    Carlos was new and tried to do his best. It was a little rushed and he forgot a few ingredients here and then which was noticed and mentioned by another employee who was standing behind him the whole time supervising him. This would have been fine if the supervisor would have not had a super bad attitude always loudly complaining and scolding him noticably. I had some foreign guests with me so it would have been fun if they‘d be able to use the torch like was done with the other group but not for us. Have been at SbB several times - if this was my first time I would definitely not come back!

    The food was very good as was the service, but it is not a good experience as they hurry you through either the 12 or 17 courses as they only have one hour to serve you,so if you like a dining experience, do not come to this restaurant

    Delicious with excellent service! Drinks and extra sushi pieces are very pricey but the $65 standard omakase is a very good value. Repeat customer and I will be back!
