“ Best sushi in Dallas! Period. Always fresh and reasonably priced for what you get. The smoked tuna is out of this world. Great view of the fountains and lake from the outdoor patio and its on the shaded side of the building. The atmosphere inside is relaxed and comfortable. Always clean. Staff and owner are amazing and attentive. The bar tender knows how to make a great drink as well. Try a sidecar, ask for it Barts way. Can’t go wrong! ”

“ We thoroughly enjoyed the food and our waiter (James) - He gave us great recommendations on what were some great tasting sushi We have the Akami, Surf ‘n Turf, Ceviche, and the California roll. They were all delicious Not pictured here is the gyozas, and the mini wonton tacos .... Both were very tasty. The Gyozas were soft on the inside, but the ends were crispy (so good ). The wonton tacos were all very good. The inside was stuffed with ceviche, and dang those things are crunchy and so good! And last, but not least... The Whiskey Macchiato, holy poop - It was dang good! It is rather small, so I could definitely eat that by myself All in all? It was a great experience, and I we will be coming back...
