The restaurant decor was modern with a hint of nautical so immediately we appreciated the thought put into the overall dining experience. The waitstaff were polite, attentive and friendly. We enjoyed a variety of small plates including the nigiri (the salmon was outstanding), tuna tataki, Australian sliced steak, and miso cod. The special sea bream with Asian slaw and new potatoes was also excellent. To our surprise, a new favorite cocktail is now the lychee and cucumber martini.
