Emily was our server and provided excellent service. She helped our group select just the right amount of items to order for the table as we were all sharing. The food was so good, probably the best sushi in Fort Lauderdale. In addition, the sliced NY Strip Steak was outstanding. There was a DJ playing and set the vibe and it was an overall fun night.

Service was very good. Food was all delicious. We tried the meatball appetizer, pasta bolognese and tiramisu for dessert. Some of the best we have ever had. This was our first time there. Atmosphere was fun. Would definitely go again when in Fort Lauderdale.

This was a nice spot and the happy hour menu was really good. Customer service with the bartenders could be better. It took a while to get served and even more time elapsed before my water was refreshed. And I was at the bar eating for happy hour.
