A+!! Our experience was wonderful! I set up this surprise for my husband’s birthday. We arrived after dark so the restaurant didn’t even look open, which I actually liked! The set up of the restaurant was intimate, cozy and elevated. We arrived early and were able to have a seat in the little waiting area (two chairs and a small couch). We were greeted by Jeff who was able to set us up with drinks while we waited. We opted to do the Omakase experience under the bar seating with Head Chef Yudi and his team. There are only six seats at the bar, so make sure to make a reservation if you’d like the omakase experience (interact with chef + watch him prepare the meals + learn more about the food on an item by item basis). Highly recommend.
My husband did a sake pairing for each “tour”. They call each course a tour! My husband is not a sake fan but he really enjoyed their selections. The food was incredible! There wasn’t one thing we didn’t love! The first tour of ceviche style salad and the matcha crème brûlée were my favorites! So many of the sushi selections were melt in your mouth, buttery soft!
We highly recommend this experience, but just note, I’d say it is for more experienced diners (but don’t let that scare you away!) and expect to pay a decent amount and tip appropriately since they are all hands on deck to take care of you. The price was worth the experience for us! So happy we have a concept like this here.
