The atmosphere is striking in this restaurant, but the food is definitely overpriced for what you get. I had a lobster trio which was subpar. The tempura was tasteless and a waste of lobster, while the risotto was improperly prepared like all american versions of the dish. The rolls were overpriced and just slightly above average. The desserts are worthwhile. more

The restaurant is beautiful, The food is definately not great. The drinks are over priced and they add 20% Automatic Service charge which takes all incentive away for being attentive by the staff. Would not come back. more
