Ordered take out from this restaurant. I got the chicken and beef lo mein , brown rice and crab ragoon. I was not a fan of the brown rice but the lo mein was delicious.

Update: After no owner response and checking out other recent reviews I noticed they respond fairly often to 5 star reviews and not as often to the negative. I am very disappointed that the owners don't seem to care about negative experiences that people have at their establishment. When we order 3 kani salads and all 3 are filled with dirty looking water at the bottom is unacceptable. Especially for someone with stage 4 cancer that is currently going through treatment and my immune system is extremely compromised I expected higher standards at a more expensive restaurant. This besides being disgusting in a normal situation could have ended up very easily with me becoming very sick from having dirty water in my salad. Not to to mention that the waitress STILL brought us a bill with all 3 salads on it and when I asked why we were charged for them in the condition they where brought out in she only took 2 of them off the bill. Very sad that the owners don't seem to care about people having poor experiences. Glad my review has over 4,000 views and at least their customer base is seeing it.

The food was almost amazing. The biggest disappointment (and the reason for the 2 lost stars) was that the Kani salads that the 3 of us ordered were not what we expected at all. I have never had a Kani salad anywhere that had so much lettuce. Everywhere else I have ordered it I received a dish that was primarily kani with dressing and masago. We initially noticed that the lettuce was so wet that it was splashing water all over the table, after looking closer at my bowl I noticed there was a huge amount of water in the bowl making my salad more of a soup (picture of water is atrached). All 3 of our bowls were filled with a significant amount of water. I brought this to the waitress's attention and she immediately apologized and offered to bring us all new salads, we did decline the replacement salads because it was such a turn off to have the $11 salads presented so poorly. Once we finished the meal I noticed all 3 salads were still on the receipt and I asked to have them taken off since we had all only had a few bites before we noticed, she only took 2 of the salads off at that time.

While the salad issue was a large downside, we did enjoy the rest of our meal and the sushi was fantastic!

The food is fantastic, looks like they updated the interior. I love the red curry, chicken wings and summer roll.

Horrible service! Went in this evening, Monday, as a party of 3, there was no wait and plenty of open tables. We were sat and waited 15 mins to even be acknowledged, meanwhile many servers passed by and had made eye contact. The food was delicious, however we were never checked on during our meal, despite our server stopping at neighboring tables numerous times. She actually went to the table next to us 4 times while dirty dishes sat waiting to be cleared from ours. Finally got her attention to ask for a check which took about another 15 minutes. Will likely never be back, not worth it for $140.

Have been here several times and always enjoyed a great meal. Surprised by the recent lower rating but decided to go back and try the food anyway.
We enjoyed our soup and entrees. Service was good and staff helpful. Even prepared Prik Nam Pla for us when requested. Will go back again.

If Erin was not the bartender we would’ve left. A mess! No one in charge, bar missing wines, short staffed, take out place
Lucky to have Erin

I ordered off of DoorDash. I ordered a tuna roll and a tempura shrimp roll. The tuner roll only had six pieces and The shrimp tempura roll only had five pieces which was strange and less than you would get anywhere else. Not to mention that it was wildly overpriced and comparison to all the other sushi restaurants I have gone to and received more from. Also ordered a toffee cake and it was basically a donut for $16. Definitely not going back. It is a huge waste of money at a time when everybody needs to save every cent they can.

GET THE SPICY EDAMAME!!! That is all. Quite literally the greatest I've ever had, in any Asian restaurant. No big deal. Get it or you're a loser

I am never disappointed. The food was delicious. The service was great and it was busy after we sat down. She was still very attentive.

The service here has absolutely gone downhill. Every online order I've placed, no matter how far in advance, is never ready when I arrive to pick it up. I end up standing and waiting anywhere from 10 to nearly 45 minutes on one occasion. The in-house service is not much better. The last time we were there, my drinks sat on the bar for nearly 15 plus minutes, I could have gotten up and gotten them myself far quicker than they arrived. The food here remains delicious, and I enjoy the atmosphere, but man! The service needs to improve.
