3-4/5 for food, but 5/5 for drinks and service!…read more
We noticed this place always had a long line coming out the door, and finally getting the chance to go up the elevator to see the city from above, it's no wonder! Gorgeous views, energetic vibes, clean and modern interior. We went to the izakaya side to get a late night snack and drinks, and I am still dreaming about the drink that I got! It was that delicious.
For drinks I got the melon & vodka (I asked the server which he recommended between that and the mango & amaretto and he instantly said the melon & vodka!) and it did not disappoint! So so good! I've been wanting to figure out how to make it at home. It was sweet, had a delicious honeydew flavor, and tasted nothing like alcohol -- just my type of drink. My bf got the passionfruit & bourbon and thought it was yummy, had great balance, and the spice was a nice touch.
While our drinks were 10/10, our food was just okay. We got the Wagyu nigiri (good meat but not necessarily anything to write home about), agedashi aubergine (pass, tasted weirdly like whiskey), tuna sashimi (my favorite of the four; I enjoyed the added crisp from the topping), and miso chicken thigh (not bad but pretty salty).
Great vibes, fun location, fantastic attentive service, top notch drinks, but passable food. I kept wanting to go back just to get that melon & vodka!
