| - We finally ate here. We had a reservation and it was a beautiful night, so walking in as I realized they have a patio, I hoped to sit there. We were told there was a wait and my husband was hungry so we got seated inside immediately.
I was told wine pours were small, so we both opted for a cocktail. My husband got a gin & cucumber concoction which he thought was kind of like lemonade. I got a wild tea vodka & cucumber drink. It was a little sweeter than I prefer but glad I tried it!
Now to the menu . . . our waitress, Morgan, was very thorough in explaining the style of the restaurant. She suggested an item from each page, but that seemed like a lot. But I guess in the end we probably ordered that much!
We started with the calamari which was delicious! Lightly crispy and delicate! We decided on two sushi rolls. Spicy tuna - yum! - and Forbidden Rice roll which had white asparagus. It was unique and tasty! For our next round, I asked about the baby artichoke skewers which Morgan highly recommended, as well as the rice bowls. My husband wasn't up for either, so we focused on entrees. We ordered Grilled Branzini b/c we'd never had it. It was 2 small slices of grilled fish (not much flavor!!) and a tomato salad. Very small portion and disappointing flavor for $24!! Since our waitress asked about it, my husband told her it was just ok and didn't have a lot of flavor. When she brought the bill, she informed us she took the Branzini off the tab! We greatly appreciated that!
All in all, it was good but not a great experience and not worth the $65 (total without the entree). I'd go back but not anytime soon.
