    So we had a date night here, it was amazing. The best evening we’ve had in Barbados. We went on a Friday night and there was a stunning vocalist until about 10pm who was singing requests in the outside seating area. We sat inside so it was a bit cosier, all staff were attentive and friendly. The food was amazing, I’d say for the money it was quite expensive, but for the experience and quality it was superb. We’ve eaten at many places around Barbados and we think this was our favourite. The cocktails were also delicious. Faves from the evening: Nishi Bento Box, Firecracker roll, Bao Buns, salmon nigiri

    Food was yummy - had appetisers and sushi for main. We were sat outside and it was really dark had to put torch on to read the menu. We asked them to increase the lighting which they did but still struggled to see what we were eating - didn’t want to ask a 2nd time. Will ask fur inside table next time. There was a lady singing which was great and the waitress was really attentive and happy - clearly loved her job. We will be back !

    Excellent food and service. Spoiled by cigarette smoke wafting into our food area from the adjacent ‘lounge area’ near the front door. I mentioned this to our waiter. Very annoying which negatively affected an otherwise very pleasant evening.
