Very good, have always been hesitant to try this spot and I am disappointed it took me this long. Will definitely be back. Walawala roll was delicious.

Our waitress tonight was amazing. I never caught her name but she was super sweat and gave us great service. Food was priced well and came out fast. If we are ever in the area again we will come back.

This is the only place I can find in the area that still serves soft shell crab. There's is lightly breaded and just.. delicious. They have a huge sushi menu with pictures. I love that I can actually see what it looks like before I order it. Everything we've ever ordered has been really good. Highly recommend the Sirloin and shrimp hibachi. A As far as service... there's usually only one lady working tables, checks, AND the phone. People who are in a hurry don't see or understand this. Give her a break. Order a pot of tea and chill. It's not fast food.

The food here is some of the best! The people that work here are amazing and so friendly. The prices are great and the amount of food you get, you will definitely get full and your money’s worth! I eat here at least 4 times a month and the wait time for your pickup order is only 15 minutes. You can’t beat this place for really good food and service. Their Hibachi is my favorite.

Me and my girl just ate here. Between me and her we have probably eaten at 20 sushi restaurants from Tennessee to Arizona. This place is easily in my top 5. Service was polite and quick (quick taking into account the sushi is made to order and not sitting out on ice in the back). The food was all top notch. Prices are insanely fair for the quality you get. Compared to sushi places in Chattanooga. Atmosphere is peaceful but lively. Overall this place is worth going to. Will be a repeat eater. (We had "The love boat" with the "pirate roll" 80 meal for 2 people which at other places would have been closer to 100.)

Always enjoy the food...especially the rolls. I had the Bento Box this day... the shrimp were delicious. The staff is always very nice!

Easily a favorite spot to eat in the little town of Dunlap. Servers are always friendly and the food is always fresh.

This was my first visit and I was very impressed to have such a wonderful addition to our small town. The food was amazing and deliciously prepared. We were surprised when the bill came at how affordable our meal had been. I highly recommend stopping in and taking the time to enjoy a bento box.
