What a huge surprise. Who knew casino would have such an amazing restaurant. Mel, our server was just outstanding. We came back the next week because he was so good and we asked for him. The three course meal is such a great value. I have a lovely fillet and the next time I upgraded to a ribeye. The sweet potato mash was one of the best I’ve had. I also had the most amazing soufflé that I can’t stop thinking about. Again truly special place and I highly recommend it. Definitely worth the drive.

I’m not even exaggerating. This was THE BEST sushi I’ve had in my entire life. The truffle oil on that roll seriously changed my life. And our server was the nicest! She was absolutely wonderful. Well worth the drive from San Diego. I will be back and I can’t wait!!
