Service was great until it got busy. Server didn’t check on us for almost 30 minutes. Had to waive her down for the bill. Don’t keep bringing bottles of water to drive up the cheque. Charged for three bottles only had 2 I won’t return just based on this strategy to increase cheque size.

Hi Mike, Sorry to hear you had trouble with the service. We don't charge by individual bottles, we charge per guest for the bottled water, as it's filtered and poured on site in re-usable bottles. I hope this clears up any confusion. Have a great weekend. Best regards, Nicholas, GM

Food selection is excellent. Minami is one of my favourite Japanese restaurants. Oshi dishes were enjoyed by me and my guests. Dishes are on the high side for price, so our bill was quite high, but we all enjoyed our evening and will certainly revisit if I’m in town. Server was also knowledgeable about food and Saki choices.

Super super delicious! We had a great time. My friends and I were so happy to dine here. The rolls are superbbbb! Had to order multiple times. Good value for money too. Not too expensive for that kind of food and ambiance.
