    Nice Sunday afternoon vibe when I visited. Music was more like a DJ spinning tunes but I didn’t see one if there was. We were seated near the bar at a nice table for two. Server was friendly and knowledgeable, and our food arrived quickly. Everything was delicious! There were two birthday tables seated next to me and we were happy to join in when the waitstaff sang to them. I feel like we were there during a shift change because around 4:00 the music went into a very contemplative and somber tune and our server disappeared. Another server closed our ticket so no worries there. In all, it was a good atmosphere and excellent food so I will return.

    Fantastic seafood! Fantastic service! Lovely dining room. We had a wonderful evening. The only complaint was that we were seated right next to the kitchen, so lots of servers streaming by, carts, and noise from the kitchen. Next time I will call and ask to be seated away from the kitchen. But everything else was top notch.

    It was our anniversary and we were treated like royalty. There were rose petals scattered on the table, a signed anniversary card, and greetings by both hostesses and waiter. The food was delicious and beautifully presented as always. We especially appreciated the petite portions option.

    Natasha was a great server - made our experience really wonderful. Even when there are a lot of other diners, we never wait too long for drinks or food and the quality is always top notch. Love the salmon skin roll and trying new rolls the server recommends.
