Excellent food and service. Spoiled by cigarette smoke wafting into our food area from the adjacent ‘lounge area’ near the front door. I mentioned this to our waiter. Very annoying which negatively affected an otherwise very pleasant evening.

From the moment we arrived we were treated like valued guests which is unique these days. Our table was well situated. The young lady that assisted us was friendly and articulate. The food was amazing with well developed flavours and textures. None of the cooked proteins were over or under cooked. And the Sushi was an adventure. Favourite dish: fish of the day

Thank you for making our experience absolutely amazing! Exceptional food and service. The sushi was fresh, tasty, and excellently prepared. The lamb shanks were mouth watering and the vegetables added to the overall flavourful dish. The shank is better than the one at Lonestar! Again, thank you making our visit truly memory making.

The food was very delicious, we didn’t waste anytime with digging in. Each time our server came to check our description was “sooo yummy”, ended up ordering more just because the starters were THAT GOOD. Drinks were well crafted and paired perfectly with everything we ate. 1000/10 definitely recommend ‼️

Went for our anniversary and had the lobster Maki which is excellent and my husband had the Dynamite sushi roll. He asked if he could get the tempura lobster tail that came with my lobster Maki, and they accommodated this special request for an additional charge. We stayed on after dinner for some drinks and enjoyed everything about the night. Food is amazing, ambiance in the courtyard is awesome and the staff is great.
