Disappointing Gyudon Bowl
I came here to grab a quick rice bowl for lunch. Unfortunately, the beef in the gyudon bowl was of very low quality, effectively all fat. This did not sit well in my stomach.

Good Hand Roll, Tight Space
I had lunch with a couple of other people. There were many good options, but to pick from everything, it's best to arrive when they open. I ordered a hand roll and a teriyaki salmon bowl, and we shared the special roll. I enjoyed the hand roll the most and also liked the cabbage in the teriyaki bowl. The special roll consisted of shrimp tempura topped with imitation crab, some sauces, and roe. I plan to try another roll on my next visit. The space is quite tight, and you have to go elsewhere to eat. It's a great place to grab something quickly and get back to work.

Fresh Sushi and Clean Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was great! They serve huge and fresh sushi rolls. I tried a classic roll for $7 and special rolls for $10. The place is also nice and clean.

Delicious food, get there early!
My experience at the restaurant was great! I ate the food faster than I could take a pic. I recommend getting there early because lots of stuff are bought out towards the end of lunch time. The food was so good that it disappeared quickly, and I wish I had arrived sooner to try more. It's definitely worth getting there early to ensure you get the best selection.

Loved Tenmatsu, Miss it!
I LOVE Tenmatsu! I miss it so much from the days I worked in FiDi. They have great prepared rolls and bentos. The prices are reasonable for the quality of food you are getting.

Delicious Handrolls - A Must-Try!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic, primarily due to their amazing handrolls. I tried several varieties, including the Salmon, Crispy Salmon Skin, Spicy Tuna, Shrimp, and Vegi Tempura rolls, and they were all incredibly good.

Cozy Spot for Tasty Hand Rolls
My experience at this restaurant was very positive. It's a cozy place with freshly prepared items. I tried the handrolls, which were tasty. I'm looking forward to trying their bentos next.

Delicious Salmon Teriyaki Donburi
I ordered a salmon teriyaki donburi on Ritual around lunch time. It was ready to pick up really quickly. This is a small grab-pay-and-go place. It can get pretty crowded, so ordering ahead is a good idea. The salmon teriyaki donburi is so good! I love getting this dish, the salmon is tasty and doesn’t have the fishy smell or taste, the teriyaki sauce glistens on the fish and adds a light sweet taste, the veggies are steamed and seasoned well, the pickled daikon gives a nice crunch, and they give a decent amount of rice and food. It’s pretty filling! I would recommend this place if you want fast to-go Japanese food.
