  Dangerously bad food but strangely polite service. My wife and I went here for sushi.
  The salmon roe eggs were hard and chewy, like they sat out for a few days, the spicy tuna rolls had something crunchy in them which even the wait staff was puzzled about, ??? and the avacado was old and disgusting, the seaweed salad and the raw salmon were both on the dry side....needless to say, sushi MUST be extremely fresh which this was not. Unusual to have so many bad things served.
  The waitress agreed that these items were unacceptable and took them away and off the bill.
  
  Sushi is an extremely risky food unless extreme caution is used in prep. This place is way too risky.
  
  Never had this problem in the past, maybe a new owner or new sushi person.
  
  Highly recommend that you don't eat there.

  Unbelievable sushi. We went for the Wednesday buffet, and the rolls were of a wide variety, superior quality and huge size. You are only allowed to order three rolls at once and you must pay for any food you don't finish, but the tastiness of the sushi let's you power through any remaining pieces.
  
  The only reason I give Ginza four stars is because out server was pretty lax. I had to flag her down a few times because we were in a corner and the restaurant was almost empty (we were there at 3:30) but I think if you come during typical dinner hours the service would probably be more attentive.

  Good food and excellent service.  The ambiance in the restaurant would only be enhanced if the chefs all spoke English.  The sushi could be better, but it is still very tasty; excellent for your occasional sushi eater and for the surrounding area.

  BYOB! I've had good experiences here so far.  I highly recommend the good time roll for novice sushi eaters.  The special eel roll is excellent.  I tend not to get any sushi that's not on the specials menu, so I don't know anything about those.  I've had hibachi here twice (once with steak and another with lobster).  I thought the food was very good and worth the price.  The portion size was pretty good too.

  Do NOT get sushi here.  We went shortly after they opened and were badly disappointed.  The Miso soup tasted like it was from a can, and the sushi like it was from a supermarket.  If you want Sushi do yourself a favor and walk a few storefronts down to Emerald Garden, which sports a sushi bar and a full-time sushi chef.
  
  Note: I realize that rating a Japanese steakhouse on their sushi is a little unfair, but that's all I've eaten there, and it left a bad enough impression that we haven't been back.  If and when we return to try out their steak offering I'll update my review accordingly.
