It's been crazy trying to figure out when it's going to be busy. Some days we think it'll be slow then right before closing a starving rush of people will come in, or it will be steady all day, or other times, it's completely slow all day.

Our opening day Friday, September 30th was extremely busy. A lot of friends stopped by to eat and we were so packed there were people waiting in line out the door. We gave away a lot of free food as tasters that night. We were literally 2 hours behind in tickets. So that weekend we hired 2 people - one sushi helper and one kitchen helper.

We're still playing with the menu and perfecting it before the Grand Opening, which is still at an undetermined date. But I think it will be in November.
