Everything was solid. Keep in mind that bar seating is loud and difficult to maintain conversation with your group. Good for 2 people but anything more, try to get a table.

We had Edamame and miso soup to start, 6 pieces of nigiri (must get seared salmon belly), and shared 3 cut rolls. Sake selection is quite good - opted for a mid tier 300ml bottle which was bright and exciting. Ambiance is good at the sushi bar - recommend sitting there if dining alone or with one other. Bathrooms could be improved (granted this is not revenue generating for the restaurant, but it felt like and afterthought compared to the rest of Ginko.)

It is our favorite sushi spot. We have not found a more authentic place than ginko. Dante's other spot is good but it's more Americanized. Only thing I would suggest is to add Uni to the Omakase. We've had it twice with no Uni so we order it as add-ons. Our favorites include uni, otoro, lobster truffle, & oysters.

Everyone was incredibly nice from our hostess, waitress and sushi chef it was an amazing experience. The food was delicious I enjoyed every bite. The cocktails were also amazing I will have to figure out how to make the Hisoka and Shiso Martini at home.
