Came here for a birthday dinner. I got the silver platter. Every single thing was so good. The miso soup was really good and has mushrooms and caramelized onions. They also gave us a wonderful birthday treat!

Very ecclectic and small. I took my friend here with me before we went to a concert later on in the afternoon on Saturday. The Sushi was fresh, and the servers very attentive to our needs.
