Reviews
Service was genuinely great. Our server checked in consistently for water refills, cleared plates quickly, and asked if we needed anything — but never felt overbearing. That balance is appreciated and made the experience smoother.
One thing worth noting: some menu prices are higher than you might expect, especially since Google lists the average around $20–$30 per person. For some of the higher-priced items, photos on the menu would really help set expectations. The portions do help justify the entrée pricing somewhat, but the overall bill — $110 for a late lunch for two — was honestly higher than expected.
We started with the spicy edamame. To make it spicy was a $2 upcharge, which felt unnecessary — most places offer regular, sea salt, or spicy at the base price. That rubbed me the wrong way.
For sushi, we ordered two pieces of unagi and two pieces of wagyu. The fish/meat to rice ratio was generous (see picture). The unagi sushi is something a sushi chef can’t really mess up — solid and as expected. The wagyu sushi, however, had a very intense char on top and was extremely fatty. Depending on your preference, that could be a plus or a bit overpowering.
The spicy beef rice bowl was a very large portion — honestly enough to split between two people. The onions had a nice crunch and weren’t soggy, which I appreciated. The beef is shaved rather than sliced, and you can’t choose how it’s cooked. The spice level was faint, should have spice level indicators on items like this. I did feel like the dish was missing another vegetable element that could have elevated it.
The chicken curry bento box came with a lot: two tempura shrimp, two deep-fried pork gyoza, one sweet potato tempura, sticky rice, and the curry chicken. The chicken was very tender. The curry had that strong, classic curry aroma and was well balanced in flavor. Nothing to rave about. Both meals came with miso soup and salad. The salad dressing wasn’t for me; I prefer something tangy, and this one tasted more like pan juices from cooked meat.
For dessert, we tried the vanilla crepe cake. It honestly tasted like tiramisu. If they offered a matcha version, that might have set it apart more. I wouldn’t order it again.
Overall, I’m glad we tried it and had the experience. The service and portion sizes stood out positively. However, for the price point, it’s not a “must-return” spot for me, and not somewhere I’d immediately recommend off the top of my head when people ask.
The flavors are delicious, authentic, and unique, and the presentation is absolutely stunning.
The staff is wonderful — they always make you feel special and their recommendations are always spot-on.
And let’s talk about those sushi boats… they’re simply spectacular!
Without a doubt, the best of the best.
