We kept asking for items on the menu that never arrived and our waiter clearly paid more attention to diners who were drinking alcohol. Additionally, some of the food items lacked flavor like the dumplings and the chicken tacos. I'm not sure I'll be coming back anytime soon.

One of the supervisors didn't notice until 90 mins later and offered to give us more room but by that time we were about to leave. Our waiter brought things out in phases so we could try everything and it was served family style so we ate off one and if we liked something again we could order it again. The food was decent the potatoes, cauliflower with a curry dressing, and the breakfast nachos and churros was the best on the menu the maple cream was a nice touch with the churros. Most options was meatless but we still enjoyed it all. The regular mimosa wasn't that good to us but them margaritas (tropical punch flavor too) was BOMB and worth it will definitely come back for the drinks. Overall will try again just not the brunch. Had a nice time

I don't know if it just didn't work that day but it was 92° outside so I assume they would've tried everything to make it remotely cooler in there. They had a fan in a corner that did absolutely nothing but besides that, I love the food, the drinks were great, and the waiter was amazing. I'll go back hoping that the AC works.

The Sake was very good, but I suggest either improving the sushi bar or hiring a real sushi chef. The rice was not up to standard, lacking the required taste and texture for sushi. It seemed to be the same rice used for burritos, with individual grains that were sometimes wet and not sticky. It did not have the right hint of vinegar, which ruined the taste of the rolls. A fusion restaurant could work well, but mixing ingredients should be done carefully. I hope the restaurant improves in the future. Good luck.

The drinks should have been served in pitchers and we felt rushed at our table. I was hoping for a more enjoyable experience and unfortunately, I will not be returning to this restaurant.
