    Drink was good but I will say the food was no good at all. Very disappointing, been here a few times and I’ve enjoyed my dinner but this time around my sushi roll was not good at all.

    We ordered a Burrito and Shrimp Plate. The burrito came out within 5 minutes. The Shrimp Plate came out 30 minutes later. I was already finished with my Burrito. Would not go back on a busy day. I have been there many times and have had great service. Possibly understaffed during this holiday rush, but they should have coursed our meal properly and brought it out at the same time.
