WOW!! What a great experience. Restaurants like this are hard to find in the greater Sacramento area. So happy to have one locally. The farm to fork fashion is truly a thing here! From local farms! The ever-changing and evolving menu is amazing. We highly recommend the Omakase with wine pairing. It was excellent!

First time at this restaurant to celebrate my husband’s birthday and overall the experience was wonderful. Location and space was really nice and the food was really delicious but what I must really rave about is the service. Our waiter, Vince, truly made this experience so enjoyable and fun ! He was very polite and attentive to our needs but not overly intrusive. In a world where we have seen the service industry diminish since Covid he was a welcome delight.
