We love your restaurant. That said it was not a “wow” last night. The last few times it was an A++. Last night an A at best. The server was good and anticipated many of our needs, but he was so very soft spoken, my husband and our guest has a very difficult time hearing him and the food instructions. And it was not even close to a full house at our 5:15 seating. Several of the pieces of sashimi were also a bit fishy, which has never happened before. We will come back, but we may try the other items instead of our typical omakase .

We love us some Tulio's. It is just so wonderful to dine in an establishment that is more than excellent, it is confident in its excellence. The service is fun, helpful and friendly, and the food delicious. Be sure to sample the grapefruit "Limoncello"
