Delicious sushi specials and grilled options! Cute atmosphere, but kinda small so make sure to come during a quieter time. Next time I'll have to try the baked goods they make...

Yes!!!!! I'll say it again for the people in the back- yyyyaaaaeeeesaassssss! So cute, so good! Yeeeaaaassss! It's that time of the year again where restaurant week reigns supreme, and this time they didn't miss! I had their restaurant week special which was a salmon box. Everything was perfect, especially the salmon belly, grilled salmon and salmon sashimi! Everything was fresh tasty and out of this world. Despite this location doubling as a bakery, they know how to make sushi and prepare wonderful pastries. The matcha cheesecake was superb with plenty of fresh matcha powder on top and mung beans on the bottom. This was easily my favorite matcha desert ever! While they don't have indoor seating, I saw two small tables outside. I'll be going back and happy freaking restaurant week!

Cozy, clean atmosphere. Good food and delicious desserts! Very nice neighborhood restaurant. I like their Poke bowl, Salmon teriyaki set, some happy hour menus. Their desserts are superb. Everything is tasty without feeling sugar heavy. Highly recommend!! Family friendly, street parking only. Went back to my favorite restaurant. We had Spicy poke bowl, curry, Kimono roll and desserts. Spicy poke bowl was not spicy enough for my taste but it was good because I can taste each ingredients. It was not too saucy nor salty like other places that serve poke. Really good. Curry is also very good here. It comes with a small salad and potato salad. One of my favorite dessert is Yuzu panna cotta which has a delicate flavor with a hint of yuzu. Not too heavy.

Their sushi is good! Ocean Platter is made fresh upon our order. Refreshing rolls, we had the White Emperor rolls. Then the desserts - yuzu panna cotta, strawberry mochi - all light and just right. New favorite place for desserts in town.

I've only ordered the pastries from Setsuko at Modern Japanese Cuisine through Uber eats. Packaging was well done and on time. If you are used with Fuji Bakery and Tokara maybe this place will disappoint you. I believe they have a chance to improve because some items were really well executed such as the cheesecake and yuzu panacotta. Meanwhile the custard cream, flourless cake and mochi were flavorless and mochi with totally bad texture. I would still check the sushi place because the pictures are promising.

Originally went in to get desserts but the food menu was too tempting. Slid in a minute before happy hour ended, very nice of them to give us the happy hour deals. Got an assorted sashimi salad with fresh fish and a savory dressing on it, 3pc hamachi carpaccio with some yuzu was very refreshing, and the mini salmon Don had a decent amount of fresh salmon along with warm rice. In the end treated ourselves with salmon Toro nigiri, which was phenomenally buttery and rich. Got desserts: rich creamy custard pudding with a delicious caramel sauce, and a matcha tiramisu with azuki on the bottom. Also got a strawberry mochi daifuku to go, which was devoured in an instant. Will definitely come again! Cute restaurant vibes and good staff. However definitely understaffed and service was a bit slow.

Lovely store and employees! Got some great suggestions for bentos for the family. The food was delicious and nutritious! They also sell some goods like bags and cups which were very cute.

We came here right after lunch and the owner was prepping for dinner time. She was wonderful and allowed us to buy pastries. Very nice space, great desserts, and wonderful customer service.
