“Delicious. A respectful suggestion; the menu could be improved. There was a lot of options that seemed very similar scattered across the place. and the description was lacking. There was certain words or categories without descriptions that I wasn't sure about. It made it more difficult to choose( I will own up to my part of not knowing much about Japanese food).
It would be cool to go help them make a menu I think it would fun. If y'all want help on a menu let me know we could colab. Art, detailed breakdown of each item and some good food.“

“Such a an abundance of culinary offerings. all beautifully and masterfully prepared. Always an meal adventure. (Unfortunately, the owner has never addresses the fact that the 2016 bottles of Beuhler Chardonnay have started to turn. My friend and I each had a glass and I purchased the rest to take home. The glass at home confirmed the change in the wine which has been an all time favorite for years. Several month ago, I took the time and wrote to mention this fact. Even a 5 year old Chardonnay is pushing the limit. Sadly, I did not receive the respect of a response not to mention removing the stock that remained.“
