The charred broccolini is not to be missed. You will double think it because what’s so special about a vegetable at a sushi restaurant right? Wrong. Definitely get the broccolini.

Amazing experience. Food and service were on another level. After each delicate course, I was left wanting more which is ingenious because now I have to come back again. Darn. Thank you SHIA.
