    10/10 from the moment we walked in the door! 10/10 -Service was impeccable! Our server was attentive, polite and efficient. She provided recommendations and made sure to touch our table after each course was delivered to ensure we were satisfied and didn't need anything else. Kudos to the manager for accompanying the waitress when our entrees were dropped off to provide his pairing recommendations to enhance the flavor of our dishes ( lemon squeeze on the Bok Choy- PERFECTION!) 10/10- FOOD! We started with the Tuna Crispy Rice. I'm not a fan of Tuna however my partner loves it and we both thoroughly enjoyed this dish. The rice was nice, crispy and hot and presentation was great. The Beef Short Rib was absolutely the highlight of our mains. So juicy, perfectly seasoned and tender- just wow! This dish came with side pairings of 3 sauces, pickled onions, salt, pepper, lettuce and cilantro so that you could experiment and taste to your liking. You can't leave here without trying this. This is also a great entree to share as it is a considerable amount of meat. The Japanese sweet potato was a pleasant surprise. My partner wasn't sure of it when we first ordered but his thoughts changed immediately after the first bite. This was damn GOOD. The Bok Choy was fresh and very tasty and the Korean Fried Chicken had my partner in a chokehold. 7/10- DRINKS were good but a little weak. I had the Future of Ronin which was tasty and my partner had the Wynwood Mule. Very tasty but could've used an extra shot. 10/10-DESSERT WAS BOMB! We had the cinnamon roll and if I don't do anything else, I will be back for this! Don't skip out on dessert here like ever! Overall our experience was top tier here and is HIGHLY recommended! We will def be back!

    What a special experience! Food and drinks were great! Everything on the menu was available except for one cocktail (there are many). We were warm and comfy. The person grilling and serving was so wonderful - loved hearing his experiences and his recommendations were spot on. We had fish cakes, noodle soup with mackerel, and pork belly. All were superb!

    The food and service were both excellent, exceeding our already high expectations. One of our party has celiac disease: the server carefully walked us through the menu items that he could choose to eat. The pace of the arrival of the dishes -from snacking items, small plates, and entrees - worked well, and our table was never empty or overcrowded. Three hours passed quickly; we all enjoyed the meal immensely.
