Wakame salad was delicious. The Korean chicken was perfectly spicy and the Ocean Drive had plenty of avocado, tuna and yellow fin. Ask for Alexsandra, her service made the evening

Overall, the food was okay and tasted decent, but I was disappointed that the staff forgot to vent the container for the fried calamari. Because the container was sealed without any ventilation, the steam made the calamari soggy by the time we got it. Fried food should stay crispy, so this was a letdown. Hope they pay more attention to packaging in the future.

Food never disappoints. The only time we saw a service take a dip was when they were busy but even then, we could tell that the waitress did her best to keep up with the food traffic.

Wonderful food and table service was great.
Two issues: when we arrived they have a table about two feet from the entrance far too close for people to sit it was cold out so every time someone came in a freezing blast hit us and hey we aren’t greeters to every person arriving! We asked about moving at first they told us it was the only table available but my wife saw someone leave so asked or basically told the server we were moving. We saw the next couple get the same table and the moment they saw an open table they just moved without asking because it’s that bad of a spot! I give them a lot of credit ha! The other issue is now for the menu you have to do the old scan of the QR code on your phone and scroll around on your phone to select food that’s a cheapo way of saving on menus or a tablet for a place with higher end pricing as the reason you go out is for the experience not to look up what you want to order on your phone like Dominos or something! So get rid of table next to the door and get normal menus! Thank you!

Ordered takeout and paid $94 for two people. Everything tasted fishy. A few hours later and it’s not sitting well.

Too expensive but very fresh maki rolls. The atmosphere is beautiful but I feel like it isn’t very inviting. It’s too Americanized. The service was good. It’s very clean and modernized. It cost $130 for 2 people. We had 3 maki rolls, miso soup, sake, and wakabe seaweed salad.
