Make your special someone feel even more special with a visit to this hidden gem. The service is awesome ("private booth"), the food is amazing (try the wasabi octopus), and make sure to get plenty of sake. It is a bit noisy, depending on your neighbors, but still very cozy for two to enjoy a special night.

Don't go here if you expect the traditional sushi or maki but if you want to experience what real Japanese cuisine is all about, this nicely designed restaurant is definitely the right place.
