I had the pleasure of being served by Marcus, who was absolutely exceptional. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and his drinks were outstanding. The host Kenji he was just as amazing--welcoming, kind, and brought such a genuine, comforting sense of humor that truly lifted the moment. During a difficult day, both of them provided not just great service, but real care and hospitality. Because of them, I will definitely be returning in the future. Thank you for such a memorable experience.

The menu is creative and the presentation looks great, but some dishes felt a bit hit-or-miss in terms of flavor compared to the price!!! Service was friendly and professional, although the timing between courses could have been smoother during a busy evening. Drinks were well made and probably the highlight of the visit. Overall, it's a decent spot with a great vibe and potential, but a little more consistency with the food would make the experience feel more balanced!!!!!

Tried the Lemon Ricota Donuts--they were just okay, a bit too doughy for my preference.

The walls were an homage of old photos with an eclectic and whimsical feel. Service was excellent. A variety of staff kept checking to see if everything was satisfactory. It was. Our salad was the tomato panzenella special. The ingredients were fresh and the vinaigrette was just right. A complimentary bread basket with olive oil and balsamic vinegar options was available. The glass oil dispenser was coated in oil making it messy to grasp. The bread was not fresh and not exciting. I had the eggplant rollatini. It had a generous flavorful red sauce and the herb ricotta filling added a nice contrast. My only complaint would be how thin the eggplant slices were. More eggplant please. My wife loved her linguini and clams. I couldn't taste it because I have a clam allergy, but she loved it. Someone also got rigatoni and enjoyed it. The generous portions left us too full for dessert. This solid Italian restaurant has good food at a good price and needs to be on your list next time you feel like Italian.

Overall, this is decent sushi made much more appealing by its extensive happy hour…read more We visited during happy hour, which featured a strong selection of seafood, cocktails, sake, and wine. The discounts were quite noticeable. The seared salmon normally costs $10 but drops to $4 during happy hour. Service was not the fastest but our server was very kind and accommodating. *Lychee Cosmo: sweet and fragrant. Although it was advertised as lychee forward, it leaned more toward a cherry blossom or floral profile and tasted somewhat artificial. *Kusshi Margarita: refreshing with a solid pour. *Seared Fatty Salmon: a nicely thick cut of salmon that was evenly seared. I did wish the mayo topping had more flavor as it felt more textural than impactful in taste. *Nigiri and Sashimi Combo: came with three pieces each of sashimi and nigiri, featuring tuna, salmon, or yellowtail. I was impressed by the thickness of the cuts. The tuna was tender and clean, the yellowtail was rich and fatty, and while the salmon was leaner, it was still fresh and not fishy. *Toro Crispy Rice: the tuna was very rich and fatty. The rice was well prepared and not overly oily, but the dish could have used something acidic or herbal, like shiso or pickled radish, to balance the richness. *Salmon Avocado Roll: the avocado complemented the lean salmon well. The roll was generously filled and the rice did not overpower the ingredients. *Spicy Tuna Roll: the tuna was quite mild, so the roll lacked strong flavor, though the fish itself was tender. Structurally, the roll was well made and evenly filled. *Salmon Sushi Bowl: came with six slices of salmon over plain rice and pickled vegetables. I wish the rice had been seasoned with vinegar. The pickles added a nice crunch and contrast. *Scallop Nigiri: not part of the happy hour menu. The scallop itself was large and soft, with more natural saltiness than sweetness. It would have benefited from a more acidic rice base to balance it out. The sushi itself is not particularly memorable, but it is solid across the board. I would not pay full price, as there is room for improvement in flavor, but the happy hour value brings this closer to a four star experience rather than a three and a half.

You dip them in this fiery hot sauce, and let them take you places. So great burger but too big for one, and the drumsticks had a great spice going as well. Our happy hour drinks were passionate caipirinha that was a lovely blend, not too sweet, but like so many drinks, it comes with too much ice so it's a lot less drink than it looks. Still, good eating, good price, good service, just order less, cause yiu can always order more later.

I got the chicken salad (it was a hot day!) and he got a beef one, the flavors were both strong and refreshing.

The chicken was juicy and delicious in the velvety smooth creamy curry. I also loved the zesty salad and the luxuriously creamy and flavorful daal. My husband had the Yellow Crab Curry ($22.99). It contained a very generous portion of lumped crab and the curry was smooth and creamy as well. The curry came with rice and we had the option of ordering additional naan, if needed. The restaurant was very quiet for lunch and service was very attentive by the waiter and the Maître d' The restaurant itself is beautiful and has a nice amount of seating, especially for large events. The waiter advised me the restaurant served about 300 people for their Mother's Day brunch! I thought that was amazing. I also thought I couldn't imagine how difficult it would have been to go to the bathroom during such an event. The women's room had two stalls (and the accessible stall had a diaper changing table), but only one sink! Luckily that was not a concern during our lunch visit. Heads up, the wait staff will ask if you'd like a paper bag to carry out any leftovers, and they are $0.10/bag due to the bag tax.

I don't see crab on alot of Indian restaurant menus. It was blue crab, albeit from Louisiana. Tasted fine though. Our other dishes were butter chicken, and chicken tikka marsala.

The menu had mostly bar items with a few twists involved. The service was okay. We were there for multiple hours but had to flag down the staff a lot as we kept wanting to order. We ordered many items and my thoughts on each are below. Cauliflower Wings - We opted for the bee sting and Thai chili flavors. The Thai chili was okay, but the fried aspect was unreal. It was perfectly crisp and filled with the right amount of sauce. The bee sting was essentially a honey Buffalo, and it was tremendous. I could not believe how much I enjoyed these. It was a perfect complement of honey and Buffalo. Signature Sweet Bay Fries - These were crinkle-cut fries with a sweet bay seasoning and cheese sauce. Again, these were perfectly fried and had a ton of seasoning. The cheese sauce was a nice compliment but was not really needed. Spicy Tuna Bites - This came with crispy rice, sesame oil, and sriracha. This was not ideal. It appeared to be canned tuna, which was disappointing. It just felt fake to me. Crispy Cheese Curds - This came with a spicy soy ranch. Some of the cheese curds were inconsistent as they had no cheese, but the ones that did were solid. The soy ranch was definitely one of the more unique sauces I have seen, and it worked well with fried cheese. Loaded Nachos - This came with a cheese blend, Pico de Gallo, fresh jalapenos, sour cream, guacamole, and tortilla chips. It was nice to see the nachos on a flat board, so it was an even distribution of all the toppings. There was a great balance of all the toppings, and the chips stayed crisp throughout. Cheese flatbread with Hot Honey - This was not the best. Immediately biting into this, it tasted like canned tomato sauce. There was not enough hot honey present either. The crust was thin, but okay. Will I go back? Possibly.
