    We were still hungry after we had $160/person meal. It was tiny place, so whenever someone opened the front door, the cold wind will blow in (Nov) -felt like you were in a tent. The service was good but the meal or atmosphere for the price paid just couldn’t be justified.

    Delicious restaurant with beautiful interior decorations and gregarious, friendly staff. Really enjoy the set course experience and the meat is divine. Highly recommend for special occasions.

    Great service, but menu is limited and food isn’t impeccable enough to justify the price.

    Horrifying - basically 0 food for a 500$ bill (2ppl) just honestly terrible. Also a street vendor/ homeless walked in at the end trying to sell us things and the staff was welcoming him - disgusting experience for horrible food and outrageous pricing.

    All A5 all the time! This is a luxury experience with sauces and accompaniments that try to level up to the A5 beef with gourmet preparations and unique delicate flavors. The ponzu was exquisite with citrus and dried fish flavors. If you just want meat go somewhere else. Come here if you want a super special meal where the A5 is the star but the rest of team is talented and playing hard as well.
