This was one of the pricier meals I've ever had but it was worth it just this once for the experience. It's a reservation-only place & they start preparing your feed in advance right in front of you. Seating is limited and everyone sits around the bar while the chef cooks so it's a very cozy experience. The food was delicious and the seafood very fresh. I was so full. I both wanted the meal to end (b/c of fullness) and continue (b/c of the yumminess!). I definitely want to go here again. I think I will give the $60 omakase a try -- I don't think I can afford $100 each time!
Parking here can be a nightmare but if you are eating upstairs, you get the special privilege of parking in the private garage.

The food here was awesome. I had the 3-course meal ($32). I started off with a cream of artichoke soup. Didn't love that too much (but it was well-made, I just didn't like the flavor). My entree was the brick-cooked chicken and that was some of the best chicken I've had in a LONG time. For dessert I had the chocolate mousse. It was very rich, dark chocolate. I prefer something creamier.
Now the service: this place is new so they are still working out the rough edges. The food took forever (almost 1 hour before we got our entrees) and they did not have enough chicken to cover our orders. They did offer us a free entree and dessert to make up for it though and they were very apologetic. The staff was very nice throughout it all and they even gave us 20% off our total bill. Once they figure out all the kinks, I think they will do a much better job.
The one thing I found strange and slightly annoying was their need to clear all the silverware & plates between courses. Seemed wasteful since I didn't use my knife and fork!

Went here w/ some friends expecting some good Peking duck. I'm not sure if we ordered wrong but our duck seemed more like a regular roast duck to me. I am willing to try it again though b/c we had the set dinner & maybe the set dinner is different? We didn't get the 2-course duck. In general, pretty decent Chinese food an the staff was pretty friendly. Prices are pretty good too. Meal for 11 of us only cost us $16 each.

This is a quiet like placed tucked between two Korean places. The rolls are currently 40% off, which doesn't make it too expensive and taste fairly good as well. I would recommend it if you were looking for a quick & simple Japanese dinner. I've only tried their rolls and have yet to venture to their other entrees.

Went here for happy hour one night. Pretty good sushi - I like the non-standard rolls. It's worth going for happy hour (1/2 price on the rolls) but a tad on the pricey side otherwise!

I ordered the pork buns and an onion pancake. Both were very yummy. The pork buns had so much soup in them!
