Great place to have dinner before a show. They have a special pre show dinner available . You don't have to have that; you can eat whatever you like. Sashimi was delicious. Duck bun was good but nothing special. Fries were great and lots of them. My wine glass appeared to be under filled but overall a great place to eat.
