    Good food and service. We have brought friends and family here for decades—always satisfied, if somewhat pricy. But for the first we had to leave early as it was overly noisy and too cool to eat quietly outside.

    Took 40 minutes to get our drinks and then almost two hours to get our food and only after we told them we were about to be late for a play.

    Love this restaurant. It's intimate. Always feels like a special occasion. Nicole is wonderful, and very knowledgeable about sake. Last time we were there, I had the Skydiver roll and the Hamachi Jalapeno; both were great. The sunomono is a great pairing with both those rolls. My husband had the beef short ribs, which he wasn't thrilled with; he found them dry and chewy. I hope he can find something else he really likes, because I would happily eat there once a month. He did enjoy of the Hamachi Jalapeno that I ordered.

    The presentation of the food was very aesthetic. The best miso soup I’ve ever tasted. The wait staff was warm and friendly.
