So this is my 2nd time visiting this place, and again it was amazing. The food is fresh, delicious and flavorful. I came on a Saturday afternoon there was a lot of people. The yakisoba was delicious and heavy portion. Champon noodle was so good. The employees are nice and I appreciated that. As far as the price, its reasonable price.

Ive been multiple times and their food and service were always consistent. One of the best restaurants in Sacramento. It also has a good location with enough parking space even during a weeknight. My goto sushi place in town.
