    I think we ended up ordering everything on the menu at this lovely restaurant, and our eyes were definitely bigger than our stomachs. I have to say all the food tasted sooooooo good, but if I had to pick, the stand outs were: the chicory salad, the shrimp, and the black cod. Great for large groups. Highly recommend!

    The food here was absolutely fantastic and unlike anything we’ve ever had before—we loved trying something so unique! Every dish was full of flavor and really memorable. The staff were incredibly attentive and on top of everything, especially Megan, who was so friendly and helpful. She went above and beyond by giving us great recommendations for exploring the city, which we really appreciated. The atmosphere was just as impressive—fun, lively, and full of energy. It made the whole dining experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something a little different and a great vibe!

    A nice elevated asian inspired restaurants. They have a wide range option of dishes that you can enjoy from a small dishes to large dishes. I would say overall experience is 4.5. Their small bites such as Tuna Poke and Duck Liver Mousse are executed well. Not an unseen or super creative dish but it’s just simple and delicious. The kinilaw is packed with various flavor. It’s more balance than a typical kinilaw that I’ve had which is good. The sword fish katsu personally fall a little short for me. The fish was executed well but I feel the sauce doesn’t showcase their work like other dishes. To me when the sauce is on the mild side, it should be complex. Since the fish katsu (fried fish) is already intense with fish flavor and frying also makes the dish richer. So, I would expect the sauce to held up to the fish itself. Desserts are great overall. Anyway, it’s a good place if you expect a good time

    Upscale vibe, standout cocktails, but inconsistent kitchen. We had a pleasant evening here; the ambiance is upscale, modern, and genuinely fun—perfect for a date night and first date. Our servers were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. The cocktails were the highlight, specifically the clarified coconut drink. On the food side, it was a bit of a mixed bag for the price point ($115/person). The taro puffs, pork chop, and mochi were good and the only dishes I’d reorder. The tuna poke, rice, black cod, and baked Alaska (very disappointed) didn't quite hit the mark. We also noticed a significant lag time between our starters and mains. While it’s a great spot for a drink and the atmosphere, the food value doesn't quite reach the level of competitors like Kokkari. I’ll give it another shot in the next couple of years. Pro Tip: Parking is extremely difficult—take a taxi.

    Excellent service & extrem friendly staff! The food, we had the swordfish was really good - lovely flavor combination! We had as starter the bao, which was ok , but the flavor profile was a little too boring to me ( especially after comparing it to the fish !) As appetizer , we had the calmari - the whole combination didn't work for me - broccoli too dominat & only little pieces of calamari. The fish definitely a 5 star, the bao , 3 star, the calamari 2 . Dessert : matcha & passionfruit/ lime cheesecake = really liked the flavor and the cardamom cream !
