We loved the sushi selection from chef’s omakase menu, and delicate delicious cooked food from the kitchen. Overall, we had a great experience at Sushi Kashib, even though chef Shiro Kashiba wasn’t represent.

You have to know what you are looking for or use GPS to find the Pink Door. It has a speakeasy feel to it. Loved the ambiance and everything about the place. We ate in the lounge where the entertainment was, which was great. For a more formal experience try the dining room at the back. It has the views. The Pink Door offers a wonderful evening of food and entertainment. Our server Dina was great.

Great place for Christmas. The service was really great despite folks having to work on the holiday. The feast was superb. This was the first time my husband and I tried the restaurant. We'll go back to try their regular menu sometime.
