What People Are Saying

from Google & Yelp

"3.5 stars if half stars were possible. Honestly surprised by the food quality! I got the Vegas and honey roll and both were really good and priced well. The food was fresh and the rice was a great consistency- not mushy- and the tempura shrimp was really crispy. Definitely more of a fast casual feeling place- not somewhere you want to sit down and stay awhile. The views of the sidewalk and parking ramp aren’t the best, but i imagine if you placed an order to go and were staying at the graduate, it would probably be a really good situation. The service is a little slow, even when there was only one other seated table there. Overall good but wouldn’t choose over other sushi places. However, in immediate downtown Iowa city, it’s one of the better options."

★★★

"There was a fly constantly flying around us. I expected the water to at least be filtered with this price of food. And their Taiwanese Beef Noodles sucks—the beef wasn’t tender enough to be able to eat with their chopsticks and their soup spoon. Overall a bad experience."

"First time to this restaurant and to Iowa City for that matter! My daughter ordered an 8 piece Crazy Horse and Jasmine Green Tea to go. A set of chopsticks were given. She really enjoyed it. Very authentic and fresh! Full menu of authentic Japanese cuisine. Order was taken and prepared efficiently. Very happy with the service. Fun little stop along our route!"

★★★★★

"This is the best sushi I’ve had in Iowa. I’m normally in Des Moines but stopped out here recently. The waitress was great, and the flavor and freshness of the sushi was AMAZING! It’s also really affordable compared to other places that I’ve been. I’ll definitely be back."

★★★★★

"Great place for sushi and poke bowls. Our family agreed this was some of the best sushi we have had in a long time outside a major metropolitan area. Service was quick and servers were super nice. They were short staffed so certain things were unavailable, which is understandable in our current environment."

★★★★★

"This hidden gem has great food...the Taiwanese beef noodle soup is very good, as are the milk teas. The sashimi was fresh and delicious, and the green tea..."
