    We came here for my sister’s birthday dinner as we both have had yakiniku in Japan and she loves it. The restaurant is very private and has a nice ambiance. We both got the signature omakase, and it was a good amount of food for both of us. However, we both don’t eat a ton so if you are hungry or eat more generally it may not be enough food for you. Our server was also very attentive and made sure to explain each cut of meat to us carefully. The meat quality is great and the various seasonings they let us try were great. One drawback here is that the omakase only includes the meat (you have to pay to add anything else—salad, rice, dessert, etc) and we wished a little that we had something to eat between the meats. For this price point you would expect maybe some other things to be included in this set, as other omakase usually have. Additionally, I had asked the hostess if they did anything special for birthdays but they don’t really offer anything of that kind. I would say maybe just don’t expect a lot if you are coming for a special occasion as it will be more just like a standard meal.

    First time there the waiter, Jonathan walked us through what to experience. It was the most incredible mood I’ve ever eaten. I really appreciated his expertise and it was a great meal.

    The cuts of meat were really good but the omakase didn’t come with anything but the meat, had to order sides such as kimchi and radish separately and dessert wasn’t included either. Usually when we order omakase, it’s an entire set starting from appetizers, to sides and dessert. Especially for $180 per person before taxes and gratuity, it was a bit surprising. The waiter and waitress were nice and friendly when we interacted with them, but not very attentive aside from changing our plates out often. They had asked if we prefer to grill our meat or have them grill it, which we responded for them to grill it but they ended up grilling it just half the time. That may be on us though as maybe if we waited longer they would’ve come to grill, but the grills were burning sometimes so we went ahead and did it ourselves. Honestly it was a bit underwhelming for an omakase experience overall that cost $200+ per person total and we wouldn’t return.
