Excellent service and the food was delicious. The food came out quickly too. The music was a bit too high and it was a bit difficult to hear and have a conversation without raising our voice. Recommend this place highly.

Great food for both sushi lovers and those in search of cooked options. Service was very friendly but the kitchen was quite slow so the food came out intermittently instead of all together. Took almost 45 minutes between the first dish and the last. Overall the taste and friendliness made up for the rest. We would go back for sure.

A fun new place on Main Street! Like the concept … chairs at the bar, a few high tables along the side and regular tables by the windows. Comfy. The right lighting and sound level. The right place for popping out for a meal. Lovely food …. I had the Peking duck which was lovely. Great service. Worth a visit.
