Wish I had known it was aFrench susi restaurant when my son picked it...the special rolls were 7.50 for 1 piece of sushi .. and while my son said it was good it was way overpriced for a small amount of food ..
Absolutely delicious! Try the oysters and duck confit. Everything is made from scratch. The chef even imports his edamame!
