All the staff members we spoke to were very kind and helpful in explaining how to order. I really appreciate that they took the time to check in with us throughout the meal, and they made great drink recommendations! The sushi was okay, but I was expecting more for the price, and the presentation was not great. The best item we got was by far the Shiso Tuna. The EDM music playing constantly was also very loud and borderline abnoxious. We noticed a young family next to us who had the same complaint. Definitely more suitable for young adults looking for sushi + drinks. Next time we visit, we'll probably make an effort to get a reservation somewhere else but will miss the incredible service we received! - a

I ordered the lamp chops, which were presented beautifully. I requested medium-rare, but when I cut into the first piece, it was well done, and the second was the same. The third piece was slightly better, but I called the manager to complain. He assured me that they would replace it and make it perfect. By the time my new meal arrived, my friends had already finished theirs. I cut into the first piece, and it was again well done. The next two pieces were just okay, but I decided to eat them. They promised to replace the well-done piece, but when I tried the lamb, it was not even that great. It had an unusual texture and tasted terrible. I've had a lot of lamb in my life, and this was by far one of the worst I've ever had. To make amends, they gave us three small pieces of Mochi cut in half. Makoto, please do better.

If you want authentic Szechuan this is the place! What we got: - Wonton soup - homemade dumplings had a good ginger and garlic flavor. Big enough for two as an app. - Double cooked pork - absolutely outstanding. Big portion with vegetables, fermented black beans, so good! - Spicy crispy fish - highly recommend this if you like spicy food. I love this dish whether the chicken or fish variations and this might have been the best I've had! I can't say enough about the Chinese food. We were blown away with how good they were. Our server Patrick was incredible. He was so friendly and welcoming. He's a serious skier and you can often find him backpacking 30+ pounds of cooking gear to make fresh food slope side! We have tried many places in Vail and I highly, highly, highly recommend this place. The interior is small so I recommend making a reservation. Pro tip: it's BYOB so bring a bottle of wine or a few beers!

It's easy to get to by bus or if you are driving, it is right outside the Vail Village parking garage. The service was excellent and they were especially accommodating for finding a comfortable table we could sit at considering my husband was on crutches. The restaurant itself was really beautiful, every time I looked around I felt like I saw a new detail that I missed. Food wise - the Pan Roasted Jidori Chicken was knock-your-socks-off good. I normally don't order this kind of chicken dish because usually its a glorified rotisserie chicken but this was not like that AT ALL. The chicken was both crispy on the outside while being juicy on the inside and was paired with the most amazing sauce. I would order this again and again. The other two must-order dishes were the brussel sprouts and the cornbread. Chef's kiss - so so so good. We also tried the short rib - which was great, and the lamb ragu - which I liked (but not as much as the chicken).

The original table they had for us wasn't great and they were more than happy for us to move. Now the bad part.. I think by moving tables we got a waiter that was too busy to attend to us. Now this is a fancy restaurant so we expect perfect service. It was fine but slow in my opinion. Now for the food, it was pretty tasty as usual. I had a delicious light salad and then had their signature salmon dish. Portion size was as perfect for both items! Others at the table were not as satisfied. The scallops were delicious but there were only three served, for how expensive this place was, they should have given a few more. The rice was not great. As for the other diners in my party, they were happy with their meals.
