We came here to celebrate my daughter‘s 26th birthday with the family. This is our first time dining in here and the ambience looks amazing. It’s not too loud. It’s not too bright, but it’s just right. The decor is also fantastic and interesting. Food it’s really good. The fillet Tokyo style is the favorite Although I don’t eat meat, but I am glad that they all like it. The Bronzino was a little bit salty for me, but it was tasty. The highlight of the night was the dessert platter. It was amazing and we would dine in just to order the dessert platter. We think our waiter who is really kind and very helpful with all our request.

This is an exceptional restaurant, particularly for its views on a sunny day. The service is very good and the food was good. I had the lobster roll which was more a lobster burger and my friend, a Cobb salad that was a deconstructed Cobb and not in a good way. The fish appetizers were good. It is quite the scene and the great place to “wow” out of town visitors. I find the $20 valet parking annoying.
