Amazing sushi as well as all of the dishes. If you get the burger without the bun it comes with a rice ball that is flavored with something that makes me never want to go back to buns. So good!

Best sandwiches in town and best use of pig around. If you're gf, they will throw the pile of BBQ pulled pork and all the fixings on a pile of fries. Obviously not a great vegan option.

The beer is nationally award winning. If you have kids there is a part of the restaurant where they are genuinely welcome. The burgers are one of my favorites and a GF bun is available.
