    Our dining experience was fantastic from beginning to end; we enjoyed every moment. We even had a good laugh over the mix-up with the wagyu, but honestly, it turned out to be the best we've ever had. I can't think of a single dish or dessert we didn't love, and a big shoutout to Jared, the pastry chef, for making my early birthday dinner special. I really hope no 9 sticks around because the food here is the best in the city. Again thank you for amazing evening

    Celebrating a birthday here is special, especially when you get a server like Enrique. 😍 Kudos to the chef for the light and flakey baked haddock. The baked Alaska presentation was awesome!

    A great dining experience. I’ve eaten a lot of Asian foods, but I had never had a hot pot. The service was excellent explaining how everything worked, heat levels, add-ons, etc. just listen to them explain and ask any questions. Side note: If you order appetizers or sushi wait until you finish them to order your hot pot. It came out quickly. It and everything with it took up almost the entire table.
