Fuimos a comer sushi y no había sushi. Los cócteles estuvieron delicioso, pero no pudimos cenar y probar lo q deseábamos ya que no había disponible. No se si le daría otra oportunidad, quizás preguntaría antes de llegar si hay disponibilidad en los platos. Deben reservar primero siempre

Food is really good, drinks are well made. Service is very friendly. But the place is great for drinks, but uncomfortable to eat. There's only a few table and the bar has these awkward uncomfortable chairs that makes eating not a pleasant experience, specially when you're eating soup.

I got a regular table. Witch is confortable, but most spaces have beautiful grandma inspired lunge chairs witch tho beautiful, they are not practical for eating ramen. Now, for my case in the table. Food was amazing, I order probably half of the menu and it was all great. The custom drinks they made were really professional and good. As a recommendation, amp up the serving size for the ramen so it compares to other restaurants and take out all the big chairs and put regular or high tables so its confortable for everyone.

Llegamos y nos recibieron muy amigable. Reservamos para counter pero nos pusieron en lounge porque según me explicaron, para grupos de 5 o mas no los ponen en el counter. La mesera nos ofreció cambiarnos si queríamos pero decidimos quedarnos. Las comidas ordenadas fueron: Bao Buns Japan Whiskey Pulled Pork: El bun se sentía como una nube, muy "fluffy" y la carne muy buena. Recomendado para picar en lo que llega la comida. Si son 2 personas deben pedir individual ya que solo traen 2 cada orden. Tonkotsu: El Broth fue el highlight del bowl, bien condimentado y rico, los fideos largos y sabroso. Kaiju Lo Mein: Este plato corrió la mesa entera y a todos nos encanto. Frozen Geisha: Esperamos 10 minutos como nos indicaron ya que llegamos justo a la hora que comienza servicio y nos dejaron saber. Estábamos de acuerdo en esperar y VALIÓ la pena la espera, muy rico. Mecha Geisha: La verdadera movie, con un Romero encendido en el top es entregado y no fallo en su sabor a jengibre y gin. Mi única queja es el seating del lobby es un poco awkward para comer y pasamos trabajo ya que donde entregan el ramen es como una caldera estilo cast iron y están muy calientes para uno poder agarrarlo con una mano y comer con otra. Aunque no lo mencionamos teníamos a una amiga embarazada y paso un poco de trabajo en comer ya que la mesa queda baja y uno tiene que echarse para al frente y doblarse un poco para comer. Si fuera a volver preferiría to go o lamentablemente ir solo para estar en la barra donde se haría mas cómodo comer.

The place is super cool and attractive. Employees offered a good service. The drinks and the place are the main characters. Food wasn’t bad but it wasn’t on the level of the other elements offered. For example, my eel sushi had crab and it wasn’t described as an ingredient of the sushi in the menu. Apart from that, the noodles seemed pretty basic. The pulled pork gyoza and the eel sushi where my favorite plates. Overall had a great experience but the food wasn’t at the level of the place.

The Pad Thai was soooo good, we ordered it extra spicy. Loved the eel sushi and the pork belly baos. The Tantanmen was great! The yellow curry, order it with pork belly, it's heaven. From the cocktails, the margarita was my fave!

Biggest complaint was it’s way too cold in there! Note to self next time to bring a sweater and wear pants. The ambiance is cool- but slightly amiss. The table situations face bare walls, could use more art / thoughtful seating arrangement. Couches look comfy for cocktails but not for food, esp. soups. Food was delicious! Will go back for that.

We were a group of four the food was great. However the main course for two people arrived normally but the main course for the other two took over an hour later. When the server brought the food as if nothing had happened he said it took this long because these two plates were taken to another table by error. After that he got defensive with us. I would have love to go back but I don’t promote places with this kind of service.
