    I wish it were quieter. That level of music is unnecessary

    The food is really good it's something different where you need the one I like the best is there beat salad it is really yummy also their service that their service is impeccable they really give attention to all the tables. the noise level could be a little bit noisy while it depends because we're close to each other so you can really hear the noise you can really hear the noise level that sometimes goes up so it depends on the client who goes there but aside from that the food was really good. i was there last year and again this year and if they come with the dine out again next yr. I'm gonna show up again.

    I was here during Vancouver Dine Out last year 2024, and last night I was here again. While the atmosphere and service were still great, I found the experience a little disappointing. Main issue was that the menu for the Dine Out event had remained exactly the same as the year before, which I didn’t realize until I arrived, I probably should have checked the menu in advance. I was hoping for a bit of variety, especially since it's a special event meant to showcase new or seasonal dishes. That said, the quality of the food was still good, but the lack of change felt like a missed opportunity. The dishes were well-prepared, but I was expecting something new, especially after a whole year. Overall, I would recommend checking the menu beforehand if you plan to visit next year, just to make sure it aligns with what you're looking for.

    We had the DineOut omakase menu and it was terrific. There weren't any dishes that we would rate as anything but great, and several were outstanding (the sashimi beet salad and duck breast salad in particular). $55 for a six-course omakase (and $8 for ~ 10 oz of decent French house red wine!) was a bargain. The restaurant was packed and we were impressed with the efficiency of the kitchen and staff (who were very nice)- we were in and out in about 2 hours.

    I believed that the price is over a bit, the goods were good and the desert was really tasty.
