After managing in sushi bars for over 6 years I've become somewhat of a sushi snob. It's very hard for us to find sushi we enjoy and keep returning for. I have to admit I was definitely impressed. The food was amazing! Everything was very fresh and outstanding presentation. Being that it was a full house on a Friday night everything came out quickly. We especially liked the tuna tacos (ahi poke) and the sunrise roll.
My husband and I have both been in the restaurant industry for a very long time and although we are understanding when it comes to service levels, we also expect minimum basics. Service started out rocky - we wondered whether or server had any experience before. We asked for recommendations and he had none and admitted he hasn't tried any of the food - not something we line to hear from an employee of the joint. Slowly it became a team effort by the staff and other severs were better and actually knew the menu. The owner Jen was very friendly and welcoming. We didn't receive terrible service - but hoping it will get better as they iron out the wrinkles.
We'll be back soon and hope that the food quality stays the same and service improves.
