    Best dinner we have ever had. The food was unreal. My only complaint is that if you are hungry this food won’t fill you up as it is just tasting.

    The 7 course tasting menu was excellent. Since it was a Monday night I got to sit at one of six seats overlooking the line. The chef plated, presented and described each course. It was a true delight.

    This is probably the best sushi Nashville has to offer. Better than Virago and for a much better price. The restaurant was super cute and service was great. This is the place for fish in a land locked state.

    We dined on an evening where there was a wedding rehearsal so obviously the staff and kitchen were behind. The restaurant is beautiful and everyone was very pleasant. It took about 20 minutes to get two glasses of wine from the bar. The food was good, steak was medium well after being ordered medium. Mushroom fettuccine was good. I would probably eat here again. For the price I think they could take quality up a notch.
