   Pretentious, loud and over priced. The staff were amazing though - polite, kind, helpful. The food was ok - not terrible but not amazing; portions were very small for the price. The music was so loud - felt like we were at a club, could barely talk to each other. Lastly, the setup is awful - there didn’t seem to be a seat where you weren’t “in the way” - of the entrance, the bar, the bussing area, etc.

   The ambiance was great for a fun night out. They had a live DJ—it was loud but enjoyable. The food was good, nothing extraordinary but solid. The drinks were just okay, not great. I did order an off-menu drink, so that might have played a role. Nothing was bad, but nothing stood out as particularly special or memorable. Service was mediocre. It took the server 15 minutes just to take our drink order, and our appetizers arrived well before the drinks. The server never checked in to see if I wanted another drink. When I asked what kind of steak was in one of the appetizers because it was surprisingly tender, he had no idea. While he was nice, he felt more like a food runner than an attentive server. A minor but frustrating detail—after dessert was served, he brought out another bottle of water without asking. My glass wasn’t empty, and we were nearly done with the meal, making the extra $8 charge feel unnecessary. Ironically, this was the only time he paid real attention to the table. Overall, I wouldn’t go back. Tampa has plenty of better options. But if you’re out of choices, it’s not the worst place to end up.

   We went to Ro last year for Valentines and hadn’t been back until Valentines this year and the over quality of food has gone down. Last year we got the wagyu gyoza and ordered again this and it was good but the size was a lot smaller than last year. The avacado appetizer was very very good, and we were happy with both apps. We got the broccoli tempura and they were terrible. There was no seasoning on them and the leaves were extremely wet and bland. Highly would not recommend getting them. We each got the wagyu ribeye and when it came out the steak was cold and even after reheating it it was still lukewarm. The manager tho was extremely accommodating and gave us a round of drinks on the house and an additional little chocolate ganache cake. The service definitely saved the experience, but overall the food this year compared to last year was very disappointing and we don’t know if we will be back.

   It was so tasty and great staff and atmosphere . The nigiri was fantastic and fresh must come back for omkase lunch . I wish the drink were at little more balance in flavor profile . But over 9/10 i do recommend .

   We had a great time! The food was amazing, our drinks were equally delicious. Everyone was so nice and the many touches for Valentine’s Day were so thoughtful and sweet - from a rose to the chocolate covered strawberries and ice cream. Everyone was in the holiday spirit and it truly helped my friend and I enjoy the day.

   Interesting menu ... an eclectic blend of Asian foods ... Bao buns, noodles and a tiny sushi bar. Out of Asian beers on my visit... long list of Sakes...
