   10/10 from the moment we walked in the door! 10/10 -Service was impeccable! Our server was attentive, polite and efficient. She provided recommendations and made sure to touch our table after each course was delivered to ensure we were satisfied and didn't need anything else. Kudos to the manager for accompanying the waitress when our entrees were dropped off to provide his pairing recommendations to enhance the flavor of our dishes ( lemon squeeze on the Bok Choy- PERFECTION!) 10/10- FOOD! We started with the Tuna Crispy Rice. I'm not a fan of Tuna however my partner loves it and we both thoroughly enjoyed this dish. The rice was nice, crispy and hot and presentation was great. The Beef Short Rib was absolutely the highlight of our mains. So juicy, perfectly seasoned and tender- just wow! This dish came with side pairings of 3 sauces, pickled onions, salt, pepper, lettuce and cilantro so that you could experiment and taste to your liking. You can't leave here without trying this. This is also a great entree to share as it is a considerable amount of meat. The Japanese sweet potato was a pleasant surprise. My partner wasn't sure of it when we first ordered but his thoughts changed immediately after the first bite. This was damn GOOD. The Bok Choy was fresh and very tasty and the Korean Fried Chicken had my partner in a chokehold. 7/10- DRINKS were good but a little weak. I had the Future of Ronin which was tasty and my partner had the Wynwood Mule. Very tasty but could've used an extra shot. 10/10-DESSERT WAS BOMB! We had the cinnamon roll and if I don't do anything else, I will be back for this! Don't skip out on dessert here like ever! Overall our experience was top tier here and is HIGHLY recommended! We will def be back!

   The new chef has ruined some of the best dishes on the menu! Wish it was the old chef and menu still. Those dishes were incredible. Less allergy friendly now.

   We came for happy hour and ended up staying for most of the night. The bartenders Alex & Alexis took the best care of us. Will definitely be back!
