    Our server, Katalina, was gracious enough to clarify some gluten free options for us - immediately the ambience feels underground and not another chain restaurant. The drinks transport us to what their name suggests. The Monsoon had a very melancholy feeling, like on an island coast on an overcast evening, awaiting imminent storms. The sushi was excellent, great textures and flavors. If you plan for dinner and drinks, it can get pricey, but for date night or special event it’s worth many recurring shots.

    Great sushi rolls and great drinks. Excellent service from Tori, Holden and Jaylen while sitting at the bar. Tori makes a great Emperor’s Old Fashioned and the Paradise Roll was so tasty, had to get ONE TO GO!!!!

    Used to be our favorite sushi spot in town. Service was slow, and waitress completely messed up our party’s dinner. We didn’t get our full order and a couple people never got their food. They still tried to charge for everything ordered. Maybe the waitress was a bit overwhelmed but the manager really sucked. Unfortunately we won’t go there again…Aka Sushi is right next door so we’ll give them a shot at the title!

    Wouldn’t seat us because one person in our party was running late even though we wanted appetizers and drinks. Took 30 minutes to get our drinks and none of the food came out at a reasonable time and one person in our party didn’t get their food so had to get it to go. Cool place but the service sucks.

    Tries to bill itself as upscale. The venue, locale, staff, service, and food were all very acceptable. I would’ve enjoyed the experience more had the quality matched the self-certain pretentiousness.

    The food was overpriced for the quality as were the cocktails. All of this would not have led me to put them time and effort into writing a review if we wouldn’t have had such a poor experience with the manager. The policy is an additional $20 fee for any change to guest reservation. I can understand that if the restaurant is slammed but we were one of three tables. Multiple tables walked in without a reservation and were sat and our table was casually pushed together when we got there. So when we asked the manager if this could be considered she was extremely rude in her response and walked away abruptly. I love supporting local restaurants in CC, TX but we will not be back here.

    Aside from a mountain of dishes on the bar this place was great. The bartenders had no help with dishes and were only able to was what was needed to keep up with drink orders. Several servers and other staff walked up, rearranged the dishes and walked away without clearing or helping.

    We did enjoy the place. The food was okay. Nothing that was amazing for me but was definitely enjoyable. The drinks just okay other than the fact they had an amazing presentation. Environment was good. I would return with a new found expectation. I would sit on the bar side next time though. It has a little more abeiance

    My husband and I went here for the first time for my birthday. The decor of the restaurant is beautiful. I had the geisha drink and the smoke bubble was so much fun and was delicious. The two rolls I ordered (Ebi flash roll & dancing crab roll) were delicious and some of the best I’ve had in a while. My husband was so-so on his order of the sushi deluxe but loved the cali roll that came with it. Our service was amazing and I cannot wait to come back. 10/10 recommend.
