The food was excellent however the service was slow and the place was extremely noisy. Having to almost yell to talk to your friends doesn't make you want to come back. That was disappointing.

The place is really nice and the service was amazing. But the sushi was too salty until the point that was hard to eat it all.

Absolutely amazing ! It’s a french + asian fusion, I was really impressed. We went during happy hour at the bar ~5 pm and it was PACKED, however, around 6:30 when we left, it was much emptier so that is a better time to go. This place tops DC’s happy hour scene w great prices and great food

Never got to try their food all the waiters hurried around me while I stood up front waiting for a table. No greeting or anything.

Mixed bag. Aged Negroni was very disappointing — weak/watery. Shots-tini was excellent. Little gem lettuce salad looked great but was way overdressed, washing out other flavors. Hamachi crudo was solid, although one piece seemed a bit off in flavor. Scallop Aburi was delicious— best item we had. Crispy shrimp and salmon ceviche rolls were both nicely done. Service was attentive and I like the casual, yet some elevated atmosphere. So pleasant overall with some distinct misses.

Service was amazing. Food, not so much - chicken was over-cooked and there was lipstick on a glass.. The setting was nice but very loud.

Food is okay, had their Kobe roll, lamb chops, and fish and chips roll. Only Kobe roll was good. They were skimping on the food and quality was okay. I can get better food at the same price elsewhere. Service was bad- my date and I waited 10-15 minutes before we had to ask for a waiter so that surely did not help the experience. Won't be returning personally

The staff was ready to go home. Our server seemed angry. Staff was socializing, even sitting at tables and checking phones. We did not get refills on water or drinks or offered dessert. Although we were eager to leave this experience behind. Why does the restaurant offer reservations at that time if their employees are so clearly unhappy about working at that time?
