“ We went there for lunch with our friends and we cannot tell that it was the best. The flavors were not rich, they were average. One sushi roll had thyme and it was the worst thing we have ever tasted! They do not have rolls with raw salmon and philadelphia cheese (which is my favourite combination). All shrimps inside sushi rolls were fried :( ”
