    Great food, excellent drinks. The evening’s special appetizer was sushi. Some of the best I’ve ever tasted. I could have enjoyed a second serving as my entree. Had the fresh wahoo served over a pesto orzo that was delicious. The location is a little hard to find but certainly worth the effort.

    The waiter from Salt Lake City was impeccable. The food was great. Wahu and risotto cooked to perfection. The brushetta wonderful. My husband loved the curry dish. On another note: the restroom was not desirable, clean and does not reflect the ambiance of the restaurant. Small improvement would improve the total experience.

    We had a nice date night for our first night in STX. The sushi was fresh and delicious, we decided to sample all the options and were not disappointed. Definitely would recommend. Oh, and don’t miss out on their cocktails. The Nespresso Martini was a hit!
