text: There is certainly a dearth of sushi places in Downtown Phoenix I had to find a lunch place in a confined radius and I wanted sushi so this is the most promising place I came up withnnLet me start by saying the atmosphere is excellent It has a very trendy upscale vibe to it The place bleeds gentrification They clearly put a lot of effort into the decornnThe service was also good and I was surprised at the servers ability to memorize my order of two rolls a sashimi and several nigiri As a restaurant this place is really not badnnAs a sushi bar however this place needs some worknnThe first thing you will notice is how incredibly limited their selection is I was really disappointed they do not have uni and there were a few other glaring omissions no red snapper striped bass etc Clearly they are not trying to appeal to those who are serious about sushinnThey did have a couple extra varieties of tuna in that were not on the menu so that was nicennAbout half way through the meal I noticed that I did not have any miso soup Of course I did not order any but I guess I just assumed that when you order sushi they just give you a bowl of miso soup With how much they charge there for a light meal for two people including tip you would think they could just throw in a small bowl of cheap soup rightnnThe rolls were OK I guess Nothing special The fish tasted fresh enough no complaints therennThis place is definitely more about presentation than sushi and apparently presentation costs a lot
