Decor & Ambience - Relaxed sushi joint, convenient location if you're in the downtown hood. Clean with pretty basic decor. Nice calming muzak played in the background, never seems to get too loud or bumping.
Good for when you … - Good for dining alone, or with a friend or 2. Excellent place to take a date if you want to impress them with your knowledge of nigiri or your chop stick game. Kid friendly, I've never asked, but they're so nice I'm sure they'd give you a fork if you can't navigate them chopsticks.
Service - Really good, almost too good. Those servers are all about the green tea refills. They're probably supposed to be that attentive but damn, I don't need to drink 12 cups of green tea no matter how small they are. Other than drowning by green tea, the service is good.
Food - The sushi is great. I love sushi. I really love sushi. Their sushi is fresh, prepared on the spot and always displayed beautifully. I wasn't so crazy about their ramen but it takes some mega ramen game to impress me. Specialty rolls are awesome but a bit pricey, basic rolls are affordable and tasty. Food is brought out as it is ready, which gives you time to finish all the green tea refills.
Drinks - The green tea is plentiful. I've never had a cocktail here, because I don't believe in ordering cocktails at restaurants that don't have a bartender, I'm too young for that much disappointment. They have import beers and a couple shitty domestics. Obviously if you're getting sushi, you're not going to be drinking Kokanee (am I right?) Kirin or Asahi all the way. Or you can totally impress your date and order saki, hot or cold, live a little.Good for when you … - Good for dining alone, or with a friend or 2.

Hot Sauce Supply - You don't need hot sauce at a sushi joint. But they probably have chili oil if you ask.
WiFi - Yes
Hours -
Price - $$, not gonna break your wallet, but if you're a millennial swimming in debt, save this for an extra special treat ("I bombed my midterms I need a pick me up!" or "I aced my midterms, go me!") That being said, its still my favorite sushi spot in Victoria.
