Food scene
The owner purveys the best sushi, ramen and green tea creme brulee you will ever have! He hails from the Namba neighborhood of Osaka, was a sushi chef in NYC, Miami and decided to settle in Naples. We are so fortunate! There can be quite a wait and some fish and dishes sell out early. He travels on Tuesdays and Thursdays to Miami to buy fish so we recommend going on Wednesdays or Fridays-but any night is unbelievable. The staff is gracious and fun.

Take trolley, bus, car (10 miles south), visit the Naples Pier and the gracious streets of 5th and 3rd Avenues.
