The special rolls are great if your looking for that kind of delicious sushi that may not be authentic but is delicious. Good service and great entries to boot.

Peter van Teeseling

Can't go wrong. Yes the food is great - the service is amazing. One of the best nights for a long time. Come in and enjoy.

Sexy man roll all the way! So delicious. The Lucus roll was also good. Nice small quant place and very friendly staff . I will definitely be back.

Jashan Chopra

Nice resturant. Slighty short lunch menu but excellent quality. Service was nice but a little pushy. Nice atmosphere and seating. Only problem was it was a little hot, no air-conditioning. 7.5/10

Eric Hamlet

A truly casual no-frills dining experience. Kind staff , delicious food, & a relaxed atmosphere . Sit at the couch table & enjoy a sexy woman roll for the most laid back dining experience in Sarasota!

Altman Heddens

Service sucks. Beef was raw when I asked for medium rare. Charged me for a 16oz beer when it was only 12. Sushi is high grade but I wouldn't recommend anything else.

Courtney Minthorn

Worst service I've ever had at a restaurant . It took twenty minutes to order and forty to get our food. When we did get our food it wasn't even hot.
