Mari, always amazing, is at the top of its game. The chef continues to modify his creations with delicious tweaks. Every mouthful is delicious with all kinds of perfectly blended flavors and textures. The staff are all charming and service is excellent. An altogether delightful experience. For the food and the experience, the cost is surprising reasonable. Five Stars all around.

Food never disappoints. It’s one of the very few places that can perfect the rice in the hot stone-pot. And staff is friendly — I always feel welcome there.

Every side dish was absolutely delicious—thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. The meat quality was outstanding: tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked. You can really taste the difference. The service was warm and attentive, making the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be coming back!
