| - Service and atmosphere was great! Our server (forgot her name, but she has blonde hair and she has a dog named Luna) was very sweet, knowledgable, helpful with our questions and was perfectly attentive (not too little, not too much). I love the bonsai trees, the wall art, and the lighting was also very beautiful. I didn't order a cocktail, but I do like their iced tea a lot! You could tell they get quality tea and brew it themselves, no Lipton garbage. For food, we ordered spicy tuna sliders, crab Rangoon roll, and tsunami roll, and octopus sashimi. Wait for food was reasonable, as they were slightly busy for a Wednesday, it wasn't too long. The food was flavorful, beautifully presented, and fresh. I even enjoyed the salad garnish, and I normally do not like seaweed salad, but this was done right! I wish I could come back more often, and would give this 5 full stars, if it weren't for the super high price point! I thought Shinto in Strongsville was expensive! $10+ for a cocktail, $17 for a fancy roll, $8 for three paper-thin pieces of octopus (might have came out as 1/2 oz portion) is just too damn much for me to spend on a meal that my boyfriend and I were still kind of hungry after. I know you get what you pay for, but this is Lakewood, not L.A. Maybe talk about your sourcing, what sets you apart from the other places, why am I paying so much? If I knew more about it, it may be easier to part with my hard-earned money. Otherwise, this is a place I enjoyed, but definitely can't visit very often..
