    I’m new to Japanese food and afraid of squid and other things that look like they moved. I loved this place. They were very understanding, the atmosphere was great, and they had chicken. :)

    They do some modern sushi, but get the classics right too. Go to for sushi, haven’t tried anything else here but still satisfied. Also head to Jenis next door for dessert :D

    The summer and green turtle roll are excellent, if you're anti sushi the beef wrapped asparagus (not sure of name) and chicken teriyaki are delish. Order the TY KU Soju instead of vodka... yum!

    Great little spot for late night sushi and drinks after a show at Red Orchid. Green turtle roll and rock shrimp are exceptional.

    Old Town's Wells St. Corridor stations Kamehachi, a comfortable setting for a quieter lunchbreak. A Kamehachi raw favorite: a huge spicy tuna roll garnished with four kinds of fish roe ($17). Read more

    We normally would advise you get something more exotic than teriyaki chicken - but the teriyaki chicken is just so good. So get it - along with oyster shooters, rolls, sake... in short: come hungry.

    Shishito Peppers are great. Better atmosphere than most sushi spots. Not the best in the city but I go there often given its close.

    Rock Shrimp tempura is great. Creative, nice kick, not too heavy (considering it's Tempura).

    Great first date spot. It's quite enough for conversation, hip enough to impress and priced right.
