  • This used to be a wonderful sushi restaurant with a very loyal following but the owners have opened a number of other restaurants/business opportunities and have spread themselves too thin. Food has gone downhill and the service is very poor - slow and lots of mistakes. Very sad as it used to be one of our favourites spots.

  • This is by far the worst sushi we have ever eaten, and we have even tempted fate at kisha popo aka kisha poo poo. The sashimi came warm and tasted like the tuna steaks you can buy at costco. My spicy tuna roll clearly had no hot sauce yet they still claimed it did. The sushi looked like it was cut by a monkey with a dull spoon, but they insist the chef has 15 years experience. We were the only people in this restaurant at 9:00 on a Saturday night. This should have been our first clue but hey after a 2 hour ferry ride we were hungry. After almost coming to blows with the owner for insulting my wife a nice older lady came out and fixed the bill and we left.

  • Decent sushi, don't go during all you can eat specials as the rice tastes stale, dry, and old.

  • Order: Variety of sushi.
