• "Good sushi, bad people. I came inside to buy some takeaway with my dog, not knowing that dogs are not allowed inside, and I was about to ask if I could come in with it... before I couldn't even finish my question a woman from behind the counter started shouting at me saying that dogs were not allowed. Very rude."
