Keith was the best waiter! Great food, must try the goat cheese skillet. Focaccia was the best bread I’ve ever had, with the rosemary and sea salt on top. Great ambiance. Restaurant is very sleek and clean. Nora was a great serving assistant. Plates were brought out in a timely manner and cleaned up promptly.

The Hibachi grill experience for larger groups was so much fun! Really appreciate the chef’s and server’s attentiveness and style (I really liked the red squeeze bottle shots!). This made our experience catching up with friends before our wedding so enjoyable! Oh and the scallops and sushi were fantastic!!
