Came in for a quick bite! Everything we had was fabulous. One of my favorite sushi restaurants to go to when I fly in from New York. Had the toro which was to die for! Had the tuna tartare on crispy rice, the kimchi wagyu beef dumplings and my husband had the tuna and salmon avocado rolls. Normally I don’t eat salmon but here I do! I only wish there was a place that had this type of service, ambience and to die for amazing and fresh sushi in New York, which you would think existed!
