Reserved a spot on the roof top patio, atmosphere and decor is great and perfect for a date night. Drinks were amazing, sushi was fantastic, and my girlfriends teriyaki steak was to die for.
September 2025
Food was good, but not inexpensive. Drinks were good. Service was slower and less attentive than we’d have expected at this price point. Music was very loud, which is the vibe that they’ve intended, so just know that going in. We had a reservation for 2 and was seated at a table for 6 so that was a bit awkward. It was our first time here and while I’d probably eat there again if with friends who recommended, would not be in a rush to rebook a reservation myself.

Almost a fast food restaurant, having too few staff running around , they don’t have time to serve customers, just take orders. Food was average, nothing special , cocktails overpriced. Disappointing
