Wonderful new handroll restaurant tucked away behind Ward Theaters. But they're more than just handrolls- the hamachi carpaccio was excellent and they had a five piece nigiri sampler, which can be either raw or seared (we chose seared and loved it). Service is fantastic and sushi guy was friendly and helpful. They also have a full bar but I didn't check on sakes. There is valet parking ($6) or perhaps park for free at Whole Foods. $100 for two of us, and we were full.

We choose our first time at Cino for my husband’s birthday celebration based on the shining write ups. He’s an Italian F & B guy, so when he said his Rigatoni Bolognese was “orgasmic”, this is high praise. I ordered the Crab Spaghetti (out of Branzino after the server sold it to me) and it was delicious. We will def come back for the Branzino. Constructive criticism: The team approach to service is an understood trend; however it would be great if staff would introduce themselves. In the beginning it was a bit confusing. We did enjoy the enthusiasm and cozy atmosphere. Several nearby parking options were convenient with a short walk.

the staff is very attentive. Kee was great and cooked our meal perfectly. It was quite loud but still loved it

Merriman's Ward is definitely our first preferred spot for wino wine share get togethers. Food's fantastic and approachable and the corkage is still wino friendly compared with other places that have corkage charges set to discourage bringing special bottles to share with friends. We enjoyed a 3 hour commiseration over a bottle of Radio Silence! Servers were attentive but not intrusive--they let us do our wine share thing; very nice and appropriate wine glasses. All in all a place not to be missed. Thanks and mahalo again Merriman's Ward!!

Staff was excellent. Our waiter, Keenan, was super awesome at explaining the menu and dishes. Relaxed vibes. There was dining room and outdoor seatings. Food was really good and plentiful, family style plating so it is has the homie feel to it.
