I like the food here no complaints about that but this weekend when I came to collect a pickup order, while I was standing there waiting for them to finish my order I noticed that the lady preparing the sushi was sick. I stood there for about 5 minutes and in that time this woman could not stop coughing and her nose was running. She was trying really hard to keep it in but she would still coughing and wiping her nose with her wrist. She was wearing a mask and gloves but this did not look like a cold, more like a flu. When you are preparing food for people this is the day you stay home instead of going to work. 2 days later my family is now all sick with a sore throat and coughing like the cook, and even though it is not possible to know for sure if that is where we got the flu the fact remains if you have a cough and runny nose then you should not be preparing food especially raw uncooked food.

Thank you for sharing your concern, and we're sorry to hear your family has been unwell — we hope everyone is feeling better soon.
After looking into this, we believe we may be able to explain what you observed. One of our long-term staff members has rhinitis, a chronic nasal condition that causes frequent sneezing and a runny nose. She always wears a mask and gloves while preparing food — not because she is unwell, but as part of managing her condition and maintaining our hygiene standards. She was not sick and had no fever or flu symptoms.
We completely understand how this could look concerning from the outside, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Food safety is something we take very seriously, and we would never allow a sick employee to prepare food. If you'd like to talk through this further, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly — we'd love the chance to clear this up in person.
The sushi here is really good. Fresh fish and avocado, tight rolls, amazing kamikaze, well cooked and mixed rice… As a sushi chef and a owner of my former sushi restaurant, giving its sushi 5/5. (foodsup Rocky Li)
