Food-wise, the slice hamachi was the star of the night for me, 10/10. The freshness, the texture, the flavor balance… everything just worked. It was easily my favorite dish.
The salmon belly maki also surprised me in the best way. I don’t think I’ve had salmon belly before, and paired with the truffle oil, it was rich, flavorful, and honestly another 10/10. That roll exceeded my expectations.
Now, the duck dumplings — I know a lot of reviews say they’re the favorite, but for me they were my least favorite of what I ordered. They weren’t bad at all (I’d still give them a 7/10), but I think I went in expecting something crispy or fried, and that’s not what they are. That mismatch was on me. They were good, just not the standout compared to the hamachi and salmon belly.
I was slightly skeptical about the Asian-Caribbean fusion concept before going, but everything felt cohesive and well-executed.
I also had the Sakerinha (a play on a Brazilian caipirinha), and that drink was dangerously good. I could’ve had five and needed to be wheeled out. Absolutely delicious.
Bonus points for including the service charge in the bill. As someone who doesn’t love navigating tipping culture, I appreciate when restaurants just include it upfront so there’s no guesswork.
Overall: great atmosphere, strong flavors, and a very solid experience. I’ll definitely be back.
EDIT: OK I took one dumpling home and left it overnight in the fridge. The next day I ate it cold and you guysssss it was delicious! That’s all.
What we ordered:
Sliced Hamachi 8/10 (pictured) loved the freshness of the fish and the little salad on top added a delicious texture to the dish
Seabass Crudo 6/10 (pictured) too.. wet? Fresh fish too and great flavours but hard to eat and I felt like it needed something like green onions or some sort of micro greens
Blue fin tuna maki 7/10 it was fine nothing special
Salmon belly maki 9/10 great flavour favourite sushi dish
King crab gunkan 2/10 this was what I was most excited for it just was sooo bad. The crab was way too mayod and it tasted like cold crab salad. Has huge potential to be delicious I would swap out the sauce
Smoked Brisket Croquette 8/10 (pictured) well balanced and fried perfectly.
Oxtail Udon Noodles 7/10 udon noodles perfect and oxtail cooked very well but it was too salty and I think it was just a one off cause if it wasn’t so salty it would’ve been my favourite dish of the night
Smoked short rib 3/10 (pictured) it didn’t taste smoked at all. It was blackened but lacked flavour. When you say something’s smoked the flavour has to back it up and it just DIDNT. I wish it had tho the presentation was cool
Corn bread 8/10 delicious but wish they were a tiny bit bigger!!
Corn bread merengue 8/10 I like the sauce and honestly who doesn’t love a good corn bread
Chocolate rum cake 9/10 super soft and delicious and had a nice kick of rum in it.
Ambiance 10/10 – the music the vibes were just it. I’m definitely going back to try different items. But most of our recos were made by the server (minus the sushi)
From the moment we walked in, the energy, the creativity, and the attention to detail stood out. Our server Justin was AWESOME – super knowledgeable, genuinely passionate about the menu, and made the whole experience feel elevated. The drink menu is so cool and creative, and every recommendation he gave was on point.
Must orders: the duck dumplings were insane, the BBQ TORO — OMG — that tuna belly is next level, and the smoked pork belly was unforgettable. Every bite felt intentional and packed with flavor.
KUDOS TO THE CHEF!
You can really tell this isn’t just another restaurant – it’s an experience. Amazing food, incredible service, and one of those spots that leaves you already planning your next visit. Highly recommend.
Shiso completely blew me away. Every single thing we ordered was incredible.. like, melt-in-your-mouth good. There wasn’t one dish that didn’t hit. The sushi, the ox tail udon noodles, the sea bass (best I’ve ever had), the small plates, even the burger… everything was just on another level.
I’m from out of town and honestly already trying to figure out when I can come back because this place is that good. The flavors were so balanced, the textures were perfect, and you can tell how much care goes into each dish. It’s rare to find a restaurant where every plate is a standout, but Shiso absolutely crushed it. And on top of that, every cocktail james creates is incredible!!
Great food, great vibe, great service. Truly one of those meals you think about afterward. Can’t recommend it enough.
The plates are beautifully presented, but the flavor profiles leaned a bit too aggressive for my taste. The bluefin tuna with smoked pepper relish is conceptually great, yet the relish overwhelms the fish—the acidity and heat dominate so much that the tuna itself disappears. It would shine more if the relish were treated as an accent rather than a blanket. The broccolini with fermented black bean vinaigrette and furikake is another strong idea, but again the sauce is so punchy that the vegetable gets lost. It works better as a bold contrast to rice than as a supporting side to the mains.
The BBQ pork belly gunkan had the best balance of the three dishes I tried, with good texture and seasoning, though it still didn’t quite deliver the rich, decadent bite I was hoping for. Overall, a pleasant experience with great service and drinks, but the kitchen could use a lighter hand so the quality of the ingredients can really come through. Solid 7/10.
