We visited last night and honestly it was the best dining experience we’ve ever had. Chef was really fun, cooked food in front of us and put on a super fun show. The food itself was stunning. The waitress was lovely too. We will be back many times!

We went here for my son's birthday since he loves sushi, and it was great! As well walked in we noticed the great wallpaper and decerations, and the waiter immediately led us to our seats. An amazing server name Gene, who was humorous and wonderful, cooked the food on a metal platform right in front of us! It was great and we ate a ton of sushi and the waiters took photos for us. Afterward, before we left, they served my son a piece of cake and he loved it! We left satisfied and I would completely recommend.

First time here and loved it. Sat at the grill watching the chef doing his magic! Amazing food, the restaurant have a great vibe and all staff were very friendly, the only "let down" was a bit slow service taking into consideration that there wasn't many people in. Though still would happily go back!

The food here is so good and for an excellent price as well. We’ve been here a few times to dine in but decided to get some take away for lunch today and it didn’t disappoint. Love this place and can’t wait to come back.

Fantastic, high quality, great service, reasonably priced in comparison to sushi places in Bangor. Up there with my favourites "Kamakura" and "Oishi boutique" ( Belfast ). Deffo my new monthly order closer to home Only thing I will say is that the delivery is very slow, takes over an hour and charged at 4!

First time ordering a takeaway from here, they were quick to have my order ready. When I arrived to collect it wasn't quite ready yet but I paid and was able to use their toilet. The restaurant was quiet, I think only 2 people in at the time so not much atmosphere. The food however was great, they didn't have cutlery just chop sticks but I was actually able to eat it all (even the rice) with them. I thought it was good value for money and I'd go back. Staff were friendly too.
