  • Comforting Post-Beach Dining

    A hot bowl of miso and fresh rolls provide comforting relief and warmth after outdoor walks along nearby Brighton beach.

    Had the California roll with a bowl of Miso which was super comforting after a long walk along Brighton beach.

  • Abundant Platters for Group Catch-Ups

    Multi-course arrangements like the salmon platter create satisfying shared lunch experiences for groups relaxing together outdoors.

    We chose the Salmon Platter which had a combination of salmon sashimi, prawn and salmon sushi rolls wit avocado, salmon roses, and we switched the salmon nigiri for Aburi salmon. It was all presented beautifully and tasted fresh and delicious!

  • Chicken Katsu Bento Box

    The chicken katsu is absolutely delicious and always leaves me wanting more. It's perfectly crispy and the chicken is never thick or tough. The katsu bento box also comes with rice, and a leaf salad with the most delicious dressing ever.

  • Katsu Chicken Curry

    the katsu chicken curry portion was generous, I had to get a to go box because I couldn't finish it all but it was too delicious to waste.
