Huge shoutout to Josh for guiding us through the menu! Everything he suggested was spot on. The hamachi and toro were next level, and those lobster tacos were a highlight. Loved how the service felt so personal even in a big space.

I haven’t eaten here yet but I made a birthday reservation a month in advance, changed it 4 days in advance bcuz of my flight being delayed and then had to cancel it altogether 2 days in advance bcuz the blizzard in New York canceled my trip. Every single hostess I talked to on the phone was so kind. Even when I called to cancel. Yall hire great staff and as a fellow service worker I would’ve loved to dine here and experience the full customer service experience. 10/10 great job

Decent food. Spicy tuna and ribeye was great. Decent atmosphere with curtains and candles doing the heavy lifting. Bussers and expos were amazing and friendly. Server must've been coked up -Tried hitting on my girlfriend while I was in the bathroom, otherwise he never checked on us. Then he accused us of lying about not getting an appetizer.
Go to nobu malibu if you want your money's worth. Or Yamashiro for insanely superior ambience and service.
