This place was fantastic. The service was 100%. The restaurant ambiance was five star. I really liked this restaurant, but I didn't think that cost was accurate for the taste. I thought the food was good but everything else was incredible. I love how they do their sake set up too! Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We've been here a few times and this time was the best. Our group ordered a variety of things and all of them were good. They have an extensive sushi/roll menu but also enough other things for those in our group who didn't eat sushi.

1st time visit for a birthday dinner. Shared a sampler of sake. Really enjoyed the Cucumber salad; haven't had anything like it before. Sashimi for him, tempura for me; perfect portions and all good!
