We drive all the way across town, past many many other sushi places to eat here. We've been doing so for almost 20 years. Partly nostalgia, but I gotta say its hard to beat. Affordable. Yummy.

If we have a dive bar, this is it. I love it for watching the game. Its rarely crowded. There's always quirky music. On Thursdays you can often find Ralph Carney (Tom Waits) playing.
