We made a reservation for 7pm and there was a hockey game at the arena next door so it was super crowded and super loud inside. We were seated right away and our server was very good. After the game started at 7:30 the crowd thinned out and we were able to have a normal volume conversation instead of yelling at each other from 2 feet away. The food was prepared and served quickly and everything was delicious. The chocolate cake dessert recommended by our server was sooo good.

My first time there but my birthday! I feel like to give you an hour and a half limit at a table felt a little rushed. Because by the time you got your food ate at a conversation it was a little bit over there an hour and a half. Overall the restaurant was very nice.

All the appetizers, rolls and nigiri were delicious! Our server was attentive and the tea plus heater added to ambience on a cold night while we enjoyed the views on the outside patio. The supermoon shining above was the cherry on top for us. Had missed it here.
