A very beautiful restaurant with lots of nice little touches. I especially liked the wallpaper in the washroom. The sushi was very fresh but the rice was under seasoned and a bit undercooked. We were a bit disappointed by the quality of the chopsticks we received. The steak tataki was very good but arrived cold, instead of room temperature.
