    Sushi was amazing. My husband really enjoyed the poached shrimp dish. Cocktails were good but not very big. Service was good. We were fairly close to the door and every time people came a left we felt the cold air so glad I brought a sweater. Dessert was very good too. Definitely had a cool, chic vibe.
