We came hungry but were a little disappointed that there weren't more menu choices, and they were quite a bit more expensive than expected. The things we tried tho, were excellent. The Seafood salad had a light dressing that made the sashimi like cuts of fish erase any Japanese-food comparison. The crab was extremely luscious. We hesitated to order the mushroom pasta with pork katsu, worrying that it would be heavy on pasta. It was very light on pasta and used thick high quality slices of lightly breaded pork. Loved it. Had a couple nice Merlots and a Pinot Noir, but unfortunately for us most of the wines were way over our budget. Throw a couple budget wines on the list for those like me. Our total bill was far more than I expected, and I left a little hungry. But only my wallet hurt, everything else was very satisfied. Unfortunately, I have a hunch we won't be back soon.

The liquor and wine selection is impressive- lots of different bottles I've never seen before. Our server said the food is really good, so I'll have to try that next time. Would be a nice place to go after work and decompress with your friends. They have karaoke starting at 10pm but I def won't stay for that! Def one of the most unique places I've been.
