I’m often skeptical when a restaurant is so highly rated but this place did not disappoint. From the reservation ease through the entire experience it was nothing less than absolutely perfect. The dining room, staff and food were fantastic, one of the rare occasions in this city.

It’s one amazing place with beautiful decor and outstanding service! The servers are very attentive and come and change your plates in between and asking how’s everything and pay full attention to your needs and food was swamping too ! Spicy edamame and mushrooms in snacks and kimchi rice and molten cake were so yummy ! But it’s on very pricey side and for the price the food is really very small quantity 😊

The food was amazing. It was fresh and they put a lot of effort into presentation. The food comes out pretty quickly and I could appreciate having multiple wait staff attend to the table. It took us almost 20 mins to be seated after our reservation time. But it was Christmas Day so maybe that’s the reason. I would definitely go back. Order the Wagu tacos.

The hostess' treatment was rude, she was very impatient and spoke in a disrespectful tone, the treatment of the waiters was excellent, they gave us recommendations and the conversation with them was pleasant, but the service at the entrance leaves a lot to be desired
