    Creative Japanese unlike anything you’ve eaten before. Delicious food. Must try the Mac n Cheese and the Miso Caesar. The donuts for dessert are outstanding.

    Exquisite restaurant. Wide variety of food. Every course superb. Sushi quality way above most in the area too. Creative dishes such as macaroni rice cakes with curry and cheese. Excellent service too!

    Excellent food and tasty cocktails, service was good, albeit started off a little slow but everyone tried to assist and accommodate until our server was able to do so. Noise level in this location has always been a bit loud, but you are able to hear over it. Will definitely return!

    We sat outside because it was a nice night, and why not take advantage of that in South Florida, right? Our server, Miriam, was wonderful! Very sweet and attentive. We were two couples and shared lots of plates. Edamame, brussels sprouts, tuna crispy rice (so good we ordered a second plate), ribs, pastrami sando (SO YUM!), chili chicken, and an 8-piece sashimi plate. Everything was really good. So many different flavors, and each prepared well. The one tiny glitch we had was that the ribs were cold inside. (The flavor was so good, we ate them anyway!) But when we mentioned it to Miriam, she felt so badly. The manager came over to apologize and offered us dessert to make up for it, which was so nice! We probably wouldn't have ordered dessert otherwise, but they had an AMAZING carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and we also enjoyed the mochi. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and will definitely go back!!

    Didn’t eat anything I ordered. Place is a little run down hole in the wall which is fun sometimes but a turn off this time. Ordered the sea bass, Sando, and dumpling. Dumplings were the only thing edible. Food looked delicious but did not deliver in flavor, freshness or quality.

    Appetizers were great especially the truffle salmon crisp. The main dish, Bbq brisket noodles, left much to be desired; sauce lacked flavor, the brisket was cut into strips (that were mainly fatty) and rather chewy and the noodles were mushy. Overall, it’s a nice spot but for the prices they charge, I’d rather go to my local sushi dive. Probably won’t go back as our tab for 2 reached well over $250. Crazy town.

    Nicely decorated; a little loud; good, professional service; mostly solidly ok food. It’s not -bad-. The people in the kitchen know how to cook competently, but the menu is largely ill-conceived. Everything we tried was sooo sweet. Star of the night was the pastrami sando. It’s probably the only thing I’d order again. The miso eggplant was pretty good but very sweet. Crab fried rice was too wet and sweet and had some undercooked grains. It was almost more like shoddily done crab dirty rice than fried rice. The biggest disappointment of the night was the truffle teriyaki chicken, but mostly Im disappointed in myself for ordering it. Drawn in by the allure of truffles only to realize that I should have predicted all the ways this dish would be bad. The teriyaki sauce just blends with the soubise so that’s all it tastes like. The chicken was itself not teriyaki flavored at all, and the truffle was faint to the point of it being a waste of money. All in all the prices are too high here for the quality of the menu for the most part. If you do get dragged here, go for the pastrami sando.
