Lovely restaurant, my husband and I dined in. We were greeted by a hostess and seated quickly. Food was well prepared and hot. Go see for yourself 😀

I really enjoy this place because of the vegetable rolls, but my order was wrong last night as I told them I was allergic to seafood and asked for chicken instead of shrimp in my kazu rice. Didn’t see the mistake until I got home that there was chicken and shrimp in my rice

My Sailor has raved about this place for more than a year and today, I finally got to try one! He bought me the DYNAMITE BURRITO (FRIED) with Shrimp tempura, spicy krab, cream cheese, avocado, asparagus, red onion, bacon bite, shrimp sauce, eel sauce. I will be having this again!

Ordered some late night take out. The 'Super California' roll was super small for the price and mostly avocado and cucumber. The Steak Tataki was super over cooked (it's suppose to still be pink!). And the restaurant put the crispy onions in the my clear soup instead of in a separate container so by the time I got home it was just a congealed mess at the bottom of the bowl. The steak hibachi was okay and despite being over cooked so was the steak tataki but I think for the quality and proportions this place is over priced.

The quality of the food is matched only by the service! I loved how they are also taking precautions to make you feel safe while dining. The servers, staff and chef were so welcoming. The food, ambiance and food eating experience was simply a delight for the senses! THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE SUSHI SPOT! It was simply the most exquisite combination of flavors and textures. I can’t wait to return to try other signature dishes!

A fairly typical sushi establishment in Jacksonville. The dumplings were underwhelming but not inedible. The black tuna tataki was actually pretty decent. The spicy tuna and sweet potato rolls were fairly bland. Overall, not a horrible experience but nothing overwhelmingly memorable.

We had a great experience here. Our waitress recommended different items and we enjoyed everything. We had the salmon avocado roll which was yummy. I had fried rice accommodated to be gluten free and my husband had the spicy beef. The restuarant is small and quaint. I would recommend to others as the food was fresh and service friendly and prompt.

My colleague insisted to try Japanese food tonight and can’t find many good choices in Jacksonville based on reviews & pictures. Kazu Japanese came up with quite high in ranking among yelp, TripAdvisor, best 10 Japanese Restaurant and etc. We ordered a grilled squid, taste ok and really a big squid. It’s fresh and not grilled enough. Miso soups and salads were complimentary, we ordered a sushi & sashimi for two to share and it’s fair quality of food and fresh indeed. I got spoiled with NYC’s Omakase quality and can’t complaint much about the price we paid in here. The best dish for the

This has single handily the fastest sushi this side of the Mississippi. We sat down, order, ate, and paid within 30 minutes. The sushi itself was good, but nothing crazy. All the fish was fresh and not fishy. Some of the rolls were a little bland ( spicy kani and spectrum). The lemon drop was very good; although, the lemons were cut a little thick. Excellent service overall.
