Long time yelper, first time review.\n\nI went to this place based off of its rating on this site on Saturday night in January at around 10:30 pm. The place is EXTREMELY casual and lively. We waited for about 20 minutes and sat at the bar.  The sushi chefs do not engage the patrons unlike most bars and the waitresses' attitudes are just a tad above neutral.  The food however makes up for all of this.  It was insanely good for the price.  If you like authentic Japanese over fusion you won't be disappointed.  The sake was great, the sashimi fresh, and the specials unique.  I never paid more than $10 for a dish and I tried some of their most expensive specials.\n\nWhen I gave the hostess my name, Brad, she wrote it down in Japanese on the list.  Did I mention this place was authentic?\n\nFor the love of god/science ... get the honey toast, words cannot describe this deceptively extravagant treat.  Worth the trip alone.
