    My wife and I love this place. Food is amazing and very well presented. The service is top notch always ready to answer your questions and recommendations based on your interest. Always ask for a spa view. Angry chicken is the best. Some of the best fresh sushi ever.

    Review for Restaurant Kato I had the pleasure of dining at Restaurant Kato on Christmas night, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience overall. First and foremost, I’m incredibly grateful that they were open during the holiday season, providing an opportunity for a festive and memorable evening. The food was exquisite, with each dish showcasing authentic Japanese flavors and meticulous presentation. The freshness of the sushi and the delicate balance of textures and flavors truly stood out. The ambience was equally impressive—elegant, warm, and inviting, with subtle decor that added to the overall experience. The service was impeccable, with staff members who were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. That said, there were a couple of minor issues that I feel are worth mentioning. The tamari sauce, unfortunately, tasted diluted, which detracted slightly from the otherwise perfect flavors of the dishes. For such a high-caliber restaurant, I believe this is a significant oversight. Additionally, the wasabi could have had a bit more punch to elevate the sushi experience further. Despite these small concerns, my evening at Restaurant Kato was delightful, and I wouldn’t hesitate to return. Thank you for making Christmas night so special!

    Nous avons attendu 20 minutes avant d’être servis, malgré le fait que la serveuse n’avait que deux tables. Elle nous a regardés mais n’a même pas dit bonjour jusqu’à ce que je demande à un commis de lui signaler que nous attendions. J’étais avec ma fille et j’ai essayé de garder mon calme pour passer un bon moment. Nous avons commandé trois plats, mais la serveuse nous a demandé au moins trois fois ce que nous avions commandé parce qu’elle ne prenait pas de notes. Au final, nous n’avons reçu que deux des trois plats que nous avions commandés à partager. La nourriture était médiocre. J’y suis déjà allé, mais après cette expérience, je n’y retournerai jamais. Elle a proposé de s’occuper du plat qui n’était pas arrivé à la table et de l’emballer pour ma fille, car c’était celui qu’elle attendait. Cependant, j’ai tout de même laissé un pourboire de 25 % pour un "service" que je n’avais ni demandé ni voulu.
