I tried their roll combo for $19. It includes miso soup with your choice from a select lunch menu for three, 4-piece rolls. The miso soup was good, but I’m just not a miso soup person in general lol. The combo was delightful and I still ordered my usual roll I order anywhere - the deep fried Philly! Not sure what sauce they use but it has a slight sweetness that pairs great with the salmon and cream cheese!! Service was just ok. ### gabbie_d27 — 5.0/5 · Apr 25, 2025 Amazing sushi for an incredibly reasonable price! They do not skimp out on the fish! I ordered the finding Nemo roll, and the salmon and tuna were nice, thick cuts.
