I would write them higher as I did visit them pretty often up until last night was the last time Ill ever walk in their doors. As I drove 20 minutes to get there to eat dinner as I know theyre open. Im not sure if its the owner or just an employee but shes there all the time she greeted me and my friend at the door that were very hungry after moving all day. The "hostess" asked if we were going to eat fast as they close in about 20 minutes...... I was shocked after being in the restaurant business for many years and having a former manager/owner doing that to other customers where I used to work it infuriates me. If your hours say open till 9:30 then stay open and serve and accept people until 9:30 if you do not want to open until 9:30 then close at 9 but its a very slippery slope in youre playing a very dangerous game with your business and people will stop coming in late which will affect your bottom line. Youve lost me in a few other people that have told about this as customers. I used to go there four to five times a month usually going on dates or just meeting business lunches and I would spend anywhere between $400 to a month there. Obviously they dont need the money... So sad as the food is delicious but unfortunately Im a busy person and and dont get to eat until I take care of my customers because business is very important to me that I put myself last and I expect when they say that they will be open to be open and ready to serve customers just as I am ready to serve my customers. Aside from that yes the food is good service is pretty decent for what you would get at a sushi place anyway but never ask somebody if theyre going to eat fast when theyre about to spend hard earned money.

Ive been going for years now! This place is always top notch! Their sushi and specialty rolls are so different from the norm yet way better than the rest. Iv tasted many dishes from the menu and the shrimp Pad Thai is amazing . The Cowboy roll is not your typical sushi roll bit its life changing! Always fresh and yummy. Great prices and great service. Full Liquor bar and a really nice cocktail list. I make it a priority to go at least once a week or two.

My wife and I decided to try this place out and were very happy we did. The Pad Thai was the best Ive had since living in California and the ginger dressing with its hint of peanuts was so good I wanted to lick the bowl. The atmosphere was nice as was the staff. We highly recommend this place. Im not the type to review restaurants or really anything, this may be my second time doing so. Its a little hidden but worth the find. Well back for sure.

Made the trip to St. Augustine with my boyfriend recently and made the wrong decision to stop here for a place to eat. We got seated in the middle of the restaurant, which is very cramped, and felt like we were getting stared at the entire time. Got bumped into. The food was okay, but it tasted cheap. It could be really good, but it just falls short.

Food is good however as a regular take our customer, my food has rarely been ready. I have had to wait for over 30 minutes on a few occasions. Obviously they started to prepare when i got there. Unfortunately we will not be coming back

Food is always great. Sushi is always tasty. Service can be hit or miss but one of the girls is an amazing waitress... I wish I remembered her name to suggest asking for her but youll know her when you see her.

I got the shrimp hibachi and I was very happy. I grade my hibachi places on the shrimp sauce and they get 4 stars! I will be back. To get to a love it they would have to get a little better on the service side.

Authentic Asian, fresh sushi beautifully made before your eyes, if you wish; good list of Japanese beers; and the service is alert without being intrusive. Comfortable atmosphere, family friendly.

The service is good and they have reasonable size pieces of sushi, not paper thin. Nothing is worse than receiving sushi that you can see through. This place wont disappoint.

This place is an awesome Japanese and Thai restaurant. The food is consistently good. Never a wait, which is too bad. No wonder the best restaurants are at the beach.
