Inspection summary

5 of 7 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 0 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Protecting food from contamination, Food temperature control and Cleaning and sanitizing.

The last 5 inspections in a row found no infractions. Recent inspections have recorded fewer infractions than earlier ones, so the record is improving.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

    This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

    Recorded once on March 29, 2023. For example: Food is handled in a sanitary manner and is not subject to contamination.

  • Food temperature controlHigher risk

    Bacteria multiply fastest between about 4 °C and 60 °C (40 °F to 140 °F). Inspectors check that cold food stays cold, hot food stays hot, cooked food is cooled quickly, and that staff have accurate thermometers. Temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning, so these are treated as critical findings.

    Recorded once on March 29, 2023. For example: Potentially hazardous food is at a hot holding temperature that keeps it safe to eat.

  • Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

    Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.

    Recorded once on March 29, 2023. For example: All equipment, food contact surfaces, utensils, dishes & glasses used on the premises are washed and sanitized in a manner that removes contamination.

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.

    Recorded 4 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 9, 2024. For example: An operator of a food service establishment must develop, maintain, and follow written procedures to ensure that a health hazard does not occur in the operation of the establishment.

    Amazing & friendly staff!! very delicious sushi — not only affordable but refreshing ingredients! They are generous with the amount of filling in sushi rolls, and complimentary green tea! Two of us shared a bento box with beef teriyaki on rice (with AMAZING dumpling!) and an order chicken teriyaki with California rolls. Yum!

    Walked around to get change, refill my Compass card and leave.. this place caught my eye and the music was very calm, staff very welcoming. I’m eating good sushi made by good people by the water. It’s raining, but I don’t care. I ordered a Cooked Beef Teriyaki roll to stay, and then a Kimchi Tofu Udon because it’s raining. This is the place you walk in and order anything and it’ll be good. They’re budget friendly too, they’ve got things like Shin ramen among others for $6 and for $10, you get a bonus California roll. Sit down facing the window and enjoy the Jazz music and people walking by. Don’t eat in a rush and don’t forget to tip! Enjoy your meal.

    I got the teriyaki beef Bento box, delicious sushi, gyoza, and plenty of tasty beef! This place is small but it's conveniently located by the Sea bus. I highly recommend it! Friendly staff and a nice small cozy restaurant.

    A small sushi spot near the Seabus station run by a kind Korean couple. I grabbed some salmon sashimi to-go and enjoyed it at the nearby park while looking out at the ocean 🌊 it honestly felt like I had everything 🥹 The salmon is thick, fresh, and so satisfying with every bite. Among the nearby sushi places, their salmon nigiri might be the best, especially for the price. They also offer both indoor and outdoor seating, so I definitely recommend taking your time and enjoying the experience here. Highly recommend if you’re looking for quality sushi with a cozy, local vibe 😊

    Cute little Sushi Place. I got the Crunch Roll and Tempura. Very tasty and pretty decent for it’s price. Staff is friendly and nice. The restaurant is kinda small but it’s okay. I just noticed that the sushi stucks on the paper plate. Hoping they use a nonstick disposable plates if that would be possible to avoid sticking. Overall the experience is good. A must try !
