We sat outside for lunch and the bartender was both the bartender and our waiter which meant I had to walk back inside to get the refills we were promised 10 min later. But I will be back and just hope that this was a one off.4/29/2013 12:00:00 AMsoniathe sushi was delicious, the the waitstaff was on point. my husband and I were there to celebrate our anniversary.
