“ My experience at this dining establishment was nothing less than marvelous. A hidden gem within the confines of fast food giants, it is like coming home after a rainy day at work. The food excquisite. ”
“ It was late, Sayori was the closest Asian, we did not expect much from strip mall sushi. We were Completely Surprised! The food was great, the atmosphere is from the early 2000s, but who cares. They are not strictly Japanese, with that, and Chinese dishes on the menu. The sushi was fresh, and good portions. Try the salmon and ika for sure. The vegetarian in our party go the fried rice and veg tempura roll, both really good. The service is great. Must visit. ”
“ Yesterday my cousin and I visited this place for the first time and I must say we were very impressed by the decor, service and delicious food. Simson was our waiter who was so attentive, friendly and quick with the service. All of the appetizers and entrees was so fresh and tasty. For apps we had the shumai and gyoza pork dumplings. For entree we had crunchy tuna and crab rolls, a volcano roll, shrimp tail roll, seafood fried rice and general Tso chicken. The interior of the restaurant was a cultural Japanese ambience from the furniture, art, and seating style. We will definitely be visiting this place again. The food and service is excellent. ”
