    Our server was the only thing good about our experience. Drink order was slow and the wine had to be sent back because it was old. The lemongrass soup was way over salty and inedible. The steak and sea bass dishes were edible but very small portions for the cost. The server did her best but she had too many tables to cover well. We will not recommend and won’t be going back.

    I had the macadamia nut chicken. Was pretty good, might have been slightly overcooked. The green beans were excellent as was the crispy soy brussel sprouts. My wife had the special stuffed salmon. She said it was excellent.

    The server was really kind. The food and drinks took a while to come out, but we weren’t in a rush. Happy hour is a great deal here, otherwise the sushi is quite expensive for what you get. Kids bento boxes are phenomenal and always a hit with my kids!
