    As usual, our experience at this restaurant was wonderful. Food was excellent and served quickly. The menu was very wide and all of us found many things to order. The price was reasonable and we will continue to come often. The only fault I find is it a little dark. O well that is why the phones have a flashlight.

    Love this place! First, it is beautifully decorated. The service was fantastic and friendly. Absolutely the best cooked sushi I've ever had. The cocktails were well crafted. The only suggestion I would have is to put a little more space between the deuce seatings. They were a little too close together.

    So much fun for dinner! Busy night due to the eagles parade eve but they kept the food coming. Here’s a tip - get food for one less than your party. We were 3 and just ordered food for 2. It was plenty.
