    Rice was cold, cuts of fish ok but nothing memorable, service was sub par, and the tempura was not tempura. It was batter.

    My wife and I went for the lunch omakase to celebrate my birthday. The sushi chef was extremely accommodating and friendly. I appreciated the minimalistic style of the restaurant and the ambiance was warm and welcoming. They played Japanese city pop music in the background which is a plus for me as well. The omakase had a variety of fish from fatty tuna to uni. Each piece was as good as the last and my favorite for sure was the chu-toro and the uni with salmon roe. We also ordered some unagi and mentaiko and everyone needs to try these as well. I will definitely be back for more!

    If this was a rating for a normal Sushi restaurant, perhaps I would give it a 5 star. However, I am rating an Omakase experience from what I was informed a Michelin chef. The highs; decent service, clean environment and very creative course execution. 2 seatings with about 6-8 guests per seating is reasonable with one chef. The not so high; Average meat quality, doubtful freshness of at least one of the items served, strange textures and very very poor and misfit desert consisting of a scoop of grocery quality green tea ice cream with 2 small pieces of strawberry garnish. At $220 per person ($300 with tax and gratuity), the expectation should be high. In conclusion, did not meet my expectation. Some others within the same price category in OC and LA gives a better overall experience. Finally, a crew of 2 (including the chef) visible staff is not enough to provide the expected service level. The server can leave the strong perfume for a different environment. The above is a constructive critique. It is intended to shed light on my personal experience that day and perhaps build on that and other reviews to improve further. I believe one visit is not usually enough to make an accurate assessment of a food establishment. I believe they try hard and wish them success.

    The craftmanship and quality of food is impeccable. Probably the best omakase experience I've ever had. Chef Alex and Chef Naldo who came from a Michelin starred restaurant was amazing. The attention to detail these 2 master chefs had was incredible. And the price I feel is cheaper than some of these other Omakase restaurants. Quality and price hands down!
