    Server was amazing and I appreciate how lowkey they made my birthday. I enjoyed every bite from the chef and his crew. There were a few interactions with servers helping my server. One slammed/dropped my plate down and I saw her look back at me. No apology was given (white server). Another server knocked my jacket off my chair as well (couldn’t catch description). Mannerisms were unusual from this establishment.

    Food was good for the brunch, could use a bit of variety. Hand roll was good. Wish there was sashimi since the sushi had too much rice with the small size of fish so sad to say the sushi was the worst part since I couldn’t really taste the fish, just the sushi rice. Deserts were ok, could have more than just 1 kind of cookies? More Easter theme options? The people that took care of the plates were great. Our waiter was ok. I guess since we didn’t order any drink, we didn’t get much of his attention during the meal.

    This is the first time my family and I have tried their brunch and we we’re skeptical at first but it was great. My usually very picky adult children were all happy and satisfied with the selection and there were no complaints that is always a win.

    Excellent food always. The service was very kind and attentive but the timing of our meals was off. They comp’d me a glass of wine which was nice to make up for it. Aircon was too high so I switched tables and they were kind to accommodate but I may have messed up the service. But at these prices you expect perfection.

    The food was absolutely amazing but we felt as if our waitress was neglecting us and did not care about our table compared to others.
