The exquisite sushi, made with the finest selection of seafood carefully chosen by the owner, surprises with its elegant richness that spreads in the mouth with each bite. The plump texture of the shari, along with the perfect balance of the freshness and seasoning of the neta, embodies the classic taste of sushi.
