    This might be the best sushi I’ve ever had! The sushi has so much flavor and the vibes are great, too. It was also a lot of sushi, so the value is great. I will be recommending this place to everyone.

    I’m in town for work and wanted to try something new. The Okakase experience was excellent. The chef walked me through every dish, where the fish was from, why it was garnished a particular way, and guided me through the flavor profile. He was very friendly. The waitress who worked on my Sake pairings was friendly and took time to explain the different sake flavors. 10/10 experience and exceptionally nice in a big city.

    We did the table side omakase and everything was prepared wonderfully. A couple flubs occurred during our visit, but I would still suggest checking this place out. They did have a few fish that were new for us to try as sushi enthusiasts. I would suggest waiting and reserving spots at the traditional omakase experience with the chef.

    Not at all like Ch was prior to sushi collaboration. Sushi was decent, drinks were not creative and our server was flat out grumpy. Wouldn’t recommend or go again. Too bad because it used to be a great spot.

    Awesome experience. CH has already been making great cocktails for a long time, but the sushi was among the best I have had in the city and was outstanding. Venue has a great vibe and overall this is rapidly becoming one of the best kept secrets in the city dining scene.

    The omakase was an incredible experience. The chef was very engaging and friendly. The cuts were uniquely prepared with an emphasis on their in house dry aging. The suggested sake flight perfectly accompanied this 19 course feast. Quite a few cuts were so good I had to get seconds! The kingfish, rudderfish, and the caviar topped otoro stood out. I traveled from out of state to visit this restaurant, and the evening affirmed I made a wise decision. I will be making the trip to this city again solely to have this meal again.
