Reservations are encouraged and can be booked online up to 1 month in advance. Walk-in bar seating is available and is subject to wait times. Patio seating is weather permitting and may be rescheduled in the event of inclement weather. Happy Hour is offered everyday from 4:00 - 6:00 and on Sunday - Wednesday from 4pm - 10pm at the bar only. We look forward to serving you, Kanpai!

We had a 7:15 reservation on a Monday. We were finally seated at 8:15 ,but only after my wife complained about the inordinate wait. To their credit, the restaurant comped our drinks. Unfortunately the waiting continued after we were seated. The waiter must have bern overburdened because he was scarce. I ordered the entire meal when he finally came for our drink order for fear we wouldn’t see him again. The waiter warned us there would be a delay in the food arriving, and he wasn’t wrong. Our waiter brought us an order of Brussel Sprouts at one point to try to keep us from gnawing off our arms. The food was delicious so no complaint there. We exited after 10 p.m. which is simply too long.

Was a little bummed for my birthday they stuck us in a corner booth at the bar which had no ambiance and I thought they would offer a dessert for my birthday and they did nothing.

The new lunch menu is extremely limited, and while some items are outstanding, several were just okay or even bland. Very disappointing, especially considering the cost.

The food was excellent and the tasting menu was an amazing way to enjoy many different dishes. Definitely a great way to enjoy a birthday dinner with family. Their service was great and always checking in on the table. Server Dani was very helpful with suggestions and this establishments ambiance was great. I think this was better than Uchi. Thank you for a wonderful birthday experience!
