“ 2nd time in, had blackened ahi both times. So good. Little spicy, ask them to hold the wasabi mayo and chili sauce if you’re like me and don’t dig hot stuff. Carrot cake for dessert- beware the mini cakes will feed 2 people just fine. Holy smokes they pack a punch. Good stuff all in all, will be back. ”
“ My husband and I came here for a date night and had a wonderful time! The food was delicious and the service was very attentive. We are usually a bit quieter when we dine and it felt like our server really catered to our needs! My drink was so good that I was so tempted to get another one! It's a bit on the spendier side for us but it was definitely worth it for the quality of the food. Perfect when you want a bit of a nicer meal! ”
“ I had a couple drinks and was happy with the service and atmosphere. Overall for a new facility, a lot of times the first 6 months will often have kinks. This place has their stuff together and their brand. Friendly staff. ”

“ This place was UNBELIEVABLE. The food was INCREDIBLE. Being from California and going to Vegas often has given me some amazing food options and cuisines. This can keep up with the best of them. Definitely worth a try. Every single thing me and my date ate delicious and melt in your mouth cooked perfect. Definitely go for the steak and pork belly skewers. You will NOT be disappointed. 10/10. ”
“ Great food and service. Our party of 3 all had the seared Ahi tuna and loved it. The Wasabi sauce was just right, not too hot but enough bite. As a diabetic option they substituted vegetables instead of noodles for me, my work associates had noodles and enjoyed it. ”
