First time going to an ayce that had both hot pot and sushi! We went for lunch and decided to get their omakase that had 8 different premium nigiris to try. Very pretty and melts on the tongue. They also have different cuts of meat to choose for your hot pot as well. The food was very filling and we ended the meal with some mochi ice cream.
So this started with a Facebook reel and we decided to give it a try on a Friday night. It was busy but we got in right away. The service is really impeccable, especially David the head waiter! We got it food quickly and it was really fresh!

The hotpot was the star of the show with several broth choices from spicy to savory. The sushi was surprisingly great. There are so many choices so we'll have to come back again just to try them all! We left full and very happy...read full review

BTW: if you don’t like wasabi, ask to remove it from the omakase set (it’s good either way but all up to preference!).

not too mention their music taste is amazing and it’s a whole vibe when you eat there :) they are also right next to brew story, the best spot to get...read full review
