Food and service are very good. Restaurant is pretty. Noise level is moderate. Need to park in Heming garage.

Elegant Japanese food! The ambiance and service are really nice. I love that they had purse hooks for the table and the waiter/staff were the perfect amount of attentive. The food was good, with my least favorites being the lobster roll (super tiny but super expensive, I guess I don't need imperial caviar that badly in my life) and the lollipop roll (the fish was very fresh, but it came topped with some goopy sauce and there was no rice, both of which were not mentioned on the menu). The rest of the food was very good - I tried the roasted cauliflower (light, but filling and not so cooked down that you forget it's cauliflower), grilled salmon (cooked to perfection and paired great with a side of white rice), and soba salad (yum yum - great flavor with crunchy vegetables on top). I also had the lychee martini, which was excellent. Overall it was a tasteful meal (literally and figuratively) with excellent service in a refined dining space. Recommend! read more

Exquisite $20+ cocktails and can score good deals on the cocktails ($8-$10) during happy hour Mon - Fri 5--7pm. Glad it was extended from 6:30-7pm and more drinks were added to the happy hour menu! I really enjoyed the unique profiles and blend of flavors for each cocktail. The Man, go ahead was a bubbly mango cocktail while Totoro's Garden had a sweet and tangy citrus flavor with cucumber and mint flavor, and the Out of Office turn a swet twist on Pina colada with cereal milk clarified paired with pineapple, coconut, rum, and lemongrass, It was honestly hard to pick my favorite drink. There's a new line-up of cocktails frequently, and looking forward to trying them. The 1st time came here, the drinks were a flop The Lychee Martini was very boozy and didn't have much flavor. The Flor de Cana Pineapple Mojito is interestingly on happy hour, but not on the main cocktail menu was okay and not that flavorful. The Cauliflower Taco was truly bite-size and was the teeny tiniest taco I've ever seen. I wasn't a big fan of the flavor, so I was glad that it was gone within 2 bites. I wish there were more vegetarian options on the menu. Will come back to try the new cocktails on the menu! read more

Modan: A Pleasant Modern Japanese Lunch Tucked into a prime Tysons location, Modan makes a polished first impression with its sleek, modern décor and attentive service. Its $30 three-course prix fixe lunch is designed as an approachable introduction to the restaurant's modern Japanese cooking. Started with the Yellowtail Jalapeño and Salmon Carpaccio--both quite fine, with distinctly different textures and a clever Japanese sensibility. The Filet Mignon with truffle sauce was tender and nicely cooked, with a subtle ponzu-like Japanese accent. The truffle presence, however, was rather restrained--almost playing hide-and-seek on the plate. The added sashimi plate was above average: the fish was fresh and well handled, though not necessarily more distinctive than what one might find at other good Japanese restaurants. Dessert was equally pleasant: the mochi and gelato were both above average without being particularly revelatory. Overall, Modan delivers a polished, enjoyable lunch experience. I liked it--and would happily return to explore more of the menu. read more

An outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The service was absolutely top-notch: attentive, knowledgeable, and perfectly paced without ever feeling intrusive. My wife and I opted for the tasting menu with the wine pairing, and every course was beautifully prepared and thoughtfully matched. The food was creative, expertly executed, and easily among the best meals we've had in the Tysons area. As an unexpected bonus, we even spotted Alex Ovechkin dining there, which made the evening that much more memorable. If you're looking for a special occasion restaurant or just want to treat yourself to an exceptional meal, Moran is absolutely worth the visit. We'll definitely be back. read more

Had an exceptional omakase experience for Mother's Day. From the moment we walked in, the service was polished, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling pretentious. We tried the Chef's tasting menu. Every course was beautifully presented and thoughtfully paced, allowing the quality of the ingredients to truly shine. The fish was incredibly fresh, the flavors were refined and balanced, and the craftsmanship behind each bite felt worthy of a Michelin-level dining experience. The attention to detail -- from the sushi rice to the premium cuts and elegant plating -- showed a level of care that's hard to find outside of major culinary cities. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between modern luxury and intimate omakase tradition, making it ideal for a special night out. The staff's knowledge, professionalism, and passion elevated the entire evening. Modan is easily one of the most impressive Japanese dining experiences in Northern Virginia and a true gem for sushi and omakase lovers. read more

Wow. What a very high-end restaurant! I love the vibe and design of the restaurant. Deff a spot where wearing pajamas or gym clothes is not suggested. lol. Loved our waiter, he was very entertaining and gave us a great experience. We did the Modan Tasting Experience (Six Course Meal*). My apologies for not taking note on what is each dish, but we enjoyed the meals. We still had room for more food, so if you have a big appetite, just keep in mind this will not fill you. lol. So many options to choose from! I really enjoyed their sushi so I would definitely come back to eat their sushi. I would recommend this spot! read more

This is my new favorite happy hour in Tysons. We came for ladies night and had a blast!!!! The restaurant is modern and clean, beautiful high windows and vibes are great. I was genuinely impressed with the service, professional bartenders, attentive servers, it was a smooth operation. They always offered something and checked on us attentively. The quality of the food and drinks are impressive too. Matching with everything else about this restaurant. I really recommend the tiger punch but you can't go wrong with anything. The minor inconvenience is parking, they validate for 90 minutes but we spent much longer here. Despite this, I cannot wait to come back. read more

This is a very end Japanese restaurant in Tyson's corner. It was recommended by our cousin and we decided to give it a try for my husband's birthday. We love the Wren, which is another high end Japanese place is Tyson's. So we're super excited to try this one. If you are a non-vegetarian, you have plenty of delicious options. However, as a vegetarian, the options are there but limited. Here is what I ordered: - Edamame: got the non spicy version and it was good. - Cauliflower: this was too bland for my liking. Didn't enjoy it that much. - Veggie Sushi: this was quite good. It had a good blend of veggies in there. - For dessert, we got the creme brulee and absolutely loved it. The service was excellent at this restaurant. Our service was superb and made sure we were always taken care of. The ambiance is super cozy too. I would love to try their fried rice next time. I feel that Wren has more veggie options, but I still recommend this place for vegetarians. Give it a try. read more

Amazing ambiance and service! The restaurant itself is beautiful, great vibes for a date or special occasion. However, the Japanese food was decent, not the best, didn't taste authentic, but more like americanized Japanese fare. You don't get a good bang for your buck either, as portion sizes are small. The chicken karaage is usually my favorite appetizer to order at Japanese restaurants, but the portion sizes here much too small, and the karaage did have a good crisp to it. But they do give a considerable amount of dipping sauce to go with it. The miso soup also had a watered down taste, the miso flavor was not as strong or bold, although I did like the tofu pieces in the soup! The positives were definitely their cocktails and desserts, I enjoyed the Tanuki Tail cocktail and their Yuzu sorbet and Matcha Cheesecake! I would mostly just come back just for their bar, dessert, and overall vibes. read more

This was absolutely a horrible experience. I dine out several times a week and this was one of the worst experiences too to bottom that I have ever experienced. I had a party of 7 people and the server pushed that chefs omakase style menu. It was $110 a person so we expected a great experience. Our reservations were at 6 pm so we got in before the restaurant got busy. The first course took nearly an hour and was decent. It went totally downhill from there. The 2nd course was rubbery and clearly pre-made/pre-refrigerated. It took another hour to get this. The whole table barely ate any of it. We waited another 30 mins for our entrees and didn't get any refreshed drinks from the when we originally sat down. The entrees were in edible. Truly the worst steak and old fish I have ever had. The server kept asking us how things were and we gave them very direct and honest feedback. After nearly 3 hours, the manager finally came over and just said I need to check with the chef. They brought us a bill for the entire amount when we skipped the dessert portion because it was so bad and took so long. We were just ready to leave and get out of there. Finally the manager came over and offered a nominal discount that was insulting and never made it right. This restaurant is a complete embarrassment and should not be in business. To add insult to injury they only offer free parking for an hour and a half so I had to pay an extra $10 to park because of their inadequate service. I didn't even enter my credit card so even the parking structure was in on the gig that charged me for parking without my credit card number being entered. Stay away! The service and management is the only thing worse than the food! read more

Very disappointing experience at Modan. The prices suggest a premium dining experience, but the food simply didn't deliver. The biggest letdown was the Wagyu dumplings. For the price, they felt like a complete rip-off. The filling was underwhelming, lacked any real Wagyu flavor, and the dish was nowhere near worth what was charged. Overall, the quality of the food did not justify the high price point. I've had much better sushi and Japanese food elsewhere for significantly less money. The presentation was decent, but taste is what matters, and this meal fell far short of expectations. I don't mind paying premium prices when the food is exceptional. Unfortunately, this felt overpriced, overrated, and not worth a return visit. read more

Stopped by with a friend on a Sunday night with reservations. I don't think reservations were necessary though because it was pretty empty. This is not to say the food is bad but the restaurant is very hard to find! It's hidden at the back side of the Heming apartment building. We ordered a lot of food and everything was super tasty. I liked how all the flavors were not too aggressive and complemented each other very well. The presentation of the desserts was crazy too! The server explained all our menu items thoroughly and guided us through the selection process. I would recommend for a girls night out or a date night. It has a calm moody elegant vibe. Will definitely be back! read more

Service: 5 Decor: 5 Food: 2.5 We went for omakase and sat at the chef's counter. This was one of the biggest disappointing omakases I've ever had. And at that price, I'm not impressed. The chef was nice but the actual courses left a lot to be desired. The flavors weren't therefor those that weren't just fish. The presentation was fine. The fish was fresh but nothing to sing home about. I think the chef could have been more engaging about what we're eating. The sake was great- we ended up getting two bottles. Prices are a bit steep overall- def an amount we're willing to shell out for quality omakase. Not this. The restaurant itself is beautiful- so maybe a work event would be fitting. read more

The food was decent but the timing of the arrival of the plates were abysmal. First off, they messed up my drink order, said they were going to fix it but never did until I brought it up again. We were a party of 4 and essentially 3 out of the 4 had to sit and watch while the 1 meal came out. The meals arrived one at a time. 1 person would eat their meal while the other 3 watched. Then another person's meal would arrive and the 3 would watch them eat. For the price point of the restaurant it was a really bizarre dinner service. This alone is enough for me to not recommend or return for another visit, which is disappointing because i felt like there was high potential. read more

I actually enjoyed everything we ordered. But the prices are a bit on the higher side for what you get. Also they charge extra for cucumbers (for uni sashimi) and jalapenos (rice dish wasn't spicy enough so asked for extra). My favs were the scallop, tacos and Indonesia hot pot rice thing. Sort of reminded me of bibimbap. Our server forgot our first order of drinks I think cause it didn't come out till first dish was done and we ordered everything at once. Liz bartender in training was running food came by a few times to check up on us and explain things. Even gave me a mini walk around tour of the restaurant. Super sweet and adorable! We got a huge dessert platter everything on it was good. read more

My friends and I came here for Happy Hour on my birthday. They serve this at the bar and high top tables as you enter the restaurant. Ambiance: nice clean open restaurant. Seating around the sushi bar, dining tables around the perimeter, separate large bar and high top communal tables. Service: it wasn't busy when we got there around 5:30pm on a Monday. Food and drinks came out at good pace. Food: we came for small bites and cocktails didn't their Happy Hour. I was hoping to be blown away but I was a bit underwhelmed by the food. I know they are known for their wagyu and omaske...I will see how I feel about dropping a pretty penny with those dishes. The cocktails were great!!! Definitely will come back for those. read more

From the moment we arrived everyone told us happy anniversary! When we arrived to our table, we had a hand written card. Our server, August took amazing care of us and the manager Corey was so friendly and personable coming to speak with us. The food was crafted in such an artistic way, combining the most devine ingredients with both flavor and texture! It was truly an art form in our mouth!

This is my second time coming to Modan and I've had great service both times. From the moment you walk in the door the hostess greets you with a smile and you feel welcome. She even offered a purse hanger for the table! Diego was our server and he was very nice and explained the menu to us and was very patient. I did see a few comments saying it was expensive but it's Tyson's area what do you expect? The sushi was amazing and we got the same rolls as last time. Next time we come here we want to try the omakase! read more

I had a reservation on May 22 at 7:30 PM, and unfortunately the experience was very disappointing on several fronts. The food was delicious but poor service overshadowed my first visit to your restaurant. First, when I ordered sushi, the waiter asked if I wanted fresh wasabi. I said yes, assuming (like most customers would) that wasabi comes with sushi at no extra charge. At no point did he mention that this was a $12 add-on charge nor was it clearly listed on the menu. When I received the bill, I was surprised to see such a high charge for a very small portion. If this is a premium item, it should be clearly explained--otherwise it feels misleading. To make matters worse, I didn't even consume it. Another staff member cleared the table immediately after I finished my sushi and removed the wasabi altogether, yet I was still charged. Overall service was lacked quality as well. My partner ordered white rice with his filet mignon, but it didn't arrive until we had to ask again--by that time, he had almost finished his steak. The waiter didn't even apologize for the delay. Between the lack of price transparency, premature clearing of dishes, and inattentive service, the experience fell well below expectations. As a first-time customer, my experience was both frustrating and extremely disappointing. I hope the restaurant improves staff training, particularly around explaining additional charges and basic service etiquette. At a minimum, I am requesting a refund of the wasabi charge and an opportunity to discuss this situation further. read more

Even though I popped into Modan late in their lunch shift, the staff was welcoming and incredibly kind. The lunch special has three courses for $30. I started with yellowtail sashimi and jalapeño. It was fresh and crisp. For my main, I had their Pink Lady roll, and the flavors blended perfectly. To conclude, I chose the affogato. This seemed like an odd menu item in a Japanese restaurant, but it worked well. While on the pricier side, the cost was well worth it. read more

A chic and upscale Japanese spot in Tysons. My boyfriend took us here for our anniversary and the place was stunning. We came on a Friday night and the live DJ added a fun vibe. The decor is beautiful, the space is big, and staff was friendly. Parking is in a garage, and they validate, so bring your ticket. Food was mostly good. Sushi was fresh, flavorful, and nicely presented. I recommend the Pink Lady and Firecracker rolls. However, i'd say that the fancier items were a letdown. The wagyu dumplings tasted like cheese balls, and the 'bread' on the $42 lobster roll (which can be finished in 3 bites) tasted exactly like a vanilla wafer topped with caviar. The sweet Japanese omelet also tasted exactly like a Korean cheesecake. Service was fine. Overall, a fun spot with solid sushi, but I'd skip the overpriced premium dishes. read more

Made a reservation on a Saturday night at 8pm at the sushi counter, and despite the heavy down pouring rain just a half hour prior, I was surprised to see the entire restaurant was full when we arrived. The restaurant is easy to find when you're driving, but when the elevators from the underground garage are out of service, it definitely makes finding your way out a little more challenging! We ended up finding our way to the street level and then making our way up the steps to the second floor to get to the restaurant entrance. Upon entering the restaurant, the lighting was slightly dim, initially suggesting an intimate and sophisticated setting, but is quickly offset by the loud music. The dinner menu is pretty self-explanatory and not as elaborate as some other sushi establishments, making the decision making process less burdensome. We shared the roasted cauliflower appetizer, which had an interesting tart and citrusy flavor from the sauce. Although the dish enhanced our dinner by adding a satisfying crunch, I'm not sure I would order it again as the tartness just didn't seem to complement the cauliflower well, and instead, overpowered the natural mild and subtly sweet flavor of the cauliflower. The salmon carpaccio, on the other hand, was very well executed. The tartness of the dressing, texture of the toppings, and freshness of the garnish paired nicely with the salmon. I was definitely impressed by this dish, and would order this again next time without hesitation. The star of our dinner was the toro caviar, which comes with 2 pieces per order. This is one of the options on the Chef's Creation menu, and consists of coarsely minced fatty tuna held together by two small pieces of crispy milk bread and topped with caviar. This was a perfect combination of crunchy and savory without any fishiness, and the fatty tuna just melts in your mouth! I was impressed, and would order seconds and thirds next time (especially if the menu is unchanged, and nothing else stands out at the time)! As for dessert, we ordered the matcha cheesecake, which is Modan's most popular dessert option. The dessert can easily be for one person, but it can also be shared between two people if you're already both full. The dessert is presented as a creamy matcha filling within a small wooden square box, topped with small pieces of crunchy, slightly sweet and savory pieces of cheesecake "crust" and a few pieces of freshly chopped strawberry and an edible flower, with a side of yuzu sorbet on top of small pieces of cheesecake "crust." Without a dessert menu that provides a description of the dessert and all of its "glory", I didn't expect to be served a deconstructed cheesecake (let alone with a side of yuzu sorbet), and maybe that's the reason for my diminished enjoyment of this dessert. I will most likely skip dessert here next time. Overall, Modan offers a nice setting for a date night, but the loud music and the mostly mediocre food options make for more to be desired. I won't hesitate to come back, but I also won't have as high of expectations for the food next time. read more

Modan's was quite an experience but I don't feel like it was the experience for me. We went as a group of 8 for a friend's birthday. The decor was beautiful and the large windows made for a spectacular sunset view. The bathrooms were clean and individually themed. Service was lovely, when they came around. It took quite sometime to get orders placed or received or the attention of the server. But, when he was with us, he was very informative and patient. Maybe that's why it took so long. The food was disappointing. We ordered nearly everything off the apps and sashimi menus because the portions were so tiny. (I would not recommend that as our bills were higher than the rooftop.) We left wanting more. However, the dry aged sashimi was delicious. This may be a class shock but, we ordered several cocktails and noted that some of us were charged for the square ice cubes vs the round ones. We were not asked if we had a preference so that was a shock. Overall, glad we tried it but would not go back. read more

There wasn't anything special about their sushi or sashimi that was worthy of a $7-$10 price tag PER PIECE. We started with the tuna tacos, those were very good.

Service - 5/5 Food - 2/5 Decided to venture out of our normal sushi spots with the hubs on a Friday afternoon to enjoy my birthday lunch here. We ordered the king salmon carpaccio, chirashi bowl, & the Chef's classic roll selection. Salmon carpaccio was good. Loved the tangy & sweet combination of flavors. On the downside, the rice in the rolls & in the chirashi bowl was overseasoned, overcooked, & mushy. A step up from grocery store sushi. The fish quality was lacking & was a strange, leathery texture. We were comped 3 different desserts, which was a pleasant surprise. Creme brulee was good, but the sugar crust on top was way too thick. Mochi icecream was delicious. The chef also gave us some little bites of cake & chocolate. Our favorite bite by far! The cake was dense but moist & had great cardamom flavor. Overall, great presentation but the food just fell flat for us & had us leaving very disappointed, especially for this price point. We'll stick to our go-to, Ariake. The space is huge & tastefully decorated & service was just excellent. read more

Review is for father's day brunch buffet. Having to charge the entire amount $95+20% tip (minus tax) to rsvp is ridiculous. There wasn't even enough information on what all was to be offered, nor what entree selection there would be. I reached out via social media to ask but never got a response. In a sense, you're going in blindly not knowing what to expect. I've never been here, so I figured, if it's good, I'll come back for dinner. The place is clean, modern, has clean bathroom which is always a plus. Negative is the parking situation, which is common in that area. The chair's were the most uncomfortable I've ever sat in. The back support is so low, when you lean back to feels like its going to snap your spine in half. I couldn't even lean back as a result. As for the food, it was mediocre at best. Definitely not worth anywhere near the $95 price tag. I don't eat fried foods, which made up most of the starters. The rolls were underwhelming, the nigiri was decent but there was only 4 options, shrimp, salmon, tuna, yellow tail. How many of those can you keep eating before it gets boring. The oyster's were very good. The wagyu dumpling I didn't eat due to being fried but they super gimmicky. One of those instagram foods that looks good on camera but doesn't deliver. Those who did eat them said they were not good. I couldn't wrap my head around how small the main entree portions were. It was like 1 big bite or 2 small bites. The positive was they kept refreshing all the food keeping it fresh. End of the day, I walked out unsatisfied, feeling like I got ripped off. It is what it is, not good enough that I would come back. read more

We were pretty excited to check this place out and wanted to love them, but Modan was quite a let down. It took a while for anyone to greet us. Once they eventually did acknowledge us, our original server stopped by to let us know someone else would be taking our table and that person stood there confusedly asking why she was being assigned our table while we continued to wait to be given drinks or have our orders taken. This haphazard service experience persisted through a Saturday night dinner visit, when we observed that while there was a live DJ, the restaurant was strikingly somewhat empty for a nice weather evening. The lollipop special sushi roll starter we had was surprisingly kind of lukewarm and fishy tasting, as were the lobster and salmon tacos. Our seaweed salad was a unique but disappointing rendition that was oddly soupy / watery. The miso black cod was overcooked and the spicy miso lamb chops were tasty, but weren't the slightest bit spicy. This was one of the most lackluster meals I've had dining out in a while and I would say the ambiance is one of the only highlights we enjoyed here. Our server advised that their signature cocktails are all made in large batches ahead at the start of the day so if they run out of one, it isn't possible to order the drink which I found to be a little disappointing for $22+ cocktails. There's a cute backdrop at the entrance for photo ops, which is on brand with this place's seeming to focus mostly on aesthetic and not on actual food and service execution. We were lured in by their boasting that one of the head chefs was formerly with Nobu, but I think it would have been better just to have gone back to nobu or Shoto where we've had consistent better experiences than this place. read more

3.5 Tucked away in Tyson's, but still no readily available free parking, a paid garage opens right next to the entrance of this place. A bit overpriced. Decent service, really nice decor. Sushi was okay - the rolls weren't prepared that nice, with end pieces looking like they are falling apart, and the rice left a bit to be desired. The Dragonball Z roll was ok - you don't taste the fish much which can be a good thing, but I like the eel flavor and this tasted like just sauce. The salmon avocado roll was good but pretty standard. The nigiri is a bit overpriced at once 1 piece per order but I think they said it's because all their fish is dry aged, too. I personally didn't taste the difference in the dry aged sushi but maybe my palate isn't refined enough. I didn't like their ginger and their wasabi wasn't very strong (was it not fresh? I barely got the sinus clearing that I usually crave). Assorted vegetable tempura was okay, hard to share especially when they say this restaurant is supposed to be 'tapas style'- I also thought the vegetables didn't have much flavor and the batter wasn't that great. The eggplant was my favorite. The spicy Karaage was really good. Nice flavor and crunch. Would get again. A few at our table got a large Tbone to share. Very nice presentation and accompaniments (loved the pickled vegetables) - I don't eat steak so can't say much about it but I think they enjoyed it. It seemed pricey to me but I think for 35oz in a restaurant, that price tag of almost $250 is pretty standard. It was really nice of them to provide a hojicha creme brulee for my spouse's birthday for us to share. It was just okay, however, a bit on the watery side and the caramelized sugar crust was a bit thick. Unsure yet if I'd come back; definitely out of the way for us. I think if I came back it wouldn't be for the sushi -- would love to try the miso cod and other items. read more

Hated it - do not recommend! Frustratingly bad service for the grotesquely high price tag. For premium prices I expected a sophisticated experience, with friendly staff as soon as you walked in, and attentive servers that would explain each cut of fish as it came out. We got none of that. The sushi chef (we sat at the counter) literally handed us our plate of sushi over the counter, which was weird (the counter is a lot higher than our table, so we had to reach up awkwardly to get it). Our other dishes were served regularly by the servers, so this caught us off guard. The hostesses were unprofessional and aloof (it felt like I walked into a Wendy's), it took forever to get anyone to acknowledge us when we got seated, and at the end of the meal, they mischarged us. Extremely chaotic and unorganized. The food was overpriced for how mediocre it was. The karaage was pretty tasty, but kind of burnt. The wagyu taco was disappointing, and definitely not worth $21 for the tiny snack that it is. The spicy tuna roll was good, but nothing special. I liked the king salmon nigiri, but the barracuda was chewy and had a strange leathery texture. The trevally jack was unique. Overall, there's way better sushi in the area. We left hungry, and the whole dinner experience was ruined by painfully slow service, lack of care for the customer, and food that was not executed with the level of finesse required from a place charging such absurd prices. It was akin to eating at a busy fast food joint, though fast food would've been the better option. read more

However, the service and food didn't live up to expectations. Several items were forgotten, and while everything from the edamame to the wagyu dumplings, spicy tuna rice cake, lobster roll, and nigiri was fine, nothing really stood out--especially given the higher prices. Even desserts like the matcha cheesecake, lava cake, and crème brûlée were just okay. The manager never stopped by to check in, which made the experience feel impersonal. With some improvements in attention to detail and consistency, it could be much better. read more

It is a relatively new restaurant right across from the Archer hotel with high price & small portion. 1. Reservation: tricky Well, they have a huge bar area with super long table that can sit up to 10 people and it has always been open, so reservation is not necessary. However, the greeter is so mean and will demand you to have a reservation. Also, she demands full name and number when you are just trying to sit at the bar. Even hospitals and police stations don't demand that to enter! 2. Food: tastes okay but not good for the price point it is at. Very small portion and high price. DRINKS: $30 old fashioned? and it didn't taste good and barely covered half of the glass. It is a rip off! - clear mushroom: truly is clear. no flavor. mushroom in clear water like. - rolls: for $20, we get a small bite that was not delicious - $21 taco: very small 1 bite wagyu taco. So, beware of the price level. 3. Service: good - door girl: terrible - server: never tried any of the stuff and can't recommend anything, didn't tell us the daily specials and when we inquired he had no idea - manager: awesome! 4. ambience: nice. spacious, tall ceiling. Good decor. Great for dates, business dinner or happy hour with colleagues. read more
