Went here for a dinner to host 11 people and I thought it was A-Ok. Service was great and to par. The spicy miso ramen was good and I even asked for an extra to go! Out table was long and spacious and accommodating! The staff and cooks were great and friendly! My gf ordered the sushi and Uni and it was good and delicious! The green tea is also homemade and very refillable! The reason I brought a star down was because there isn't a dessert menu and I thought we would have stayed...read full review
Dining room is gorgeous but food doesn't live up to it. Service is adequate but not especially professional. Rainbow roll: short and topped with scraps, no full slice of sashimi. Average these days. Double Hamachi roll was bland, fish okay but not super fresh. Futomaki: Akemi puts gomae wakame, seaweed salad, in their roll. It's unique to them, and goes nicely with the other veggies inside. I do wish they'd cut it thinner, however. It is tightly rolled, so big plus to the chef...read full review

Average food for expensive prices. We arrived with 6 people. The place was empty; yet the hostess would not accommodate us with another table that we preferred. We have came here a few times before and even considered hosting a party here....but will not come again. For the money I am paying, I just expect more! Too many places to pick for Japanese food in the area. Bye!
