   I came to this restaurant to celebrate my mother’s birthday it was her first time at this restaurant. We did get there a little early but the host let me know that we will be seated closer to the reservation time. It was pass the time and we still did not get seated but then also she said there is two parties in front of me which she didn’t say that the first time. She should have told us that when we first checked in so we are not starting off good. As we wait we get a drink at the bar and my mom didn’t like her drink so she asked the bartender to make her a different drink and he had an attitude about changing the drink. He proceeded to make everyone else drink and then came back to us asking did we still want the drink. I don’t get why he just didn’t remake it why go make other drinks and then ask us do we still want a drink that is very unprofessional and I honestly didn’t even want to stay after that. We got our table the food was good but then when it came time to sing happy birthday the guy light the candle and walked away nobody came to sing at our table. The people next to us was nice enough to sing to my mom. This messed up my mom’s birthday and gave us both a bad experience.

   Everything was outstanding! The only small criticism I could give is they kept asking if we wanted more water instead of just filling our glass. A little disruptive to table conversation. But otherwise, thoroughly enjoyed the innovative cocktails, delicious food, elegant ambiance, and attentive wait staff. We’ll be back.

   We started with some appetizers. The bone marrow and the tataki were each delicious! I love that we could do a "surf and turf" before we even got to the main. All our drinks were done perfectly and the wagyu is all delicious. Surprisingly, it was unanimous that we all prefered the less expensive Japanese A5 as our favorite!

   My seabass was a bit undercooked. 6oz fillet for 55.00 doesn’t seem worth it. However I did enjoy the meal and had an overall great experience with my guest.

   The music in the bar and from of the restaurant was a little loud. But it was too cold in the back area. But it was still an enjoyable dinner! Love the staff there!

   The atmosphere was great. Low lighting, comfortable booths and cozy heaters! We had an appetizer and a drink while we waited for our table. It was a seamless transition. Steaks, mashed potatoes and mushrooms were awesome. Can’t wait to go again!

    Disappointing experience for an upscale brand name. The location is entirely too small, not ideal for a table for 2. The tables are so close along the rear, the servers cannot fit between to properly plate the tables without their back sides in your face. Disgusting!! Food subpar, $20 drink was a joke, service needs improvement for a fine dining establishment. This was a waste of time and money.
