If you blink, you may pass this luscious restaurant up!! It is a complete vibe inside and out! Rooftop dining was closed when we went, but we look forward to coming back and sitting up there. Servers are all friendly and knowledgeable on the menu. The menu has plenty of options and choices. We tried a lot of rolls. Our favorite was the fresh yellowtail. Mouthwatering!!! Eel roll was amazing. Snow crab, blue crab, even tried the short rib! Small dishes to share and make your mouth go boom!! The presentation is top notch! The drinks we tried were different and all went down smoothly.
