    First time and loved it! Brought my mom for her birthday and we had the sushi nachos (interesting and delicious), sake maki, negi yellowtail, and the hot night 2.0. All were delicious and highly recommended! For dessert we had beignets with salted caramel sauce - yum! We sat outside and enjoyed the chill vibe and service was top notch as well.
