What people say, in short
Sushi Ann draws recommendations for omakase, with one regular particularly praising the rice and preferring its smaller cuts of fish. Another visitor likes the quiet, old-school feel of a nigiri-focused meal. Not everyone is persuaded: two diners question the experience or value, and a fan prefers fewer seared pieces. This is a preference-sensitive choice rather than broad agreement on every preparation.
