pros: I liked the restaurant itself, waitress really nice, the air was broken!
- Cons: The horrible stomach ache I had (and still have morning after) eating there!

Ok...
by rickyslade at Citysearch
The fish was excellent, but the sushi rice wasn't quite sticky enough. It takes a lot of skill to get sushi rice sticky enough, but not too sticky...the chef lacked this very important skill. It wasn't a problem for the rolls, but the nigiri was another story...
- Pros: Service, Freshness, Cozy
- Cons: Inexperienced, Sushi, Chefs
