Thursday Evening time: 7pm
Coming here for a friend's birthday dinner was the right choice. As well as appetizers and huge meals. In terms of décor the place was
amazingly set, and very thoroughly cleaned. The bathroom did have two toilets next to each other which was creepy... But oh well. Our servers were super attention and accommodating. The only thing that we really had to wait for was the bill and the desserts. He even gave suggestions for food and liquor/cocktail pairing that would go well with the dishes. He also highlighting some interesting choices.
Drinks: The meals were done so well and looked amazing. The espresso martini was served in a small martini cup and the taste was just as strong and as good, as my favorite place. If you like coffee, the wont skimp out on the liquor here. The lychee Rin, was also dazzling, champagne and lychee was an excellent choice, served in a champagne glass.
For food:
I got the salmon tarte that was raw salmon served on avocado slices, topped with yolk and red tobiko. The salmon and avocado paired really well, and tasted great. I wasn't a huge fan of the egg yolk on top but the tobiko, salmon and avocado on a small cracker tasted amazing. The sauce was drizzled on the plate. $15*
The 2 in 1 spicy sushi, wasn't all that spicy. It did have only 6 pieces served with wasabi and pickled ginger. It was delicious, in the sense that the salmon, avocado and tobiko and the spicy taste could be felt with every single bite. The quality of the fish was amazing and displayed neatly. We also didn't have any bad after taste and of course there was more salmon in the roll. This roll cost about $12-14*
The lobster ravioli I decided to make my entrée. The sauce was creamy and rich and each ravioli was stuffed with lobster. The inside did feel a bit dry, so the sauce was much appreciated to coat the lobster stuffing. I did sprinkly some black pepper on my dish, because after awhile the lobster stuffing and sauce got a bit too intoxicating. As in I got really tired of eating it. In came in a huge plate but small bowl. There were about 6-7 pieces of ravioli. In terms of the texture of the ravioli, it was perfectly boiled and served well with some oranges sauce around the plate. Cost: $14-16 (this is really cheap for lobster ravioli!!)
My companions ordered the Skirt Steak, and they really enjoyed it with the mashed potato on the side. It also came with orange slices and some breadsticks. I would say this place is amazing in the image they like to present. The food was so perfectly displayed that it was instantly mouth watering.
For the desserts, we ordered two different ones, the Crème Brulee and the Chocolate Molten Lava Cake. The crème Brulee tasted amazing because the bottom and top part, was burned with some type of alcohol that gave off a good taste. So if you like pudding with some infused liquor into it, this is your go to dessert.
For the Chocolate Molten Lava Cake, the presentation was amazing, like everything else. For my friends birthday they even got a sparkler and we all sang happy birthday to her. The cake didn't taste as amazing. Pretty plain in comparison to the Crème brulee. It's like the cake was missing sugar or something else. It just tasted like a a healthier version of cake with less ingredients like sugar. I could still taste the flour and cocoa powder. When paired with the ice cream it did make the dish a tad bit easier to eat. Each dessert dish was topped with a strawberry and black berry.
I thought the food presentation and décor of the place was very elegant and would give it a 5/5 for the way they presented themselves. Drinks I would also give a 5/5 because they didn't skimp out on the liquor, while also making it bearable. For food, I would rate this place a 4/5 because the dessert was a little off setting and the ravioli a bit. This place would be perfect for a birthday party or an event, even a romantic enough date night could be perfect here. If you are coming here on a date, or an event just remember the prices do look cheap, but after gratitude, tax and the drinks you'll probably end up spending up to $$$. Oh, another highlight that was so cool, was that the check came in a book. read more
