    Loved everything - amazing service - beautiful minimalist decor - a menu to die for! We had the best lunch it was so fun to receive the box of nori to create their version of a hand-roll that resembles a sushi taco. We order the signature set - beyond delicious - very favorite was x.o. Scallop. Our appetizers were delectable too. We had the wasabi cucumber tataki and the spicy tuna dip. Just when we thought it couldn’t get better we had a yummy dessert of warm sesame miso chocolate chip cookie! Do not miss this gem!

    I called the restaurant to modify the reservation because everyone was running late. They had no issue and helped me with the timing. Augusto was excellent! He was very attentive and efficient! I was celebrating my elopement with my wife and friends. He surprised us with mixed tequila shots to help us celebrate. It was delicious and we were so grateful! We will come again soon! I hope they bring back the dancing fire shows. The restaurant said they stopped it but I would love to experience this!
