North Park sushi despite the skepticism
“I'm 5 months over due in writing this review! Anyways here it goes. I've been passing by this place for quite some time, pretty much every week and never had the time to try it out. So a few months back Usually people are a bit skeptical about eating sushi around the North Park/South Park area, but we figured why not give it a shot. Ed is a the bomb! MAde some delicious New Zealand tuna for us!!”
