First time here. Service was excellent and our waiter (from South Africa) was very attentive and nice. Our food was fantastic (e.g. dumplings, pastrami sandwich, numerous Sushi rolls and 2 desserts; both the carrot cake and donuts). Very fresh, clearly all made from scratch and one beer in particular I had, the Civil Society Fresh IPA (with hints of grapefruit) was one of the best beers I ever had. Nothing but rave reviews for this restaurant, service and food. Keep up the great work and we shall be back.

The food was absolutely amazing. The tuna crispy rice was unbelievable. All of the sushi was fresh and delicious. The filet mignon noodles were some of the best noodles I’ve ever had. We did sit outside at one of the furthest tables for the restaurant which felt odd, so I would’ve loved to sit inside or closer to all of the good vibes of the restaurant. Our server was kind, super helpful, and diligent. Everything came out so quick. Highly recommend!!!

Our kids visited and it’s her favorite sushi place in Boca. We thought it was good, but can’t say that we were blown away as everything kinda tasted the same. I will say that they edamame had a nice flavor to it.
