    Wonderful meal with accommodations to allergies. Server was a delight and the food wonderful! Have a 4 star due to waiting a while for initial drink and app order as well as grill item. Lighting was off as well. Too dim but no light @ table. Overall a great experience!

    We really enjoyed everything we had. Gyoza was excellent, our sushi was wonderful, and I really like the Farthest Star sake. Wish I had skipped the baby hamachi Jalapeno, found it bland, but that’s on me. Will definitely return here!

    Overall good experience. The food was delicious. And some dishes were fun such as the flaming salmon. However, we are spoilt living in Bermuda and the sushi itself was not as good as we are used to. But that is not a reflection on this restaurant - as we have set a high bar. The location itself was marked down also. A long corridor style restaurant. Meaning that one side of the table faced the wall. Which made it harder to feel the atmosphere. Take someone you like to look at.
