    Food was great. They seemed understaffed, so the food didn’t come out smoothly.

    Great food and friendly service. The fish was fresh and the ambiance is clean and not too loud.

    We dine at Momoya frequently. We usually order the $82 sushi and sashimi tasting combination. Usually it has generously cut sashimi. Last night it was cut very frugally by the chef on the far right of the sushi bar. I don't know if that was an aberration, or whether it reflects a sub rosa price increase in the form of smaller portions. At $82, it wasn't a good choice last night. We also ordered the black cod entree, which was very good as usual.

    We sat outside. It was very loud. The ambiance was much nicer inside. The sushi was only ok. The saki took too long to arrive (after appetizer).

    The food was excellent and truly differentiated. The service was perfect. The only complaint is that the table we had a view of the restrooms. We've been several times and will continue to keep this gem on our list of regulars.
