    The smoked grilled salmon was delicious and the green tea cream brûlée was amazing. My family had the teriyaki chicken and teriyaki salmon which they enjoyed. Not a place that we would say we need to go back to.

    Had the toro tuna flight, delicious. The salmon skin salad, crispy strips of the skin atop iceberg, very nice. The monkfish liver salad was tantalizing , medallions of monkfish liver on cucumber slices with a tangy ponzu sauce. The server was polite, professional, there when needed him.
