    Wonderful experience! Will be going back. Busy restaurant and a bit loud but the service was fantastic and the food was insane. We started with the oyster sampler and then I got the Wild Alaskan Black Cod with broth and noodles and it was so delicious. Brought our own wine because no corkage!

    We’re regulars at this location and they rarely disappoint. Our server last night, Matt was exceptional. The food was on point and at the start of a busy pre-Thanksgiving weekend we had a wonderful experience.  We always appreciate the seasonal offerings, the fresh ingredients, and the beautiful presentation.

    The vibe here is awesome! I started with the shrimp and lobster dumplings, and they were to die for. I also tried the salt and pepper calamari, which was perfectly seasoned and super tasty. For my main course, I had the garlic noodles with prawns, and it was just as delicious. I’ve been here a few times now, and I’ve never left feeling less than satisfied. I’ll definitely be back for more!
