    Great new restaurant! Service was courteous and quick. They have an ube espresso martini that is unique and delicious! The shrimp toast, Kung pao bao buns, cacio e pepe miso, Duck Meatballs over upon noodles, Orange chicken parm and Adobo Stinco are all must orders. The flavors go together so well, what a great concept! I can't wait to go back!

    Never been more excited to try and restaurant after seeing it on social media, so I had kinda high expectations and DiVinci & Yu met every single one of those! Everything was incredible, the waitstaff were kind and knowledgeable, and the food was incredible. I can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu. Cannot recommend enough!!!!

    It was difficult to decide what to order! The food was all very creative and I’d say the Japanese influence was muted in some dishes (would be okay to be bolder!). Service felt rushed but otherwise a great dinner, would definitely return to try more.

    Great concept but not very well executed. Was so excited for the miso cacio Pepe but couldn’t taste the miso at all. Burrata sushi was very small. Food was fine, but too pricey for the quality.

    The Italian Asian fusion thing blows my mind. It seems somewhat confusing in theory, but delectable to the pallet. Owners couldn’t have been nicer. Staff couldn’t have been more attentive. Innovative.

    The staff, gen mgr Cheryl and our waiter went out of their way to make us comfortable and happy. The food was very good, especially the flat breads and the black cod dumplings.

    Very interesting menu, and some things were excellent. The octopus and chicken bao buns, shrimp toast, aroncini, and pizza were very good. The large plate highlights were the wedding Ramen and pork Stinco. Also enjoyed the chicken parm. It was loud, but still a very enjoyable dinner. Service was also as attentive as is to be expected on a Saturday night, but staff was really friendly.
