You gotta get out more. I wouldn't touch their food with someone else's fork.

Admittedly, I know people who work there that told me the sanitary conditions are low. Fish left out to room temp, sewage leaking in basement next to cooler and a box of panko that's in said basement that mice love and that they bread the rolls in.

Not to mention the fact that the owner runs a sweatshop with his immigrant employees. I've also heard they are part of the Chinese police station network that tries to control Chinese behavior/pressure Chinese nationals on US soil.

The food is mediocre. I know it's not the city but try the sushi at Willys Steakhouse in Shrewsbury. Kenzo trained most of the sushi chefs in MA and his sushi is impeccable. Old school with class.

Somebody told me the same exact line about mice rolling in a box of panko but that one was about an Italian restaurant on the Blvd, I am trying to remember who told me that. I know from the owner they have a good deal on sushi grade fish they exclusively get shipped he keeps a secret like other places with good fish, and I can tell from the taste with my hyperosmia especially with the salmon and tuna.

Someone recommended me somewhere else to try sushi in Shrewsbury but I will try willies too, never went back there after I had a sun stroke and was rushed to the hospital when I was a kid.

And oh yeah, I never imagined Mr. Wang being a communist sympathizer but with how awkwardly nice he is when he see's me in I can see it lmao. Commie GHOSTS that DON'T know they're DEAD!

His daughter Emily got drunk one night at a local bar and divulged what they really thought of "stupid, lazy, Americans" was quite an eye opener.

As for the sweat shop, he owns an apartment building behind the sushi bar. His employees (not sure if illegal or not but who cares) get rent taken out of their pay. They're left with virtually nothing after paying expenses to Mr. Wang. It's grimy and taking advantage of people trying to get a new opportunity.
