"Never gets too crowded."

"A cold bottle of Spanish beer Estrella Galicia would go well with the fat-free crispy-fried chicken skin. Rabo de Toro is tasty and melts in the mouth. Poor exhaust, though."

"The staff have a 'too cool for school' vibe that I find alienating. Coffee and food are both good, though."

"The corridors are very narrow, avoid if you're claustrophobic."

"I was seated at an outdoor table that blocked one of two exit areas, even if there were other vacant tables. Most unpleasant to be eating while people bump your table on their way out or to the loo."

"The signature chirashi bowl has enough ingredients to consider it a celebratory dish. Service is always personable and efficient. Love this place. California maki are gigantic, five in a plate."
