My husband and I went to dinner last night to celebrate my B Day. Our waiter offered to order for us. We haven’t ever done this before. He asked what we liked and didn’t like. We were very pleased with all of the selections he ordered for us. Everything was delicious! The fish was some of the best I’ve ever eaten! Will definitely be back!

A few of the items we ordered did not come out when they should have and there was a moment when all we had on the table was a side of rice. The server did not do a good job on recommendations. Such as when looking at cocktails, I mentioned I like them on the sweeter side. He suggested a drink that was spicy and I was unable to finish it. The Food was good but disappointed when a few of our items were forgotten by the sever.

If you get both sushi and an entree, don’t follow their recommendation to have the sushi last. They claim it’s to save your appetite, which doesn’t make any sense

We had reservations. We were seated at a two top to the west of the sushi bar. The table was okay, but lacked the ambience of the main room. The food was excellent, and the service was good. It's a pricey meal, but we love their food.

Our experience was amazing. First of all our guide for the night, Kim, knew the menu and off menu items so well. She was personable, did a great job of listening to what our group was interested in and then she helped guide us through a great tasting experience. There were old favorites and new items that made for a fun adventure and we loved every bit of it. Great food, great staff and a really fun atmosphere. We'll be back!

One of the best sushi experiences I have had away from the coast. The staff worked seamlessly together and Jessica had the perfect recommendations for a shared tasting experience. The wine selection was phenomenal. You can drink great wine for a reasonable price that pairs wonderfully with the menu items. Loved the taro and caviar sushi roll with truffle aioli. Would also recommmend trying the Alaska King Salmon, Alaska Halibut, and the Scallops.

Fabulous anniversary dinner!! Service was amazing! Our waiter gave delicious recommendations and was super friendly and accommodating all night. Food was incredibleee! Everything we tried was so good but our favorites were spicy tuna w/ crispy rice, chicken anticucho, yellowtail jalapeño, special sushi roll (forget what it was called but had fluke, avocado. yuzu, and chili) and the strawberry shaved ice. Ambience was nice, modern and upscale. Tables a little close together but that’s the only problem. Overall an incredible experience and would recommend to anyone for a special occasion as it is very pricey (but worth it imo).
