The food and hospitality were amazing. It’s was very crowded and loud, but so much fun. Our waitresses Aly and Sunnie were wonderful. The bar was a bit backed up, so as soon as they delivered our 1st drinks, we put an order in for a second round, which arrived as we were finishing our 1st drinks. I don’t think this will be the norm, but a heads up if you are dining there during the holiday season. I could type out several paragraphs on how delicious the food was, but my biggest takeaways are the flavors and spice used in their dishes. The jalapeño biscuits/scones were hands down delicious. If you have not been to a Duro Hospitality restaurant yet, you are in for a real treat.

The food, the service and the craft cocktails were all excellent. I had some of the most creative and best bites of sushi that I’ve ever had. Really attentive to details and consistent but not hovering service.

Came here for my anniversary. The food was great. The staff kept making sure that we had everything we needed and even asked if there was anything specific we wanted so they could bring it. We were treated to a complementary dessert to celebrate. The restaurant had quite a bit of people, but it was still quiet and did not require us to raise our voices in order to hear each other.

We’d never dined here before but had heard very good things. We were not disappointed. The “Oden” stew sells out fast and it is very limited. If available, the Sautéed Hokkaido Scallops in Uni Sauce is exceptional. On the regular menu, all of the sushi/sashimi we had was very good and the Chicken Karaage was very good. Our waiter was attentive and knew their wines. The restaurant was quiet and easy to hear and be heard in. Ample valet parking in the rear.
