You can’t reserve, but they have a great system. You can leave your number / name and they’ll shoot you a text when you’re soon to be seated. Great to go be able to sit somewhere else nearby while you wait for your table.We were seated at the bar, very helpful and friendly staff.The sushi itself was amazing. They had a tasting menu with a lot of smaller options, would definitely recommend!!Best part, it’s a ‘no tipping establishment’. Prices you see are what they are, fantastic. - Tito
