EXCEPTIONAL!!! Came for dinner and drinks with two girlfriends and had a beautiful experience. Our server was amazing, knowledgeable and attentive. The food was divine! We loved the nigiri and the miso cod so much, and the ceviche and amberjack were delicious. Sake selection is on point too! This place is a hidden gem and I want to come back for omakase soon..

Loved the Omakase tasting! The chef was super passionate about letting us know what we were having with some great descriptors to make it more tasty sounding! Loved the seaweed shot as it was one of the more fun parts of the experience. Heavily recommend getting the crepe cake, it’s very soft and moist unlike most dry crepe cakes I’ve had before.

Very approachable while still being exceptional quality. This is an omakase experience that lets the quality of the fish and the combinations of unique flavors shine. Would highly recommend.
