Our first experience here and wow, gorgeous. The pink lemonade is 10/10. Everything in the menu we enjoyed and it was to die for. Quick amazing service. Genevieve especially catered for us so kindly, including showing us how to use the chopsticks and even made a handy trick for me to use them! Beautiful time for our anniversary, thank you!

This restaurant is simply phenomenal, a truly incredible experience. I’m honestly surprised this restaurant has no Michelin stars. The service was outstanding and the staff were very kind, and the food is on a whole new level. Truly incredible every peice of food was an out of world experience. Highly recommend to anyone, I would definitely come back here every day if I could.

My first time at this restaurant and I really enjoyed the whole experience. Food was served quickly and always piping hot. The sashimi was super fresh and delicious. The scallops were top tier.

Went there for the first time and loved it. Pictures may not look as great due to the light but I totally recommend going there. The food, taste, place itself was amazing. They do not have their own parking but other than that it was a great experience.

I had dinner here which is an all-you-can-eat meal. I love all the dish, especially the sushis and grills. I was so full and happy with my meal. The staff is really friendly and nice.

One of the very best evenings we have ever had. The food was fabulous with no bad dishes at all. The service was top notch, could not be faulted. They accommodated our wheelchair/crutches without any fuss at all and best of all gave us a separate menu and ordering pad for the food allergy at our table. This meant, the person who usually feels a little excluded felt entirely included. Very very pleased, great work. If only everyone thought this way. Super fast, super friendly. Highly highly recommended.

Been here a few times now. Booking is advised as its always very busy. Staff are very helpful The restaurant is spotless. The menu is very large so I'm sure there's something to cater for everyone. Everything is made to order so perfectly fresh an made in house. They also have a fantastic selection of drinks ,cocktails an mocktails. I look forward to going again.
