    The food was amazing with the most unique and interesting flavor combinations. Our party of 4 ordered 8 plates to share-some lighter plates and some entrees. The veal, char sui pork chop and mushroom donburi were excellent. The Frito misto is served with a lime aioli and is to die for. Cocktails were interesting and delicious and we saved a bit of space to share both desserts. Yum! Service was excellent- perfectly attentive, warm and friendly without being intrusive. Fast becoming a fave restaurant for us!

    Nice quaint restaurant in an older section of town. Seems like a local favorite as it was quite busy on a weekday. There were actually 3 parties celebrating birthdays when we dined. We had the Chirashi Sushi bowl and the Salmon Special which were both delicious. Service was good even through the busyness.
