    Excellent service! Darius was attentive without being annoying. I would give more stars if possible. The food was amazing!

    Unfortunately I don't think we will be back. Our server checked on us once to quickly see if everything came out okay, leaving before we could really answer. We couldn't get her attention to get extra napkins. The fried shrimp was soggy, the steak was tough and I was up with GI problems all night. I feel absolutely awful. I did enjoy coming here in the past but I can't justify another chance if I'm going to end up ill.

    Ordered on door dash for lunch at work. Unfortunately got busy right when it arrived and ate the takoyaki cold. Still the best takoyaki I've had in town! I can't imagine how good it would have been if it was piping hot as it had come out of the kitchen. Had (got) to put my kiwami kuro Ramen in the fridge to save for dinner after work. Best bowl I've had in a long time. Perfectly seasoned rich and warm bowl of Ramen to cap off the first cold night of the fall/winter. Can't wait to come into the restaurant! Photo of an empty bowl because I drank all the broth after the noodles were gone!

    One waiter working the floor was busy when I came in, but I was quickly acknowledged. Very noisy! Why is the bar sticky it was so sticky that my plates and glass were sticking to the counter. Other than that food is delicious!
