I had the sushi here, but they are have what seems to be popular in Jacksonville-the restaurant that combines Hibachi grill and a sushi bar. We sat in a booth, one of four, as the other seating options were around the bar or at the Hibachi tables. Because I am from New York City, I have a bit of spoiledness to my palate, but basically the sushi worse than any subpar sushi restaurant in New York. To Jacksonville standards, the sushi was okay. The fish was not very fresh, they use the parts that real Japanese sushi chefs would consider leftovers and throw away. This includes the red part of the yellow tail, or the boney parts of the eel. The seaweed is ordinary, not very refined, and the rice is not too flavorful, but again okay considering it is not exactly in a food capital of the world. The service, however, was great. Very attentive waiter. My boyfriend had the hibachi which was better than the popular chain Wasabi in St. John's Town Center, he told me.
Pros: easy parking, friendly staff constantly filled out water
Cons: strange ambience, lack of freshness, food came out at very different times, forgot the salad and sauce we requested
