    Overall the tasting menu was very good and surprisingly diverse. It featured a nice mix of Japanese sashimi along with some non-traditional plates. The highlights include the Sea Urchin on toast, Seabream sashimi and Scallop risotto. And don't for the get the ice cream dessert, it was really good. Sake paring is a must.

    Excellent … so far the Washington Trump Tower Sushi place was the best - Guide Michelin - but this was equally great!

    We went with the tasting menu and a recommended bottle of sake as opposed to the sake pairing. Each course was better than the last, everything was amazing my favourites were the uni toast, flatiron wagyu and tuna and salmon sashimi.
