Super delicious food, great service, and reasonable prices. Shattuck roll, sake toro, and seafood salad were all soooo yummy and all the ingredients seemed very fresh. I think this might be my new favorite spot in Berkeley for sushi. I will definitely be coming back!" — Kristina, Google Review "Excellent sushi and a really nice family who run the business. We go here at least once a week and love it!" — Josh, Google Review WHAT'S COOKING AT THE FARMER'S MARKET? "Organic" can be a confusing term; it's a great way for many farmers to advertise their growing practices but just because someone doesn't have a certification doesn't mean that they don't have great growing practices. If you're curious about how something is grown just ask the person selling it, that's one of the perks of shopping at a farmers' market after all!
