You would think by the crowds in this place it was the only sushi place in the whole city of Pittsburgh. I went in with good expectations of this place considering it is always crowded.....boy was I wrong!!!\n\nFirst off the service at this place is horrible. This is mostly a 22-28 yr old staffed place. The hostess basically laughed at me when I said we did not have a reservation, offered us to have a drink at the bar, and then said \"but you cannot stand around in this area here around the door it is getting too crowded so either the bar or maybe wait outside\" ...seriously you don't tell a customer that. \n\nWe just wanted sushi anyways, so we sat at the sushi bar and ordered some rolls and sashimi. Now maybe I am spoiled from living on the west coast for so long now that I am used to Asians (usually Japanese..go figure) working and making my sushi. There were 3 white guys about 25 yrs old making my rolls for me, not to say they cannot do it as well as anyone else, but the rolls were seriously not that great.  Hell I did not even see an Asian person working at the tables either, they were mostly Mexican guys. \n\nSorry, I know most of the reviews are raving about how good this place is, but to me it seems pretty pricey for what you get and the food is not all that. I can only speak for the sushi...maybe the dinners at the tables are better. To sum it up this is mostly an over priced sushi bar that is a good place to hang out and have drinks with friends and maybe hit on some groups of women out for dinner.
