    My wife and I went here for our anniversary and they really made our anniversary special! Our waiter Johnathon was very knowledgeable and his recommendations were spot on. For an appetizer we got the Ruby Roll which was amazing. My wife doesn’t like sushi and thought it was really good. I got the Sea Bass burrow style and my wife got the pork chop which were both fantastic. For dessert we split the Butter Pie which was really good. Definitely a 10/10 experience and we’ll definitely be back.
