Food was extremely overpriced and we left hungry. Spent over $500 for a family of 4 and had 2 kids and 2 adults. Very limited sushi options and sushi was bland. Service was decent but would not go back because of the insane prices.

I don’t normally write bad reviews, however the himachi portion was embarrassingly small, the heaters kept being turned off while we were sitting outside to accommodate a different table over ours, and they ran out of lobster and crispy rice on a Saturday night.

First time at a Japanese restaurant with no miso soup, cucumber salad, Sapporo, Kirin or Asahi, out of multiple sakes on their menu. Service slow and got many things wrong in my order

Our bill was $1k. We had 4 alcoholic drinks total. Rolls were $40-50 each and not very flavorful. The patio setting was nice, but a little chilly even with the heaters. Service was just ok.
