A very beautiful restaurant with lots of nice little touches. I especially liked the wallpaper in the washroom. The sushi was very fresh but the rice was under seasoned and a bit undercooked. We were a bit disappointed by the quality of the chopsticks we received. The steak tataki was very good but arrived cold, instead of room temperature.

Our server was excellent and very hospitable and knowledgeable about their sake and sashimi. The ambiance was nothing like we expected. The beef tataki was pre plated from the fridge and almost glued to the plate.
