Like the food there, delicious and the price also not too expensive, affordable price, and quite big portion. I ordered the barachiraishi & Saba shioyaki teishoku set, I like the cube cut sashimi very much. The staff also very helpful and polite. Just that we found the table there is too small, and we need to sit quite closely and quite hot. Overall, the food is good. And you no need to queue up like the famous Japanese shop near there. Will surely come back again

Food: 3 / 3 stars Service & Ambience: 1 / 1 star Value: 1 / 1 star We had dinner here with a group of friends. Long queue at nearby Shin Zushi USJ, so we came here instead. I have never eaten at Shin Zushi before, so unable to make any comparison. My wife and I ordered the Barachiraishi Teishoku Set with salmon sashimi and chawanmushi add-ons to share. The price was reasonable, and we were satisfied with the taste. Can't remember how long we waited, but since we were with friends, it was easy to kill time chit-chatting, so it wasn't too noticeable for us whether the service was too slow as some reviews mentioned. Nothing to complain about, so 5 stars.

I come back here often. Food is reasonably priced and good. Staffs are really nice, but service could be slow depending on the amount of customers. I think they're just short-handed.
