    I’ve had better fried calamari in a sports bar late at night. Small portion for the money they charge and very greasy would never order again and not recommend it. The sushi was excellent as usual.

    For the type of restaurant and the price of food, the food should been better The temperature of my filet mignon was incorrect, and it was salty as well. The meat quality was not the best. The server was very nice and professional, but the table ran dry, constantly asking for water and drinks. They the were able to accommodate a table for 12 with short notice which was nice if them. The restaurant is beautiful and the view to Biscayne Bay are amazing overlooking the skyline of downtown Miami.
