    Outstanding experience, from the reception, the waitress, the service, the atmosphere and mainly the food and it's healthy freshness and exquisite taste. However, the resort client in bathrobes was not a nice site on a valentine's diner.

    Its a very nice place. We went for lunch but would have prefer to come for dinner for more crudo items since it was the menu we found online. We had sushis and wakame salad. Drinks were sharp.

    Everything was really good, the food definitely tasted amazing and the drinks were good. If anything my only note is that there wasn't much light on our table at night. They gave us this little lamp that died after a minute so it was hard to see the menu. Other than that, good experience ☺️
    Restaurant KatoResponded on February 6, 2025
    Thank you for your positive feedback, Isabel! We're glad you enjoyed the food and drinks. We appreciate your note about the lighting and will look into improving it. Happy to hear you had a good experience overall.

    The service, decor, fire and food were all wonderful! We started with the shrimp appetizer and the spice and dip were delicious. For dinner we selected 4 different Maki rolls - the sushi rolls were all fresh and some of the best we have had. Wine list was also great ! Highly recommend for dinner and ask for table by the fireplace in the winter.

    First time we came here about a year ago, for a mini honeymoon after getting married 2 days prior, and the service and food was amazing. This time around, service was hit and miss, more miss towards the end, but didn’t fret, as we we all having a good time celebrating my wife’s bday. Last time we came (a year ago) she really loved a certain salad they offered, and she ordered it again, for it not to be only smaller, bit also not the same taste, and was drenched in dressing. She probably had 2-3 bites, and left it. I mentioned this that it was not the same, and even showed a picture of how it was before. You would think they would have removed it from the bill and/or offer something else, but the server did neither. All the other food, esp sushi was amazing, and other guests enjoyed their food as well. Sad thing is, it was my wife’s bday and she didn’t really get to enjoy her meal entirely. Probably won’t be coming back nor recommending this place to anyone again either.
    Restaurant KatoResponded on February 3, 2025
    Hi Matt, thank you for sharing your experience. We're glad you enjoyed the sushi and previous visits, but we're sorry to hear about the inconsistencies in service and food. Your feedback is valuable, and we’ll work on improving. We appreciate your honesty.
