"Interesting and tasty menu items, good service. The ceviche was excellent (we got the three item sampler) as was the tuna tartar. Only negatives were that I was a little disappointed in the Paella Clasica and (we thought) the Kobe beef sliders were a little over-cooked and not distinctly flavorful. Overall, good food but perhaps not quite worth the price."

very chic atmosphere, maybe good for drinks, but no place for dinner. The restaurant is very dark, so you literally need a flashlight to see your menu. The food was quite tasteless and very expensive for what you would get.

Food was ok, not incredibly special but not poor either. Price was high but not ludicrous. Ambiance was very good, service was very good. Overall, happy that I came with my partner to try it, but unlikely we'll return again. Location of restaurant and ambiance were driving factors to come visit.

The service was terrible. I oredered a desert and waited 30 plus minutes and nothing arrived. When I raised the matter with our waiter, he barely acknowledged the issue, showed no remorse on the fact that I had waited all this time, and just checked the bill to remove the line item. He showed zero customer service !! He had a total attitude about him.

"We wanted a hole in a wall place to have lunch while in this area. We looked up this place ahead of time and headed over here after our morning activity. Has their own lot and two men and women restroom located outside in their parking lot. Indoor and outdoor seating. We opted for indoor and the man who checked us in got us a high chair for our little one. Lamented menus and the decor is very outdated and homey. Service is a minimal which we are perfectly fine with. The food took a while to come out even though we arrived shortly after they opened at 11am and it wasn't overly busy. Yaki Onigiri $6.95 (2 pieces. Grilled rice balls, soy sauce butter flavored, no filling Well done. All three of us were able to enjoy this. Came out pippin' hot! Dohatsuten Ramen $16.25 (Spicy garlic minced pork, shredded chili, chashu pork, stewed taro pork, cabbage, carrots, green onions, chives, bean sprouts, nori seaweed, half egg My husband's. He enjoyed it. Taro Pork Ramen $15.95 (simmered tender pork belly, green onions, bean sprouts, spicy bamboo shoots, nori seaweed, half egg* extra noodles. We both got ours with Tonkastu broth. Unfortunately, I felt like the broth was spicy. I don't like spicy and we came with our toddler in which I was sharing my noodles with. I can eat spicy but it doesn't make my dining experience enjoyable. My pork belly was soft and delicious. We won't be coming back unfortunately as I don't want to be surprised by a spicy broth. Price point is good."
