We tried this restaurant for the first time today and it was fantastic! Great food and service. The prices were very reasonable and we will absolutely be back. I'm so glad we have this restaurant on the South side. We tried the crab Rangoon, tempura crab, crab salad, and one of their premium sushi rolls. All were delicious but that crab salad was 🤌. Definitely worth a visit!

Do not walk but RUN to this place! We had several items on the menu and they did not disappoint! When speaking w the owner, he said he was from out of town and has cooked for several celeberties including Whitney Houston! Big blessing for the Southside!
