    The food and service was excellent. The octopus appetizer is amazing and the rolls are to die for. Each of our party of 5 loved their entrees. Our server was wonderful and was very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu items. Love this place.

    Food, ambiance and service were all excellent. But the only thing that was amiss was despite mentioning that we were celebrating birthday nothing special was done to acknowledge. That would have been a nice touch. Anything with a candle on it would have made our dining experience wholesome and it left it lacking.
