I have enjoyed naked, fish, sushi Grill, a number of Times, but on this particular day did not perform as well as in the past The waitress is way overworked. She was doing many tables and our orders took quite some time to come to us. In fact, one order was missed you notified them of it and then they brought us the order within a few minutes. You could tell the rush to make the rules because the centers were falling out and wasn’t tight besides also it being the wrong dish since we waited so long and it was the last dish we decided to suck it up and eat it As I mentioned, I’ve been here several times and this is a real disappointment this time around, especially I have brought guests with me that had never been when I only kept telling them how great it And it really wasn’t that great at least on this day

Went for the restaurant week dinner. The staff was friendly. The room was elegant. The food was delicious. Portions was more than sufficient. The house margaritas were excellent. FYI we had the yellowtail ceviche, chicken taquitos, beef empanadas, and street corn appetizers. The corn was particularly good. We had the steak fajitas and chicken enchiladas for entrees. Both were tasty. We’ll be back
