We had a wonderful dinner to celebrate our daughter's graduation. Everything was excellent. It seems Scott's isn't quite as spendy as some other local restaurants. Portions are generous, you gets delicious garlic focaccia bread with your meal, and the ambiance is lovely.

Our daughter's birthday celebration at Katana was lovely! We ordered a variety of appetizers, specialty rolls, entrees, cocktails (including N/A) and everything was delicious. Some of us were not experienced sushi eaters and the staff was great in educating us on what things were. They also gave a complimentary dessert to the birthday girl! A great time!
