    Great service. The place gives authentic japanese vibes. Went for Valentine’s Day and they included a flower waiting for us at the table. Incredibly varied menu and high quality food.

    The food is good, but I don’t like that they limit only 90 mins per table while require a minimum $75/person in the booth, which is quite a lot of food for 4 persons. We’re totally fine with that as we will order many dishes anyway. We ordered like 4 maki, 3 entrees and bunches of appetizers to share. Food comes quick, but this is not the place for grab and go. 90 mins? Really?

    Fugakyu was excellent as always! Love the brown rice option for sushi, the garlic edamame is yummy and the Agedashi tofu is great. Would love to see more tofu options for some dishes,

    The food was outstanding...very fresh. Only disappointment was the table...we were seated next to the service station which I didn't like. And since we arrived at 4pm, and it was not busy, I asked to switch tables ad they said no....very unhappy with that as it changed the whole atmosphere. yuk

    We booked a private booth and it was incredible. With the doors closed it was so quiet. You had a call button to call the waiter and they arrived so quickly. Ming was our waiter and he was so happy, quick, and nice. Loved him. The spicy girl was the best sushi I ever had.
