About us
Nuestra conexión con Hawái y nuestro profundo aprecio por el océano juegan un papel importante en nuestra capacidad de crear auténtico sushi japonés. Con experiencia en pesca, poseemos conocimientos valiosos sobre cómo obtener proteínas silvestres capturadas localmente, lo que garantiza el más alto nivel de frescura en nuestra oferta de sushi. Incluso cuando existen desafíos en el abastecimiento de pescado, nuestro compromiso con las prácticas responsables garantiza que proporcionemos constantemente productos del mar de la mejor calidad. Al armonizar estos dos aspectos de nuestra identidad, nuestro objetivo es ofrecer una experiencia de sushi que se destaque.
