Loved their fresh food and friendly service. We tried their butter squid, torched salmon, fire & white dragon rolls, and loved all of them. Highly recommended if you are looking for a sushi place near Ajax.

Absolutely fantastic fresh food. My favourite sushi place. The staff, chefs and owners are amazing . We have a few food restrictions and they were able to come up with a platter that worked for us. I’m so impressed. Can’t wait to come again

A quaint little spot in the Pickering Village courtyard with some very clever tapas spins on Korean and other delicious Asian-inspired foods. Great sushi (pressed and otherwise), excellent spring rolls - and don’t sleep on the kimchi & bulgogi poutine - so good!

Nice take out experience. Quality was good. However portions were quite small. Amount of fish was inadequate compared to comparable sushi places in the GTA. The slices on the sushi were very very thin. Display of sushi tray was esthetic, lots of filler garnishes. Unfortunately my husband and I are still hungry.

This is the best sushi I have ever tasted by far, and I have been visiting many sushi restaurants over the years. The food was beyond satisfying and tasty, and their service was quick and very welcoming:) If you’re ever in the Durham area and love sushi, this will be the place to go😊 I highly recommend their pressed sushi, I had both the salmon and unagi one, both were exquisite! I’d give more stars if I could. Definitely will be back very soon!!

This place was amazing and we really enjoyed the food, the staff and the vibe. We got the Veggie Green Dragon Roll! Overall we would give this a 4/5 for portion, 5/5 for taste and 5/5 for presentation. For portion we are giving it a 4/5 just case we wanted more, but nothing wrong with the size they gave. For taste, no complaints this was made so well and delicious. The ingredients were all fresh and awesome to taste and the way they wrapped the avocado over the sushi was probably the best use and made it easier to eat. Finally for presentation, it was simply beautiful, and like i said the use of ingredients and quality of ingredients tied in with their skill was awesome and we loved it!

After seeing all the great reviews I decided to give this place a shot. It’s located right inside Pickering village for those who might get lost. The appetizers were all very good! The gyoza was the highlight of the apps. The sushi itself is so soft and really melts in your mouth. The salmon lover set is a must if you enjoy salmon. The atmosphere is great and the staff are very friendly. I’ll for sure return
