    Good food, great drinks! Always a favorite! We had the Sandfish maki roll, along with some spicy edamame, tuna tataki tacos (very fun!), and miso (needed because I was so cold).

    Two of us at the sushi bar. Fun to watch the cocktails made. Who knew ice embossed with a copper press was a thing? Most unique awesome dish was the lobster stuffed tempura zucchini blossoms. Wow.

    Over priced for the quality. Outdoor seating is nothing special. No heat lamps, flowers, or ambiance.

    Great ambiance and wonderful service! The spicy tuna tostados were delicious as well as the brownie and the creamiux. Everything else was mid -- nothing super memorable. There is also only one bathroom, which drew a line through the restaurant for much of the night.

    Outstanding all around. The menu options are really varied which is nice as it hits everyone’s tastes. The rolls were really high end and packed with flavor. Highly recommend the tuna tostados. Remarkable how good it is. Great service on top of it all.

    Yummy. Would definitely return. My only issue was it felt rushed. We put in our order and everything came out all at once, within 10 minutes. I don’t like feeling rushed, and particularly with sushi I’d like my items staggered in a more leisurely fashion. Staff may want to work on this.
