The food and service was very good. Sangria was a little flat tasting but other than that we all had a great meal! It was our first visit and we will return. I would recommend checking this restaurant out if you haven’t been.

We had a delightful evening - completely unhurried (were there 2 ½ hours). Food was amazing and we shared everything we ordered - portions are all appetizer size and its more like ordering a bunch of tapas. We all agreed that our favorites were the Sorghum Ginger Salad, Sesame Broccoluni, Japanese Fried Chicken, Nashville Hot Oysters, Mushroom Yakisoba. Lamb and Beef Skewers, and the Egg Custard. We also had cocktails and the Brandy Umeshu and Sake:) It was a treat for all the senses. Our servers were delightful and helpful but not hovering and one diner with Celiac had plenty of options. We will definitely be back.

Our first time at this restaurant & I have to say: “Amazing unlimited soup & salad! Very delicious! My favorites were the clam chowder & broccoli cheddar soup. And for the salad: the mozzarella & tomato!” The mini pizookie was great, for a nice finishing touch. Great Value! We will be back!

Menu with a variety of items. This was in the midst of a snowstorm so a few items were understandably not available. Staff was friendly and service was prompt. The food was tasty.
