    The food, service and ambiance was great. The noise level was a little high, but did not impact table conversation. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. It is one of the few that has maintained its level of experience over the many years it has been in business

    It’s always good, that’s why we eat here. There WAS an issue with my wife’s meal (an Asian dish that tasted like it was overcooked) but it was remedied right away by our favorite server, thanks Judy!

    Service was top notch. I am happy we got seating down below as seating up top looked more like cafeteria seating. Down below felt more quaint and upscale. Food was absolutely fantastic. Seafood pillows were delicious, artichoke crab dip served with fry bread. Then had miso cod which I was a little worried about about the wasabi sauce, but it was not bad at all. I don’t care for wasabi. Also had the lamb, a variety of sushi and the Hamachi collar all at the table. Everything was fantastic. Service was impeccable, but did take a while to get the bill.

    Great interior feel, well decorated, and an excellent spot for a date. Music was upbeat, staff attentive and friendly. Menu was robust, great price ranges for food and wine both. The “owners wine flight” was fantastic, highly recommend.

    If you are looking for a cozy atmosphere, great food and excellent service, then look no further. We have been coming to OTMC for a decade and have never been disappointed. I am usually a steak guy, but tried the scallop/risotto dinner and it was fantastic. Looking forward to our next visit.
