    As someone who has worked in hospitality for a long time I am very empathic to other people in the industry. However, the service was horrible. The food was terrible. There is nothing worse than paying a lot of money for bad food. Beyond disappointing.

    While the venue is lovely and menu is extensive, the service was not as attentive as you would hope for the price point.

    We ordered kingfish sashimi which was good. For our main we order sukiyaki which was quite disappointing. The soup was too diluted so it was almost tasteless and the mushroom was bitter. Honestly this was the first time we ate bitter fresh mushroom. The wagyu meat also not good it smelt like frozen meat Overall the dinner wasn’t quite what we expected

    Everything was amazing. The food was incredible. Two of our party are vegans and were very happy with the availability of vegan options. I would love to see a “feed me” menu that doesn’t include dessert.

    Went for dinner with my wife last night, the food was fantastic! Service was quality too. Highly recommend the salmon tacos, kingfish sashimi and especially the chicken bao. Was a little surprised the restaurant was a little on the quiet side given the high quality food they offer.
