Every dish truly amazed me! The flavors, presentation, and attention to detail were outstanding. I’m a huge fan of uni, and theirs was absolutely delicious — fresh, rich, and unforgettable. The chef and staff were incredibly warm and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!

The exclusivity and attention to detail in this culinary haven were unparalleled. From the moment we walked in, it felt like an intimate gathering of food enthusiasts. The chef's omakase menu was a mesmerizing journey through sushi perfection, with rare ingredients and artistic presentations that left us in awe. The personalized service and wine pairings elevated the experience to new heights. The ambiance exuded sophistication and exclusivity. While it may be "Friends Only" in name, this is a destination worth befriending for an unforgettable dining experience.

Overall, the ingredients at this restaurant definitely deserve a 5-star rating. While the prices are steep, I would still consider giving it a 5-star review if the service and dining experience were outstanding. Unfortunately, our visit was marred by racial discrimination, despite the otherwise good service.
The restaurant automatically adds a 20% gratuity, so I expected high standards of service. However, a female server's discriminatory behavior significantly affected our dining experience and spoiled what had started as a delightful meal.
During a birthday celebration, we noticed that she gave special birthday wishes to another table, which made us feel like we were being treated differently. Although the food quality remained the same, the disparity in service was troubling. The most concerning incident occurred when, as we were leaving, she assisted the other table with their coats but made us retrieve our own from the rack. This behavior only reinforced our feelings of her unprofessionalism, disrespect, and racial discrimination (we were the only Asian guests).

I had the best premium uni I have tasted to date, it was so creamy and sweet. The set menu price is definitely on the higher end, but I felt that everything was of high quality. The quality of all the fish was devine. We ended the night with some truffle ice cream; just had the right level of subtleness. Overall we had a great meal.
Truly an amazing experience. Sake pairing opened me up to a new world of sake.

An outstanding omakase experience - elevated from the service to the food. As a non-uni lover, I was truly blown away by their uni courses.

Everything is so mediocre. Dry aged fish is not my thing. For a place that charges $400pp, it’s ridiculous that the sushi rice fell apart. Way overpriced. Shota is much better at this price range.

Truly for "Friends Only!" Ten seats at an "L"-shaped raw bar. Got to chat and share experiences with all the guests AND the staff. Made a lot of "Friends" tonight and got to share dining at its finest and food of superior quality and taste!
