    Fresh fish, portioned rice for sushi- ordered set Omakase.Uni is fresh (ordered extra Uni) but perhaps rice was just a tiny bit more than expected.

    We ate there on a Wednesday night and there were only two other couples, which made for a quiet and enjoyable meal with an attentive staff. The sushi chef was right in front of us so we could see his dextrous skills in preparing the finely cut pieces of fish and applying the delicate garnishes. The fish was fresh and the creations delicious. For a special treat, I highly recommend this omakase experience!

    We took our extended family for Saturday brunch, a last minute reservation for 9 people to celebrate birthdays and Mother’s Day. As vegetarians, we’d always walked by but never tried it because surely there wouldn’t be much for us at a “Cuban Grill”. Turns out, lots of options and a great brunch menu! Food was delicious and good portion sizes. Service level was just right and very friendly. And they’ll make a mocktail out of anything - try especially the original mojito mocktail! We will definitely be coming back.
