    I came in from Chicago to visit my daughter. I took her and her roommate to dinner. It was last minute so many places were booked and we found Japanese opened up. And it was the most delicious food. The service was amazing. And the atmosphere was super charming. A great area to go out too

    One of the best restaurants in DC. Great food, perfect portions, good wine list, and great pacing of the meal. The calamari is fresh and flavorful. We split a Caesar Salad, and it came out on two separate plates, which was nice. I got the Chicken Parmesan, and my wife got a Seafood pasta dish. We both loved our entrees. We ended with an Oreo Cheesecake that was also delicious! The server didn't make eye contact with me at all, only my wife which was weird. Other than that it was an amazing experience!

    Enjoyed a great dinner on our first visit. Service was helpful and food wonderful. The restaurant is sleek and modern without catering to the influencer crowd. A great addition to DC.
