The food is amazing! Especially the seaweed salad, the matcha cocktail, the salmon tartar.. absolutely crave worthy! That said, our waitress forgot to bring my friend her cocktail, we waited a long time to cheers to my birthday as a result and then, even knowing it was my birthday kept asking if we were done or wanted to order a desert multiple times instead of just letting us enjoy our conversation or being thoughtful and bringing something as a nod to my birthday and the fact that we waited 20 minutes for the other cocktail to arrive (she probably forgot to order the second one…, it was that delayed). All in all I’d come back but I hope I don’t have that same waitress again. She wasn’t very thoughtful.

Great food. Edamame was a bit too spicy but great flavors ! Black crispy rice was great! Waygu dumplings great but also spicy. Truffle parm fries were nice as well.

The entire experience was good. The table we got was by the window and it was awkwardly placed and little to no wiggle room. There were other tables but we decided to just keep the table.

We had a nice early dinner. Our server Patricio was very attentive. Food was fresh. Ordered the crispy Brussels sprouts as a side at the suggestion of our server. They were outstanding!

Everything here was fantastic. We were visiting from out of town and didn’t have any expectations, but we were blown away. The vibe is trendy, modern and upscale. The service was attentive and friendly. All of the food was so so good. Prices are on the higher side, but everything was absolutely worth it. Some of the highlights were the baked crab hand rolls, the wagyu fried rice and the caviar-uni-toro. This is definitely a meal I’ll remember for a long time.

I really enjoy dining here, however the portions are very small. I ordered the yellowtail carpaccio and it had only 4 slices. Wagyu dumplings are very small and they only give you 3 pieces.
