Sat at the chefs counter-the yakitori was high quality and everything was seasoned well, but the service is what took this above and beyond! Immediately greeted with great warmth from
the hostess upon entering but our server Tiri was especially exceptional throughout the night. She was very kind, accommodating and knowledgeable, which only made everything that much better.
