    Great food here as always. The only problem is that they take 9:30 reservations and close up at 10. So while you are waiting for your order to arrive, you are informed that it’s last call and need to decide if you want anything else including dessert at that time. At 10:00 the lights behind the sushi bar are extinguished, the entire kitchen staff exits en masse. You really feel like you are keeping past closing. This is a bad policy. They should either operate (offer their menu) until their diners are finished or stop taking reservations after 8:45.

    Excellent miso soup; the best I have had. The nori chips with tuna tartar with avocado are excellent; just the right umami taste with soy sauce. Attentive service but not rushed. A great choice for sushi.

    the food here is amazing. the fish is fresh ! and it’s really delish. the lunch special is my go-to! the 2 rolls with a salad. or the sushi & roll combo with a salad. best lunch deal on the UWS. what it lacks in ambiance makes up for in the sushi specials.
