Had a great meal there, the waiter Giovanni was super knowledgeable about the menu and nice.
Food was delicious, nigiri was a1, our server David was a rockstar with great energy and passion
An amazing meal! Everything was so delicious. Well worth the price point. The crab rangoon was some of the best I’ve ever had. We tried the soufflé dessert “cheesecake” which was the lightest fluffiest pancake I’ve ever eaten. Sooooo good!! And the sesame ice cream waffle dessert was most definitely a favorite!
