| - Most of the reviews I've read for Sens are spot on! I have dined here twice now and felt obligated to create a Yelp account to share my sentiments on such a fantastic eatery. With that being said...
Sens is definitely a hip little joint that has everything going for it. I feel it could work for any situation but works wonderfully well as a date spot. The decor is absolutely brilliant and parallels the unique cuisine. Along with the music being played -- by a live DJ -- on the weekend nights, these attributes all work together to create a vibrant and tasteful (ha!) atmosphere. To top it all off, the waitstaff is attentive and fun.
While the menu certainly isn't extensive, it has a variety of creative offerings that will provide an ample range of flavors. I've yet to explore the numerous sake options as I've just gone with the familiar Junmai Ginjo. My food recommendations would be the Sugar Cane, Red Curry Tofu, and Lemongrass Soy. The dish Sugar Cane, pork marinated with a pineapple-ginger sauce, are relatively small cuts of pork that have a crispy exterior but melt in your mouth the moment you take a bite. They're so delicious I'm ordering it twice next time....I seriously can't stop thinking about 'em!
I'd also like to mention that, as a DJ myself, it's rare that I actually approve of this sort of setup for a restaurant....but it works, and the selector they have is spot on with his beats. I've heard everything from downtempo to jazz to glitch hop being played and he actually mixes (YES!!) his tunes, albeit, at times, a bit loudly.
I have no complaints for Sens -- 5 stars it is! Cheers!
