If you're looking for an authentic sushi experience this is the place for you. We've dined here many times but this was our first time at the Chefs table for Omakase. I have had sushi at a lot of places and this was by far one of the best Omakase experiences I have ever had.

The Chophouse themed dinner was simply amazing! The Waldorf Salad - so simplistic but one of the best salad courses I may have ever eaten. And the baked potato cart - I splurged for the black truffle add-on. I may never eat a baked potato again because I know it’ll never be this good. Once again all of the staff were so friendly and accommodating to all of my questions. I truly love the laid back atmosphere - hard to believe as always this gem is hidden in White Center.
