An excellent experience all around. The food is delicious and beautifully presented. The servers are delightful, attentive but unobtrusive. They plated a dessert for a birthday that was a charming surprise. Would dine there again any time!

Everything was great from food to service. Just be aware that on a cold day don't sit too close to the entry door as the cold wind blows in when the door opens.

Great pre-theatre option in the entertainment district. Sushi is super fresh and creative. It is an upscale experience with prices to match, but service is usually very good and ambiance is excellent. Great date night vibes as it has intimate tables and booths.
