In their words

“Tasty meal, great service & atmosphere.”Google review
“My partner loved the sushi, and my chicken and fried rice were so flavorful.”Google review
“I ordered a Poke Bowl, a Salmon roll and Miso soup.”Google review

Red lanterns and anime

One reviewer describes the room as cosy, with red lanterns and calligraphy on the walls and, all over the place, posters of classic anime: One Piece, Gintama, Slam Dunk. Another had been meaning to come for a while and, not being a sushi eater, found the other options and a kani salad instead.

Omakase is the thing people write about most, and they reserve it. Nigiri, takoyaki and chicken hibachi follow. A visitor left a note on the listing: “BEST SUSHI IN RVA”. Read it there and decide for yourself.

Questions we get on the phone

What Richmond says

Omakase that reviewers reserve, a cosy room, and a menu with room for people who do not eat sushi. Read the reviews on Google rather than take our word for it.
