Please do not come here for food. It’s just microwaved frozen American Chinese food. We ordered a $30 general tso’s wondering wow how can they make it fancy? They didn’t, it was just steamed broccoli with chicken nuggets on top of white rice. The $30 Singapore street noodles was equally bland and had maybe 4 pieces of shrimp. I would rather go to Panda Express or just get frozen at home. There are so many other options in seaport or just go to nearby Chinatown.

Our group enjoyed our meal — everything tasted great, the food came out fast and the drinks were top-notch. You can tell they put care into the food and the presentation, and the atmosphere made it a fun place to spend the evening. That said, the prices were definitely on the high side. The quality was good, but it still felt a little pricey for what you get. Overall though, it’s a nice spot for when you want to treat yourself or have a special night out.🤙🏼

I was here as part of an event, so it was an extremely limited menu, (only salmon or steak) but the only thing that was a pleasure to eat was the chocolate ganache tarte. The atmosphere and service was excellent, the food we were offered just left something to be desired.

My friends and I really liked this place and the sushi, we were treated well!
I just think the prices are extremely high for the small portions, and the dishes could be a bit more flavorful
I’m a junior sous chef at a restaurant in Newburyport, so I know what I’m talking about
It’s a beautiful restaurant with a good vibe and gorgeous sushi, I just think it’s too expensive

Let’s do a little live review shall we.

Got here at 11:00’got seated right away. Perfect great start.
Been seated for 20 min, someone comes by I think it’s finally waiter no it’s the busser. Ok cool finally we can get a water after 20 minutes.
Been seated for 30 min now what seems manager comes over and asks if I’m all set seeing I only have a water. I said no, no one has came by.
She says sorry let me go yell at someone finally get someone because i genuinely said I’ll just pay for the water and get out of here. Stayed because felt bad.
Finally get to order because I had 30 minutes to stare at a menu.
Ordered scallion pancakes 10/10
Nigiri was baby yellowtail and red coral shrimp.
Also got Junmai sake to go with Nigiri
Got pancakes and I think yellowtail but no sake. Been eating the pancakes for 10 minutes now waiting for the Sale to start eating the nigiri but still nothing.
Was going to order more but this is all I think I’ll be getting due to service. 1/10 because pancakes were great. Used to be a 10/10 back a couple years ago don’t know what happened since then.
Ok so now after 18 minutes got my Sake, he came over with it and let me know kitchen is closing if I want anything else. I asked if I was ever getting my Red Coral Shrimp Nigiri and he said I never ordered it. (He probably just forgot). Oh silly him.
So now can finally eat my first half of my nigiri after 18 minutes but gotta wait more now to eat the shrimp. GOTTA MAKE SURE I DONT DRINK ALL MY SAKE NOW.
7/10 Baby Yellowtail
10 minutes now and nothing on the shrimp
He came by to grab plates asked how shrimp was… haven’t gotten it yet my guy😪 at this point damn I should’ve left.
Wait there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. My Shimo finally came after 15 extra minutes pheww😅.
6/10 Red Coral Shrimp pretty mid

Yes I may have gotten here 1 hour before kitchens closed but waiting 30 minutes to ask for your order and for it to be half wrong after an extra 15 more minutes doesn’t really help either.

Edit/Update: After reading reviews guess people had a great Experience with Ivan. I actually had Ivan now looking at the receipt. Guess your treated differently here if you come by yourself cause they might think “your not running up a big tab so no big tip.” I mean I would’ve if I had the opportunity to run up the tab. I wanted to get a bunch more food😭🤣
