    Lovely relaxed interior - great menu with good selection of sushi - from carpaccios style to more traditional maki & nigiri - good selection of main dishes of meats & fish. We loved all their soft shell crab rolls & unagi. A place for sharing & enjoying your meal with loved ones. We enjoyed it very much ! Would return again anytime !

    Can’t rate the food, as we left before ordering food. The waitress couldn’t get the drinks order right(sparkling water with some lemon slices). After about the third attempt, we asked for the bill and went elsewhere because we couldn’t imagine the right food arriving! She tried charging us for the still water that she’d given us.
