It was honestly a very good overall experience, however I did feel we got the worst seats at yakitori counter. And the service took longer to get to us as well on a Monday night. But the whole venue and food was outstanding, very cool atmosphere.

Sophisticated, exquisite Japanese food. Great inventiveness and visual pleasure. It’s a knock your socks off experience, especially for those who only eat sushi and sashimi. Great value for the money. I took friends there who were blown away.
