This was a disappointing experience. Our server did not seem to like his job and was barely available to us. I had the Halibut and it was cooked way too much, dry and chewy. Would have returned but waiter was absent most of the time. Oysters at $4.50 each, come on.

Sockeye salmon undercooked. Spinach too cooked for my taste. Rolls were good. Manager was nice and offered dessert, which we don’t eat. He managed to get me fresh fruit at my request. Servers were very nice.
