    Great customer service, food is good.....but....overly overpriced. This is not Nobu...$30 for a roll, $20 for 5 pieces of Tempura . Not sure I would go back since the food is good but nothing extra special.

    The rolls were amazing! Drinks were fantastic as well. A little pricey, but worth the experience. Our server was very attentive. We were seated inside and the noise level was low. Definitely recommend!

    Great menu and delicious food. The service was exceptional. However it was too hot to dine in the outside area. The inside dining room has noise so loud that it it almost impossible to have a conversation with friends at your table. I am fining that restaurants with very loud dining areas are not a place I want to eat with friends. I do not understand why restaurants want a dining room where you need to scream to have a conversation.

    The food and service were truly exceptional — a wonderful experience overall. The only downside was that the restroom did not appear to be well maintained, which was a bit disappointing given how well-kept and inviting the front-of-house areas were.
