    This was our first time dining at this restaurant, Adriana was amazing, her service was friendly, she recommended items in the menu and mentioned some of the specials they were having. The food was outstanding, it arrived at a great pace with the appetizers and main entrees. The drinks were made to perfection by the bar. Highly recommend and will definitely dine again when in town.

    We’ve been to Casa Sensei many times and each time it’s absolutely wonderful. The food is consistently delicious and the staff is friendly and very accommodating. Our waiter last night ~ Alex ~ was amazing. He is fun, and was very attentive & made our daughter’s birthday even more enjoyable.

    Fantastic once again. We have been coming here for over 20 years and highly anticipate each visit. We had smoked fish dip and claws ti start. Both were excellent. Fresh claws and very flavorful. Conch chowder and ceasar salad were great and then we share a delicious branzibi. An absolutely fun and memorable experience.
