Asked for the chefs choice of sushi and he just gave us tuna, salmon and hamachi. Disappointing. Though the fish was excellent.

Enjoyed a quiet evening with a friend of mine. Easily the best sushi in the city. Had the Blue Ribbon roll and fried oyster. Delicious! Ended the night with dessert and some plum wine, which I would highly recommend. Great location.

Service was terrible. We had a reservation and they sat us by the bar while everyone else was in the dining room. Brought food we didn’t order but did agree to take it off the menu.
