Every time I'm in Ottawa I come here for sushi. It never disappoints. Try either the sashimi combo or the sashimi/nigiri combo if you don't mind the chef choosi...

I had some sushi to start and it was melt in your mouth. But I also had some ramen with spicy beef. Problem was the only spice was raw garlic. I suppose I tried...

Only one server for the whole place Food was too salty and tasteless Seafood soup had only three shrimps and fake crab

Jazzworks Jam, third Thursday evening, each month. Great music, food and drinks!

Service was good. I ordered miso soup and shrimp/ veggie tempura was good as well but the sushi was not unfortunately. I ordered a spicy salmon roll which I had...

Large portion sizes, taste and atmosphere! Definitely recommend the soft-shell basket and chicken catsu!
