About Sticks'n'Sushi

Since 1994 we have served high-quality, fresh, traditional sushi and grilled yakitori sticks, always striving to be the greatest hosts we can.

We hire new fishes with big smiles and small egos. We don't waste our time on colleagues who aren't team players.

People who take their work, but not themselves, too seriously are the ones everybody likes the most. Such attitudes never scared away a guest or annoyed a colleague - it's an attitude we rate highly.

THAT'S US.
