Independence Restaurants

Great tacos and vibe for St John. Good service although waitstaff was too quick to clear our table and felt like they were pushing us out even though restaurant was not full.

On the food side, food and service was really good. On the down side, it was extremely hot and the AC didn't seem to work. We ask our waiter and said this is a common issue.

Service was incredible! Her name was Carla, (or Karla, unsure of the spelling). She was kind, efficient, and very attentive. We weren’t her only table but definitely felt like we were. She checked in at all the right moments and quickly removed finished dishes from the table throughout the experience. This experience felt so high end for a very* affordable price. This restaurant is categorized as “$$$$”, and this was giving that level of service, but at a “$$” price point in my opinion. High quality, delicious Japanese cuisine, for an affordable price. You can’t beat it. We also didn’t have a reservation but we were keeping an eye out after discovering the restaurant. We randomly checked open table around 6pm, someone must of canceled because there was a table open for 9:30pm. Luck was on our side and we’re so happy we got the opportunity to enjoy this. 10/10 The Nesuto appetizer was our favorite!!

View was spectacular. Food was good and our server was fantastic. Bar and drinks were great too!

Excellent food, the jerk pasta and the whole fried snapper are great dishes I went back twice just for those dishes, great staff and beautiful location
