    We went specifically for the omakase (chef choice) sushi tasting dinner. The choices and presentations were fabulous. We were at the sushi bar and were the only customers in that section of the restaurant. When we initially sat down the service felt spotty. It took awhile for us to be served water and to be given a beverages menu. The manager noticed and he actually took care of us. Kudos to him. I would definitely return for the sushi. We are big fans of the other Zen family restaurants and this is a great addition.

    Christmas Eve, part of 5 with a toddler. This takes extra planning on behalf of the staff. We were seated in a corner, so we could keep our commotion contained! There were options for a high chair or a booster seat…awesome. The waitstaff brought the toddler’s noodles and broccoli quickly! Major win there. The food was delicious (including the toddler’s dinner). Everything was prompt. We did not feel rushed, and we did not disturb the other diners too much because of where we were seated. Thank you for making our Christmas Eve dinner a success.

    We love going there. It seems every time we go they have new staff though not cooks or servers but the table servers. They could be a little more assertive.
