    Some of the food was amazing: The aubergine starter, the crispy brussel sprouts, the sushi and sashimi. also the ice creams. I was a bit disappointed in the rainbow roll because it had a funny oniony taste. Service was rather slow - they were very busy. But they were friendly and very helpful when asked for anything. nice chilled ambience.

    The best sushi I’ve ever had! I’m American and I’ve had plenty but nothing compares to the Dragon roll I had here!

    Place is small, better for larger groups where you can have the corner to yourself. Food is good but very pricey. Gin & tonic was served Ina regular water glass and tonic water was already added before it arrived at the table. Bottles water overpriced - O Toro tuna fantastic as well as matcha ice cream.
