    We went on a slow Monday midafternoon to celebrate our engagement! The Ikura was amazing, and the portion of crab Poke was generous and very delicious. The house salad came out lightning fast too! I would Highly recommend this place to any couple as a fun weeknight date or a special occasion. The photos don't do the ambiance justice. Can't wait to see what this place looks like in the evening!

    It was a perfect setting for a night out. The food was great. The service was outstanding. The noise level was just right for you to hear everything you needed. Not much you can say bad about the place if anything at all. Maybe it was the fact that the seating was small, but it was comfy. The place doesn't seat many people, so you will have a great couples experience.
