    Great vibe and environment! Went for the Happy Hour oyster special, but they weren’t as fresh but were still tasty. Sushi dishes were okay and the service was a bit slow. Would come back if in the area or for the vibes!

    This restaurant and the experience were a whole vibe! The food and drinks were great and the staff added to the fun. John took great care of us and made fantastic food and drink recommendations. The Chilean Sea Bass was one of the best I’ve ever had! Will definitely be back to try more food and drinks. Great venue for a bday celebration dinner.

    This place was a bit of a disappointment. I made a reservation for a birthday celebration at the sushi bar on a Saturday night. We ordered a bottle of wine and a number of things which we asked our server to course. That did not happen, all of it arrived at once. There was no space to enjoy anything and we felt rushed . The chef did not interface with us or recommend anything. Overall the food was mediocre, the wine list is basic, their cocktails and sake selections are ok. Not sure I would ever go back and I definitely would not recommend it.
