KE: Arrive before 6pm Mon-Thurs and do the prix-fixe. It feeds two and is an amazing deal! Service is outstanding, space decorated minimally. Get sake after din at Decibel, down the block!

Ruby Anaya: So good. They don’t have their liquor license yet and you cannot BYOB but the green tea is yum plus they serve complimentary sake 🍶 for those who wish to partake! Great experience & great sushi 🍣
Jed Kass: Intimate setting (bar-style seating) for a delicious and well-tailored Omakase sushi dinner. Less about the alcohol here, though we were given a glass/shot of sake at the end
Lauren Smith: BYOSake 🍶🍣 omakase reasonably priced and so fresh. Can order a la cart after the omakase flight if still hungry 😋
