We visit Oyama regularly. They have a large variety of different sushi rolls and the prices are very reasonable. The Hawaii Roll is very tasty and a good deal.

I took a sushi first-timer, and business collegue, here because of another reviewer's comments. Sure enough, Darren was so friendly and helpful -he made the experience a great one.

The owners/sushi chefs (especially Darren) are amongst the friendliest, most customer-service oriented in town with all of the quality and none of the pretension of the pricier Asian eateries. The Kani Salad, along with the Squid... more
