    Great find for us on our visit to Phoenix. Lived the heated patio on a chilly evening. Kept us warm as we enjoyed great cocktails, and delicious starters and entrees: ahi tuna poke stack, chicken tenderloins, sliders, Szechuan orange chicken, and sushi rolls. Great to have so many TV screens to watch Monday Night Football, too. Kind, attentive service as well.

    Originally I reserved a table inside but when we arrived, it was quite noisy so we requested a table outside and the receptionist was very accommodating. We truly enjoyed our experience including our waiter, food and the trivia on the monitors

    There were no red wine bottles available; we selected three, but all were sold out. I enjoy visiting this place, although it's not my family's top choice. The food came out all at once: salad, appetizer, entrée, and soup. The soup was cold.
