Really enjoy the food here. Raw fish is very fresh, beef and kimchee fried rice delicious, rock shrimp and poke bowls superb, tuna tatake salad always a good choice. Don’t be alarmed by the cheese in the beef and kimchee fried rice. I know it sounds weird but it works really well . Try it! You will be pleasantly surprised. Table next to us had the duck and they said it was excellent too.

The 2 hour rule for parties under 6 isn’t a good idea. By the time we got done with our appetizers and cocktails and dinner arrived with our bottle of wine we were near the 2 hour mark. The waiter started hovering over us and checking on our table rushing us out. With tip our meal and drinks for 3 was close to $400 and the had us on the clock. 👎🏼

I knew this was a pricier restaurant, my only real complaint was you were not handed the menus. They just set them on the table and said the waiter would be over. We sat in the atrium, to get there you have to cross over the main path of a very busy kitchen, our hostess had no problem getting through but I didn’t feel comfortable getting in everyone’s way and had to wait for them to stop. The grilled octopus was fantastic! We also had the Cuban tostones and the fried red snapper, all very good.

I would’ve given it 3 1/2 stars but OpenTable doesn’t have half stars. Overall it was an enjoyable evening. Our waiter Christian was very nice and efficient. Food was good, not great. We enjoyed everything we ate but nothing was a stand out. We ate outside and that was quite enjoyable.

We are a group of restaurant industry professionals and had heard a lot of great things about Casa Sensei, so we were very excited to get a table. There were some food and drink items that were great, others that should not have been served. Great: blue crab rangoon, seared octopus (the best thing we had), bbq beef and kimchi fried rice, all three sushi rolls. Not great: the fried red snapper was so overcooked, dry and flavorless (although the sauce was good). The kimchi butter popcorn was weirdly cold and sticky. The melontini cocktail was made with watermelon puree from a melon that was not ripe, so it was a flat, bland drink with weird texture. We sat with empty drink glasses from our first round on the edge of the table waiting to be picked up all meal and never were. The food runners were excellent, but our server did not wish to buss any dirty dishes and no bussers came by. Overall I would give it a 3.5/5 but with some minor tweaks and more attention to detail there is a potential for an outstanding meal.
