    host was great, server was almost absent and was super slow taking our order then ordered with a different server and order came out crazy fast. The location is great especially for a pre or post theatre option. we were there for happy hour which was amazing and delicious.

    Wonderful place in the heart of the city! We celebrated the anniversary here and everything was amazing form start to finish! My personal fav was the duck and my husband enjoyed roasted wagyu striploin. Salmon crudo and oshi sushi were great too. The space and atmosphere were nice, and server was very attentive. Handwritten card for anniversary was a very nice touch. We will definitely be back!

    The level of service was extremely disappointing, especially considering it was for a special occasion. It's crucial to have someone skilled in customer relationship management, rather than continuing to frustrate customers with their arrogant justifications.
