"no spicy tuna
no california roll
TRUST ME"

Go here if you want really fresh sushi without all the frills at an unpretentious spot.

Tonight was my third time here and this time I was served: tuna, white tuna, yellowtail, amberjack, salmon, fluke, bonito, red snapper, scallop, giant clam, orange clam, stripe bass, horse mackerel, toro, black cod, sea urchin, salmon roe, fresh water eel, blue crab roll, toro roll, albacore, kumomoto oysters, abalone, octopus.

The highlights of the evening for me were the kumomoto oysters (always good), stuffed squid (interesting and delicious), scallop (so buttery), horse mackerel (holy cow the only mackerel I have eaten that was this good), black cod (like sex), salmon roe (like little bursts of umami broth), and the blue crab roll (so simple yet so good).

But you know what? You shouldn't go. Because it's so good I don't want everyone to know about my secret spot.
