Best sushi in Milwaukee! Happy hour goes 'till 10pm. Great saketinis and FABULOUS sushi . Get the wagyu beef jalapeno poppers - they'll change your life.

The Monster roll was great. We sat at the sushi bar and were given a free piece of sashimi to try. We also got a free glass of wine . Can't go wrong!

Happy hour 4:30-6:30 pm and 8:30-10 pm M-Th. Drink, appetizer and sushi rolls are about 15-35% off regular menu prices.

Kathy Bohn, MKE Realtor

Great experience! Here for birthday sushi . Very fresh and delicious. Private booths available. The chocolate lava cake with green tea ice cream is decadent!

Stefani K

Great California rolls and spicy mayo ! Will definitely be back!

A.J. Brahm

Diamond sake , sake bombs , and the back "Tatami Room"/den for large group celebrations.

If you're vegetarian , definitely get the bibimbop . Some of the fresh wasabi mixed in is fantastic.

Maura Q

One of the best sushi places I've been to, great happy hour specials all night!

Andrew

Great happy hour : 430-6pm. Half off most rolls and drink specials . Service is also very good.

Ashley M

Great rolls. Definitely would come back.

Stefani K

Do I love the sushi here? Yes! On the other hand, the staff here is NOT up to par. No one helped me for almost 20 minutes! I’ve called before and they don't answer the phone! This place is a mess!!

Eric Strackbein

Good sushi , prices during happy hours are hard to beat.

Ashley M

Different rolls which was nice but they over book the waitstaff . Waited almost 15 minutes before anyone came over and when someone did it wasn't our waitress . Also make reservations .

Service was great, atmosphere good, food presentation very cool, but just not that impressed with the food after my third time here.

Sushi is good, service a bit inattentive.

Summer

Great atmosphere overall, but service was terrible. It was annoying to listen to the staff snap at each other and complain loudly about customers. Professionalism was lacking!

Emily VandenHeuvel

Great Philly rolls !
