Needs improvement

Didn’t have many vegan options when I went.
They made me some fresh avocado sushi that was okay and have homemade wasabi

Pros: Wasabi

Vegan-friendly but planet-unfriendly

The kind proprietor of this place says she herself is vegan, and was happy to point out for us which items were vegan (of which there were 6 or 7). Everything we had was tasty.

There’s just one problem: everything is prepackaged in copious plastic, even for those dining in. We were hoping we could order fresh ones and use our own containers to avoid the plastic, but they just gave us the plastic-packaged ones anyway.

Two things could be done to make a massive improvement in the ecological footprint here:

1. Offer unpackaged items for people who dine in or bring their own containers.

2. For those who actually need take-away containers, provide more eco-friendly ones, such as those made from recycled cardboard or compostable vegetable starches.

If enough of us politely make these suggestions, perhaps they will take them up.

Pros: Good vegan options

Cons: Way too much plastic

Very vegan friendly

The woman told us she was vegan, and made a bunch of vegan sushi for us especially.

Great sushi!

Full of Sushi, and a lot of them are vegan. Ask for, the very nice Lady will help you. Miso soup should be vegan, too. Ant it was so delicious! Had two different Sushi rolls, a Miso soup and somekind of Rice with something Fried at the outside. Very tasty!

Pros: More than 5 diffent vegan sushi rolls.

Cons: Sometimes some stuff is sold out early
