    The menu was plentiful with variety, but the most popular starter fried chicken bites were underwhelming in flavor and heavy on the syrupy sweet sauce...all I could taste was sticky sauce. Crispy salmon rice cakes lacked flavor and were a touch fishy vs fresh and mild. My sushi roll with fried shrimp and avocado was average, with some of the avocado slices over-ripe so it tainted the entire bite when you got a bad one. Music was crazy loud for early brunch on a Sunday...in the evening I can understand, but we could barely hear our friends across the table and felt like we were yelling the entire lunch. Service was attentive and pricing was fair. Our lunch was just average....we have not been for dinner.

    While I’m sure there is the possibility of a great meal/evening, ours was just ok. We sat for 15 minutes before anyone even acknowledged us, and we were 4 ft from the bar…busy area. We FINALLY put in a drink and appetizer order and that went ok. Edamame was excellent. The rest of our order was taken a bit more timely. Our fried rice was lukewarm. They delivered our sushi and then disappeared again. We finally gave up on getting any more to drink or dessert and just left. Thankfully we were staying at the hotel or it would have been a very disappointing trip for dinner. Having had a reservation we expected better.

    Jackie with the “crab earrings “ was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and very nice, but we ended moving to the main dining area instead of the high tops. Franco was our server and he was equally knowledgeable and did a very good job, very thorough. Tim really stood out to me who delivered the food. He was very nice, polite and very professional. You can tell he took pride in what he was doing and gets the “customer experience.” The “team” all together with the ambiance made a nice evening! Food came out super fast too!
