Nice food and well-priced. The robot waiter is not the ideal way to receive one's meal.

Restaurant gave us warm welcome. We were able to confirm we were on Fork's 50% off offer and they were aware and explanation matched our expectations. We over ordered as had great selections. House Special at $65 great value anytime but we only paid half which was extraordinary. Wine extremely well priced as well as selection of Sake. Attentive staff and we'll definitely be back - discounts or not!

Nice small restaurant with very good service. We also liked the food. The only negative is that when we asked for the bill they didn’t gave us the Fork discount. We had to remind them that we booked via Fork and they they took the discount off the initial bill.

The sushi boat was beautiful but the portions is really small. The also have a 10% surcharge for weekends which was not mentioned at the time of booking. The restaurant was also a bit outdated and too crowded for accomodating so much people.

I remember the food being a lot better, tempura was more hard than crunchy, sukiyaki has regular mushrooms instead of shiitake mushrooms. Felt like eating at a food court restaurant.
