  Good food but the cashier does not speak English well. I ordered a combo that had some tuna,salmon,and ebi. I specifically said I wanted salmon instead of the tuna. I understood the man did not speak English well so I made sure that he understood. He repeated what I said I agreement. He gave me tuna. I did not notice until I got to the table so I did not say anything about it. I had also ordered a miso soup. As well I had of course again tried to make sure that he understood. He did not give me the miso, nor charge me for it, I had thought he did but my family brought me to the realization that it was just tax. When I asked him where it was he attempted to tell me that no, I didn't order that. After some banter I finally just said whatever, and that it was fine. I sit down at my table, and I felt like my meal was ruined. I just decided to start eating. I opened up my soy sauce and dipped it a California roll. A tiny, itty bitty, dip of soy sauce completely overpowered my roll. I tried to fix it with wasabi, but all that did was make it horribly spicy. This was a very bad experience and I suggest that they hire someone who speaks better English to work the counter. I have been here before and greatly enjoyed myself. I honestly don't know what happened to cause this, but this service took a potential five star review all the way down to a two star review. I hope that this impacts the way that this restaurant runs, and I don't want this to be rude. I just want this to help this restaurant and improve other people's experiences. I hope it is better by the next time I come.

  Enjoyable sushi. But definitely not fresh. A little pricey for the quality of fish you're getting.
