Friends recommended this place and I gotta say: if you haven't been there yet you're missing out big time. The quality of the fish can't be compared to those sushi places around, it literally melts in your mouth, uni was amazingly fresh and not overwhelmingly strong nor fishy, their ceviche must be the best I've tried, their tiraditos had such a combination of flavors and ingredients that leaves you wanting more. Service was top notch and ambiance was really warm and welcoming, will definitely be back to try everything I'm still missing in the menu.

Celebrated our anniversary. Waitress was extremely knowledgeable about menu options. Very attentive to our needs. Her suggestion was spot on. One of the best fish dishes I've eaten! Not to mention the yummy chocolate soufflé dessert. Definitely worth the drive from S. OC to dine.
