Service was immaculate, our server was attentive without hovering. She spotted an error in what we had been served before we did and had it swiftly corrected. We had the shishito peppers, geoduck, and omakase. The pacing was perfect, we were able to enjoy each part of the course without feeling rushed. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. 14/10 would recommend.

I go here frequently for years and love it . On this one occasion my go-to roll legend of kaju was soggy. Not sure what happened. It’s never happened before and my husband’s roll was excellent as usual.
