Stopped by because we have one in atlanta and heard good things about that location - did not disappoint! Glad 30a now has a "fancy" restaurant! The deco and moody ambiance were top notch. Service was great and the sushi was delicious! Found it to be very well priced, sushi rolls were great proportions too.

Food and drinks were exceptional. Lamb, Riley, seafood pasta, mushroom ravioli and beet salad with salmon. Baked brie appetizer. Felt rushed by hostess clearing plates before entire party had finished eating.
