The food definitely has potential to be great. It was pretty good but not exactly hot and fresh as I had expected, but delicious. Possibly the biggest health code violation was finding some sort of yarn in the cheese as pictured, let me get that out of the way now. We had a party of 8 and we were seated quickly and the food came quickly. The real issue was the not quite up to par service. It took a bit longer than I would have liked to be attended to but no big deal. We would have appreciated much more attention when it came to refills and our request for shredded cheese had to be repeated a second time before it was fulfilled. I believe we all agreed that the staff seemed uninterested. The chairs were also uncomfortable for full grown adults. Other than that, I would definitely give it another try to see if it goes better.

I’ve read reviews on how good their sushi is, so I finally got by to try it… That was possibly the best sushi I’ve had in town. Tried the baked salmon roll and the fire n ice roll. What did it was the freshness; it was over the top. The presentation was 5-star. The food even smelled fresh and colorful. And they have a large selection to choose from. Their sushi, the service and the sushi chef…all a hit! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Decided to stop here before continuing our road trip and this had many good reviews so we decided to try it. We originally stopped for the sushi but was told that they don't serve them til 5pm and we arrived just after 3 🙃 Bur the employees were super friendly, and the place was nice and clean The food on the other hand, me and my sister did not like them very much. The chips and queso was delicious but the two entrees we chose we were not a big fan of. There were too many different tastes coming from just one dish and the corn (and I'm so sorry to say this) tasted like armpit 🤮 Also, I didn't even touch the other taco and they still charged me for both.

Ordered a taco salad. It wasn't bad, just not great. I ordered it with shrimp and the shrimp was delicious. The rest of the salad was a little boring. Service was pleasant and they kept our drinks full. Atmosphere is cute though from the outside it looks a tiny bit sketchy. Don't be put off by the outside not being perfect. I would definitely give it a second try when I am in town. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $20–30 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Taco Salad

The food was very pretty. I enjoyed my meal. There was nothing wrong with what I was served. The taste was just nothing phenomenal. It was good just not delicious. I will go back though bc I want to try the sushi. Really cool that they specialize in tacos and sushi. Just a side note. I did notice on the door that they don't serve sushi on Mondays. So heads up if that's what you going for. Our server Taylor was really great. She was busy but I still felt like a priority. Great place to stop if you're looking for something a little different.

Came to Florence for a work conference with a LARGE group, much larger than anticipated and the staff took awesome care of us. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was welcoming. The street corn on the cob was one of the highlights of my meal along side the Korean inspired taco. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner

Staff is always friendly. Best spot to get sushi 🍣 or authentic Mexican cuisine. It’s not the largest restaurant so when they are busy it can be a wait for a table, but worth it.
The dip trio was okay. Queso was warm and melty. Guac coulda used lime & salt; medium salsa was actually rather hot. Margaritas were strong. Tacos were ok; not bad, just not outstanding. Next time, we'll get the sushi instead. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

This place was a phenomenal hidden gem with the perfect food combo of Mexican and sushi!! Our experience at the bar was top notch, mostly due to the bartender Danny. The cocktail list is fantastic if tequila and mezcal are what you’re into. We would have tried everything on the menu if our appetites allowed. The Rising sun was our favorite taco. The tongue burner and fire & ice sushi rolls we would get again. More cocktails to try and laughs to be had. Cheers 🍻

This place hits different. The food was so good. Everything was great which is rare because usually there's at least one thing that could be better. Definitely a cool vibe, this place is gorgeous and the staff are super responsive and friendly. I'll be back.
