This was our 2nd time dining at Hummingbird and it was even more delicious. Everyone from the chef to the host and all the servers are so kind and helpful. It really feels like their team is a family:) We sat at a cozy table this time (although highly recommend the bar if you can get a spot to watch the chef and his team work.) All the fish is incredibly fresh and all the flavors of the sauces really complement without overpowering. Favorites are the tuna handrolls, yellow tail tostada & the shrimp dumplings which are on the spicy side but so yummy! The word is out, so definitely make a reservation.
