    Disappointed they were not currently serving alcohol but I understand something’s being out of their control. Though a heads up when booking would have been nice as I and pretty much everyone else arrived to find out with a note on the door. Food was great the staff was accommodating to byob and my Eagles one so overall still a great dining experience.

    If you are debating on where to eat tonight, don’t think twice just book the reservation. My husband and I have been to the top Omakasa restaurants in NYC and this place tops them all. The food is incredible, the atmosphere is calming, and the service is top notch. I swear that you will be talking about your dinner for weeks to come. You won’t regret it.
