The kitchen accommodated my cousin’s gluten allergy with creativity and patience. The salmon and filet mignon were perfect entrees. Highly recommended for those who like Asian fusion and for those who have gluten issues.

The food was fresh and tasty. Our server was attentive. I would definitely come back again. The atmosphere of the restaurant is modern and clean. The menu style is Asian with a few American dishes as well. Plenty of options for anyone to find something they like.

Overall we had a good experience. The waitress was super sweet and the atmosphere was pleasant. Unfortunately the appetizer I was so looking forward to enjoying ran out. They did allow me to pick another item from the regular menu to accommodate me. The food was served nicely and portions were adequate. I would say the food was a little too salty and I would’ve appreciated it more had it been a little less so. Overall I would recommend and would return again sometime. I do appreciate the restaurant week price offering as overall dining out has gotten so price prohibitive.
