    The crab was an incredible, the scallops were great and the brussel sprouts were ok. I think they needed something more like balsamic glaze perhaps?

    Really great food! I don't usually like rolls that are too "out there" however we tried their "Bonecrusha" and their "El Maniakz". It was very good. To be fair, this place is advertised as a sushi place and they only have a few rolls. Regardless, their "bonecrusha" has to have been the best sushi roll I've ever had. Service was good. Nothing incredible, but she checked up regularly and was polite. There was never a bad interaction or a time where I was irritated. Ambiance was really awesome!!! Very nice low lighting, beautiful decor everywhere. Overall a 10/10 dining experience.

    Recommend to valet at hotel. It's pricey but they literally detail your car while you're at dinner. I had no idea and was so happy after we got our car. Inside and out!! So that was a plus. Anyway, restaurant is so cute. We were stay at a large table with a leather couch and was so low to table, but the host did offer alternative table but we chose to stay because it was comfortable. Haha Drinks very nice! They have anything you want. We ordered sushi and boy, was it spectacular. We had some salmon nigiri which were so fresh and melted in your mouth. Excellent quality fish. We tried bezerk, geisha, meniakz, surf & turf, goddess. All great, but meniakz my favorite. The waitress and all the helpers were so attentive and helpful. Always asking if we needed anything, brining water, taking dirty plates. We shared dessert and strawberry shortcake was not only very tasty, but so cute. Great experience!
