The service was a little slow, but all the employees were running around like crazy trying to take care of everyone so maybe short staffed. Pretty good sushi, and pretty good views. We sat outside, but the radiant heaters kept it warm enough even in December. It seems like an Instagram restaurant to me: Most of the people were just there to post photos for their friends to see. The unagi nigiri was definitely the best thing we ordered. The Yuzu cake was great too.

10s across the board: great service and atmosphere, incredible food, nice upkeep. Seared tuna crispy rice, yams, black cod, and uni pasta were our faves. First time my date has been to Mrs. Fish; she loved it.
