This is without a doubt the highest quality sushi I have ever had, and I've traveled quite extensivley. New York, San Fran, Texas, New Orleans, Seattle...this place beats the best of the best...and its in PASADENA! The quality of the fish is prolific: the marbled fat glistens, the tuna is without fishy odor, the oysters or insipring. I've been going to this place since it was a dive in Monrovia, and now that it has it's rightful place downtown, I'm glad I can stop in and see Kim#1 and Kim#2 every thursday for some albacore, soft shell crab, and even some funny golf stories. Just try it. I've never been disappointed. P.S. - The "Sushi Boat" deals or out of this world!
