    The overall experience was good — nothing in particular was wrong at all, but the experience was also not necessarily mind blowing. Not in a bad way, I just kept thinking that it was a slightly elevated PF Chang’s type experience all the way around. Best dish — Fish Carpaccio. Might be better if we sat on the balcony overlooking the ocean/beach in the distance. We sat at the bar and it had a bit too much of a hotel bar feeling for us.

    Food flavours were inconsistent. The fried rice was bland and felt like they forgot the seasoning.

    My wife, 8 month old son, and I had an evening reservation. The staff accommodated our enormous stroller. The restaurant is very open and has almost an open upscale treehouse vibe. My wife really enjoyed the signature old fashioned. We had the Lobster Miso Soup, followed by the A5 Wagyu Carpaccio, and we shared the Ribeye, Sautéed Green Beans, with a side of white rice. Everything was amazing from start to finish.

    Decent but seems the restaurant isn’t closely maintained. Bright lighting, flickering lights in various locations and seems a bit worn out. Food was decent. Service solid.

    Server did not care to ask for a drink. Appetizers were served after main course. No communication from server. I have been there before but compared to last time it was bad this time. Some food picture on wall are not being served. They should take them out if not serving.
