    Our waitress was extremely nice. The fish was less than we expected unfortunately, especially for the price.

    Mediocre food. Or plain bad, in some cases. Tasted different sushi rolls. Some tasted like the ingredients were too old. Others as if they were meant to scare you. The music volume is probably studied to induce numbness, so one doesn’t realize how bad the food is. On top of it, absolutely, absurdly expensive. I’ll never set foot again.

    Exceptional sushi! Fantastic service, really tasty cocktails and gorgeous decor. The staff was super sweet and even gave the table a delicious dessert since we were celebrating my son’s graduation. Don’t sleep on the chicken wings!
