   Regular customer with 10+ visits per year for the past 5 years. Some of the wait staff on this visit were preoccupied for with chit chatting instead of addressing ours or other tables concerns. We had to request from another wait team member to help us, and the other tables had to go to the front host area to get their check and pay due to delays.

   I’ve been coming to this restaurant for years—probably at least 30 times—but after this last visit, I’m seriously disappointed. We were the first ones to arrive with appointment and got stuck with the only tiniest table, barely big enough for our food. I used to order a lot but couldn’t this time. We politely asked for a larger table twice and were turned down both times. Meanwhile, every other couple that came in after us, even walk-ins, got seated at bigger tables with no issue. It felt really unfair, and honestly, it ruined the whole experience. When we asked why, the manager gave us some lame excuses that didn’t make any sense.

    The seafood is incredibly fresh, the oysters and sashimi were delicious. I highly recommend this spot!
