The food was amazing. It was fresh and they put a lot of effort into presentation. The food comes out pretty quickly and I could appreciate having multiple wait staff attend to the table. It took us almost 20 mins to be seated after our reservation time. But it was Christmas Day so maybe that’s the reason. I would definitely go back. Order the Wagu tacos.
